Lavinia Stamps, Candy Box Crafts MDF Vintage Frame, Wow EP, Distress Inks, & Stickles.



Hi there,

The April Lavinia Challenge has started, the theme is 'Glitter it',
 you have until the 28th April 2016, to get your entries in HERE, for a chance to win £40 worth of goodies of your choice, from their website.
You don't need to have a blog to enter, it's all worked from Facebook, but please read the rules.

Here is my DT inspiration........


Made using Distress inks for the background and the flowers, and stamped with Versafine Black ink, on the main images.
The stamps I used on this card are.......







This fabulous Vintage Triple Frame is from Candy Box Crafts, which I painted using cheap tester pots, and some Cosmic Shimmer Crackle Glaze, I then decorated the back using some 'Sweet Poppy Stencils'  and some Distress inks, and on the front, I used Embossing powder and heat embossed, coloured and cut out the images, and glued them on using Glue gel, then loaded on the Stickles, unfortunately the photo's don't show the sparkle.

These are the stamps I used........

Hugs, Pauline xxxxx

Visible Image Stamps, Distress inks and Wow Embossing Powder.




Hello there,

Gosh it's Friday again, the weeks seem to go so fast. 
Today's share is a card I made with some awesome Visible Image Stamps
and look, there's no pink !!!!!!


The stamps I used are.......

I blended a couple of Distress inks together on the background, and randomly stamped the Tangled Tape using Black Versafine ink. 
Using a separate piece of card, I stamped the Cassette, using Versamark and heat embossed with Black embossing powder, and fussy cut.
On a smaller piece of card, which I'd coloured with distress inks beforehnd, I stamped the sentiment, again using Versamark, and heat embossing.
I positioned the Cassette at the corner of the card, and used the pieces that I cut off, on each side of the card, so no wastage !!!!

Do give these Visible Image places a visit......

Mark Alexander and I, will be on Create & Craft TV on Saturday 16th April at 1pm, I hope you'll join us for some more inky fun.

Thank you for popping in, hugs, Pauline xxxx

Visible Image Stamps, Distress inks, Wow Embossing Powder & Stickles.



Helloooo,

Another week has passed, and I'm back with another project using some of the fantastic new stamp designs from Visible Image.


The stamps I used on this card are.....

I heat embossed the shapes, and used Distress Inks to colour and shade, and of course a Pauline card, wouldn't be a Pauline card, without a bit of sparkle, so I added some Stickles !!!!

Visible Image Stamps, Visible Image Monolith, Pebeo Dyna acrylic paints, Grunge paste, Wow embossing powder.



Hello there,

Welcome to my bloggie, I was again very lucky to have one of my
 Visible Image Monoliths, showcased in the latest ( April 2016 ) edition of the Craft Stamper magazine.


I do love decorating the Monoliths, you get two sides to play with !!! 
On this one I used the Visible Image small Inkognito Flower, which is free with the magazine, a definite must have, I also used the Flower Inkognito set.

I painted the MDF using the Dyna paints in 3 colours, got some grunge paste which had some gold mica powder added to it, and using a palette knife added it through a stencil. The flowers were stamped and heat embossed onto acetate, and painted, and I fashioned a vase again using acetate.


The other side of the monolith, was painted in the same way, more flowers on acetate, and the sentiment used was Me Time.

I hope you'll grab some of the fabulous Visible Image Monoliths, they are such fun to play with, endless possibilities.

Do enter the March Show & Tell, for a chance to win some awesome stamps.
