Visible Image Stamps, Dylusion paints, Wow Embossing Powder, & Distress Inks.

Hi there,

I thought it was about time I decorated another Visible Image Monolith, they are such fun to do, and there are endless possibilities.

I used one of my fave Visible Image Stamps sets, from the new releases, for this project, it's stunning and I love it, it's called......

Glimmer of Light,

 plus the fabulous Rays of Light, and the Shine Bright set, 

you see the theme, lol !

and of course don't forget the fabulous MDF, which come in a pack of 5......

Monoliths.

I used Dylusion Paints on the front, a Black base, then combination of colours on top, then stamped the Rays, using white Ink, where I wanted the little light bulbs to hang. I then stamped the little bulbs and the sentiment in Black Versafine Ink, and heat embossed the wonderful Moth, onto card , coloured them in using Distress Inks, and fussy cut them all.

I added glossy accents to the bulbs, and Stickles to the Moths.

On the other side, again I painted the MDF in Black, added some paste through a stencil, and when it was dry, used Gilding wax to highlight it.

 I stamped the Ray into Acetate, and heat embossed it in Yellow powder, and the large light bulb, again onto acetate, and heat embossed in Black powder. I stamped some more small light bulbs using Black ink, coloured them and then fussy cut, glued them to the MDF, and used Glossy Accents.

I wasn't happy with the large bulb being black, so using a white pen I highlighted the outline. The Moths were stamped with Stazon, onto Shrink Plastic, and I coloured them with crayons, fussy cut them, then heated and watched the magic happen...... 

I hope I have given you a bit of inspiration on how to decorate the MDF Monoliths.

Lavinia Stamps, Archival Inks, and Stickles.

Hi there,

I'm a little late in posting, as the new Lavinia Stamps, 'Creative Challenge', started last week, the theme this month is......

'Make Something for a Friend'. It is now a Facebook based Challenge, so no need to post to a blog.

Here is my DT inspiration......

In my crafty stash, I had this 6" x 4"  paper-mache wall hanging, in my crafty stash, which has been crying out for some sort of decoration for ages, so I used some yummy Lavinia Stamps on it.

A good coat of gesso was the base, then I blended my inks over it, and stamped using Black Archival ink.

I used pens, Stickles and paint for the details, and also gave the Fairy a set of Acetate wings.

The little 3" x 4" gift card was very easily achieved, with a little blending, and a bit of stamping, and of course some stickles, and some pen work around the edges.

And hey presto, 'Something for a Friend'.

Get you entries in for a chance to win £40 of couchers, to spend on anything in the Lavinia web shop, check it out HERE.

Hugs, Pauline xxxx
