Visible Image Stamps, Lindy Stamp Gang 'Starburst' Spay inks, Wow EP, Distress Inks & Stickles.



Hellooooo,

I hope you are all well, and as there has been rather a lot of rain lately, I thought that my 'Visible Image Stamps' inspiration this week, should emulate the weather, lol, so I used their awesome 'Sparkle in the Rain' stamp set.




I started off with a piece of A4 white card, and gave it a spray with a Purple and a Lemon 'Starbust' spray ink, from Lindy's Stamp Gang, super vibrant colours which are full of lovely mica, making a fabulous glimmer. I then cut my card, to fit a 6" card blank. I used the rain stamp and the puddle stamp with some versamark, and heat embossed with some 'Sparkling Snow' powder, by Wow.
On some heat resistant acetate, using Versamark, some Black Wow Embossing powder, and the Lady Stamp, I heat embossed, and fussy cut it, adding yellow Stickles to her Umbrella and her boots.


On some more white card, I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment, fussy cut it, then coloured it with some Distress Inks.


Still a couple of weeks to enter the 'Show & tell', for a chance to win a £25 voucher, to spend on luscious new Visible Image goodies.

Visible Image Stamps, Wow Embossing powder, Dylusions Acrylic paints, Distress Inks & Wink of Stella pen.



Hellooooo,

I'm back again, to share another creation using some more awesome
I demonstrated this card, whilst on Create & Craft USA TV, so I don't think the UK saw it, but sorry if you have.


The stamp sets I used for this card were.....
the moths, light-bulb and sentiment are from the Glimmer of Light set, and the background circles are from the Ripple Effect set.

This card is very easy to achieve, and also a lot of fun, but it can get a bit messy, lol !!!

Starting with a piece of Black card, I swiped over it with an anti-static bag, then stamped the large Ripple effect stamp, using Versamark, then I heat embossed it using a Wow white powder.
Then the fun bit, using a paint brush I flicked white acrylic paint, over the whole card, and then did it again using some yellow acrylic paint, I left this to dry naturally.
On a separate piece of pale yellow card, I stamped the light-bulb, the sentiment, and fussy cut them, and on a piece of white card, using different coloured Distress inks, I stamped 10 or so small moths, and fussy cut these out too.
I put the card together as above, and to finish off I used a clear Wink Of Stella pen to give the moths a shimmer.

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.
