Visible Image June Challenge 'Visible Image has Character', my entry.



Hello again friends and fellow bloggers, and a warm Welcome to my New Followers.

 hopefully, if I find time, I'll do another couple before I go away on my holibobs, yippee  I can't wait !!!!

I decided to do something a little different for this project, and as I had some cardboard hanging around, I thought I'd recycle !!!


Of course I've used loads of my fabulous Visible Image stamps, you can see their full range HERE,
 I don't use Character stamps very often, but I did rather fall in love with these two.


I coloured them using Distress inks.


And I just love the sentiment... which is stamped onto parchment, distressed and the ends rolled. I made the button in my Melt pot...




The dimensions of the cardboard are, 10" (250 cm) wide and 7 1/2" (190 cm ) high, it was given a thick coating of Gesso, and distressed using some Treasure Gold wax. the blue and pink background swirls were achieved by stamping onto a single layer of a tissue, and then glued to the plaque.
 You will also notice, that I used the free 'Visible Image' stamp which is being given away with the July issue of The Craft Stamper magazine.

Sorry about the photo's, I should have used a darker background, but I hope you get an idea of what it looks like, lol !!!!


Thank you again for dropping by, see you next time

Hugs,
Pauline
