Visible Image Stamps, Brusho's, Distress Inks, Wow Embossing powder & Stickles.




Hi there,

I hope you are all well, I'm here again to share a card I created, 
using an awesome Visible Image Stamp set.



The stamp set I used was......

I used Brusho's for the background, and stamped the head in Distress inks, the Dream catcher was stamped onto Heat resistant Acetate, and heat embossed using a Black powder, I also stamped the sentiment and heat embossed it with Black powder, then highlighted it using a white pigment pen.
 I coloured on the back of the Dream Catcher, using Alcohol ink pens, and went over the colour with white gesso, to make it pop, fussy cut it out, before adding it to the card, using 3D glue gel. I added some Stickles for a bit of bling.

Visible Image Stamps and Monolith, Pebeo Dyna Paints, Fantasy Film & Stickles.



Hey there,

Another week, another Visible Image Monolith, I seem to be a bit addicted to them at the moment, lol !!!!!
Because I always decorate both sides, it's just like making two cards really, you can turn them around to suit your mood, which I love, I shall definitely be making some as Christmas Pressies !!!! 


The stamps I used on this side of the Monolith were.....
The Month from Glimmer Of LightLive in the Moment and Shine Bright, which is unfortunately out of stock at the moment.

This side of the MDF, I put a coat of white gesso on. I stamped the Dragonfly onto some card using Blue Archival Ink, and fussy cut them, then glues them onto the primed MDF, and painted over them with some blue Dyna paint. The Moth was stamped using Stazon ink, onto a foil sweet wrapper, yes you read right, lol, I'm a crafter so I'm always looking for something new to use !!!!
The light bulb was achieved, using Stazon and Fantasy film, and the sentiment was heat embossed with gold powder, and added gold glitter all around the edges.


On the other side, I painted the MDF with gold Dyna paint, added some paste through a stencil, and when it was dry, I stamped the jumping girl straight onto the painted MDF with Versamark, and heat embossed using black powder.
On some heat resistant Acetate, I stamped the girl again using Versamark, and heat embossed using Blue sparkle powder. I added blue glitter all around the edges of the Monolith.

If you live near the Craftrange Shop in Burnley, Lancashire, I am hosting an Inky Workshop there on Saturday 12th November, 10.15am - 4.15pm. £30 per person.

Visible Image Stamps, Distress Inks, Wow Embossing Powder and Stickles.



Hello again,

Where on earth do these weeks fly to, and it's gone so Autumnal too,
so I thought as it's getting closer, I would make a couple of 'C' cards, I won't actually write the word, as it is a bit early !!!!!!
So using some fabulous Visible Image Stamps, I made these two cards.....


I used the same Visible Image stamp sets for both cards.......

I used Distress Inks for the background, stamping the large Ray with versamark and heat embossed with Wow gold Sparkle EP. I stamped all the trees and Santa, again using Distress Inks, and sparkled them using Stickles in different colours. White glue and glitter makes the snow.



I used Black card for this one, again heat embossing the Ray, also the Santa, but with a silver powder. The snow is white card, layered, with heat embossed trees, on heat resistant acetate, and red Stickles as an accent.

Some Visible Image places of interest......
