Visible image DT card

 Today I am showing you a Vintage style card I made using a selection of stamps from Visible Image Stamps.

Visible Image Blog Badge, Blinkie
I stamped Clara onto kraft cardstock using cocoa memento ink, and then coloured her in using my copics.  I stamped round the edge of her using the grunge flourish stamp, and then added some frantage. I distressed all the edges of my cardstock. I used the latest edition to the background stamps, Ripped Fishnet, and stamped it in sepia over kraft cardstock.  I used the edge of the grunge flourish stamp to edge the left hand side of the card, before stitching round it all. I stamped the mens collage stamp in sepia again and added it behind Clara.  Finally I added lace, flowers and gingham ribbon.

 I have made an acordian card ...
I die cut the sections to make the accordian card and then stamped round the outer edges using the grunge flourish stamp and Victorian velvet distress ink.  I cut the mats using Prima papers. 

  I stamped the Large Butterfly, butterfly and rose onto kraft cardstock,and cut them out. I simply added lace or seam binding to the mats, and a cut out image.  I used pearls to decorate the sections.
For the last page I stamped the More than words sentiment in verdafine sepai and simply added a bow and some pearls.

I stamped the Large Butterfly onto kraft cardstock, coloured it in using my copics and then cut it out.  I matted the dp onto the kraft cardstock and then stitched it, before adding ribbon and lace.  I tied a bow and added a button and twine to it.  I stamped the Dream sentiment directly onto the dp, and also stamped the butterfly onto the card, before adding the butterfly.  Finally I added some pearls.

Clara and Edgar from Visible image

Today I am showing you the gorgeous Clara and Edgar from Visible Image Stamps.


Visible Image Blog Badge, Blinkie

I adore this steampunk couple, and having masked Clara and stamped Edgar next to her, I coloured them in with my pens.  The dp is Bo Bunny, and I distressed and stitched it.  The postcard is a LOTV stamp, and I stamped it onto kraft cardstock before distressing it.  I added lace and a ribbon and bow - not that it shows much after all the embellishments!!  I have a slight obsession with frantage, so the button and Hobbycutz lasercut fancy flourish have been frantaged in aged wine.  Finally a couple of Hobbycutz steampunk gears and some flowers and pearls, oh and stickles at the couple's feet.

Visible Image butterfly

 Today I am showing you the large butterfly stamp from Visible Image Stamps.


Visible Image Blog Badge, Blinkie

I wanted to create a soft, unfussy vintage card and the Large Butterfly is perfect for this.  I stamped the butterfly onto blue cardstock and cut it out.  I simply embossed the crumb cake cardstock, and added a panel of patterned paper.  After adding lace, I added the floral oval, some pearls and the butterfly.
