Visible Image April Challenge

Its time for April's challenge over at the Visible Image blog.  The theme this month is a really easy one - Get Stamping!  We are also introducing a simple rule - you MUST use rubber stamping - no digi stamps allowed.

Visible Image Blog Badge, Blinkie
I made a tag ...
I coloured the large rose from the Roses set in using my copics, and then cut it out and distressed the edges in vintage photo distres ink. I used spun sugar, tea dye and walnut stain distress inks, and tattered roe and gold glimmer mists to distress the tag, before crating the collage effect using the bronte border, butterfly and gothic corner stamps.  I added some lace, pearls and seam binding and then popped the ose onto 3d pads.

One lucky winner will get a £10.00 voucher to spend on Visible image stamps - how fab is that?!
For more inspiration don't forget to check out the Visible Image's facebook page.

Your tag is lovely and it has such a great vintage feel to it. The rose is beautifully colored and I love the stamps you've used for the background too! I spotted your tag on MIM.
