Visible Image DT samples


 Today I am showing you 2 stamps from from Visible Image Stamps.


Visible Image Blog Badge, Blinkie

 And for more inspiration don't forget to check out the Visible Image's facebook page, and the Visible Image blog where we have a monthly challenge.  This month's theme is ...


I love Katie, she looks so happy with all those butterflies round her - and would be perfect for this month's Spring challenge.  I coloured her with my pens, and paper pieced the butterflies. I added some flowers I was sent form a lovely crafting friend, a gem swirl and some lace and organza ribbon.  I wouldn't normally mix gems and pearls on a card - but the poorly 8 year old insisted!!!

Challenges:

Flutterby Wednesday - lots of layers
Crafty Ribbons - anything goes with ribbon
 My heart pieces - use three of your favouirte things (lace, pearls, butterflies)
Creative Stamp friends - spring colours
Craft your passion - that's odd


For my second card I carried on with the butterfly theme and used the Large Butterfly.  I stamped it twice and cut it out.  I went for a WoW card, simply embossing the layers, distressing the edges of the cardstock, adding some ribbon and pearls, and then adding one of the butterflies.  I then coloured up the second one using my pens, curled the wings and placed it on top of the first, adding pearls to its centre.  Finally I stamped the Butterfly Sentiment.

 Supplies:
Sentiment: Visible Image Butterfly Sentiment
Colouring Medium: copics
Papers: white cardstock
