Upcycling | Visible Image Stamps
Hi there! We have a new challenge running over in our Facebook group and the theme is Upcycling! Jane Tyrrell is here on the blog today with some fantastic inspiration using tomato tins…
I had a look in my recycling box and this is what I found… an empty tin of tomatoes
In my studio I use the rather attractive Pizza Express passata tins to store lots of my crafting accessories including pens, brushes etc. I decided that I would decorate my tin for some more crafting bits.
I removed the label, measured the length and width of the tin (between the rounded end plates) and cut a piece of card. I added 1 cm onto the length of a piece of card for a small overlap.
I also added some extra “circles” using the stamp from my
Guardian Angel set
Once I got my stamps out I decided to also decorate one of my other tins so I stamped up 2 new “labels”. I stamped using Versafine Clair Nocture and clear embossed.
I added some extra circles using the stamps in the Guardian angel set.
I masked the eyes and added Brushos, rose red and violet to 1 label and Paperartsy Violetta Infusions to the other.
Then I removed the masks to reveal the whites of the eyes.
I coloured the pupils using glitter pens.
The clarity of Visible Image stamps really are second to none..
Finishing touches included white pen accents and glitter layer pen to some of the circles.
I then attached the labels to the tins using red line tape;
And here they are;
And also back in my studio already filled!
and one last shot

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Stay safe and stay creative.
Bye for now,

Wow these are so awesome! The brushos and infusions make stunning backgrounds for our eye stamp, and the pots look perfect filled with all your brushes and pens!
