Birthday Cake Stamps | Handmade Card

Posted on October 23, 2021October 23, 2021 by helen

Hello! Thanks for visiting our blog today. Lynda is back with a fabulous handmade card created with the Birthday cake stamps from our *NEW* BLOW OUT THE CANDLES stamp set..

Today I am sharing a birthday card using the wonderful new ‘Blow Out The Candles’ stamp set from Visible Image.

My favourite type of cake is chocolate cake, so I had to cook that up first with this set! Plus, I wanted to steer clear of the classic pink frosting and show how this stamp can used to include the cake loving men in your life!

I started with a distress oxide background, laid the ‘Drizzle’ stencil across the top and spread Izink Ice through it in brown.

While that dried I used my Zig markers to colour the cake.

More Ice on the top gave the cake a gooey chocolatey look. Yummy!

Before this dried, I sprinkle some ultra fine gold glitter over the top.

I stamped and coloured the candles, and stamped and heat embossed the spark on acetate to mount behind the flame.

Once everything was dry I mounted with 3D gel glue and added the sentiment.

This really is a must have set for the collection. After all, everybody loves cake!!

Oh my that cake looks good enough to eat! Gorgeous card and loving the effects of the Izink ice on the background and cake! The sparkle stamp looks superb embossed on acetate too. Thank you Lynda ♡

Design Team Intro | Jane Tyrrell

Posted on April 5, 2021April 6, 2021 by helen

Hello! We hope you are enjoying the lovely long Easter weekend! It’s an exciting week here at Visible Image as we start to introduce our amazing and much bigger Design Team, who will be inspiring you with a mix of tutorials here on our blog, photos over on instagram, and also with some fabulous videos!

First up is…

Jane Tyrrell

Jane is on our BLOGGING TEAM!

Many of you will have already got to know Jane who has been with us for almost 5 years now! We love how Jane interprets our stamps and sentiments so brilliantly, and her compositions are always full of wonderful inkiness and fabulous layers!

I have been paper crafting since the early 1990’s and stamping has always been my first love. I love getting very inky and working and designing with mixed media. I always enjoy experimenting and trying out new ideas and products. Since retiring from my medical career in 2016 I am lucky enough to be able to be to be creative virtually every day.

For today’s make I was inspired by my “not going to happen big birthday plans”. I had a big birthday last Thursday and all the plans we made a few years ago have gone out of the window courtesy of Mr Corona.

We had planned a celebratory trip and a lovely meal out, but as that wasn’t going to happen I created an imaginary “sunshine holiday” birthday on a canvas. A girl can still dream can’t she? Confused…. well that’s how my creative brain works. All will be revealed…

I worked with these sets:

the birthday sentiment from Lost for Words

sentiment stamps | greeting cards | handmade | stamping

Random Art of Kindness

quirky flower stamps | hope | kindness | sentiments

and the Count Me In stencil

This is what I got up to;

I added drops of picked raspberry, squeezed lemonade and crackling campfire distress reinker to a rectangle of water colour card and added water using my distress sprayer.

Once dry I added these distress inks through the Count Me In stencil

count me in stencil | numbers | distress inks

I also machine stitched around the edge of the card

Next I created a circle frame for my flowers using 3 die cut scallop circle edges

I stamped the flowers from the Random Art Of Kindness set onto inky mop up card and cut them out. I decoupaged the centers of the circular ones and adding glitter pen details to them all for extra sparkle.

I then glued them around the circle frame.

I stamped the birthday sentiment onto card and stitched a border. I also did this to a coloured card mat and stuck them together.

I glued this into the centre of the floral circle.

I made a corrugate card base for my canvas by adding a little red ink and then some embossing powders to it for extra detail and texture

I ripped off some of the covering and used a brush to add embossing ink to areas around the visible edges only.

I sprinkled in the powders and heat embossed them from underneath.

Then I matted the finished canvas onto blue card, adhered it to the base and added sprinkle of sequins to finish.

Job done!

Here it is…you might need sun glasses!

Time To Celebrate | T-Shirt Card

Posted on March 9, 2021March 9, 2021 by helen

Hello! We are back with lots more new stamps inspiration for you this week! Jane has made an awesome card with our NEW T-shirt stamp and ‘Time To Celebrate’ sentiment on a brilliant graffiti background…

Good Evening, I am back showcasing another make using stamps from the brand new Visible Image release.

Today my make uses the incredibly versatile Nothing to Wear stamp set. The t shirt stamp can be used for so many occasions and in so many styles, as there are lots of extra little stamps to personalise it with. I decided to go for a “Graffiti/rock” look (think 1975 when I was a heavy rock chic..yes seriously..LOL).

This is what I got up to

I made a graffiti background using more products that I can list. This was a mix of acrylic inks and sprays plus some paint all thrown in for good measure!

In real life there is lots of texture and sparkle in here!

To contrast with my background I made a white T shirt, adding the lips and word Rock.

I coloured the words in with Zig watercolour markers, added a little red to the lips and my signature glossy accents…they are so juicy and glossy in real life!

I have had my sewing machine out for these makes so I sewed some backgrounds for my sentiment and put my design together.

Here it is

Supplies

There will be lots more makes shared in the coming weeks using this fab new release, so do check out the Visible Image Facebook group and social media.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Bye for now,

Wowza! What an awesome background to go with the rock + lips on the t-shirt stamp! So cool! And yes the lips look amazing!!! Thank you Jane ♡

time to celebrate t-shirt card

Hello! We have stempelfrida here on the blog today with a beautiful card created with our Butterfly stencil and the ‘It’s Your Birthday’ stamp from our new LOST FOR WORDS set…

Ohhh, Visible Image has a brand new release this month. And what shall I say? The stamps are awesome! I’m going to start today with a set that truly isn’t the first to catch your eye, because some sets in the release are just “bang”. But I fell in love with this one right away. These are texts, which use quite simple words for purposes that you can use frequently. I’m always looking for texts like this, actually. And now finally I have this wonderful set that shows them in such great fonts. You can view the whole set in the supplies list further down.

Today I present you the birthday greeting on the butterfly, which I made with a stencil and a shaving foam technique.

So let’s first get to the technique with the shaving cream. In a shallow bowl I sprayed shaving foam (the cheapest I could find), flattened the mass a bit and dripped a few drops of Refiller into the foam. I then mixed these with a wood pin. This looks so yummy!!!

I have applied this mass with cardboard to the white background cardboard, which I had covered with the stencil. Excess foam I took off again and dabbed all the rest off gently. After that I let everything dry well.

The edges of the butterfly, the splashes and the body I have emphasized with Polychromos pens.

I stamped the birthday sentiment with a matching shade on the motif. At the edges I drew the stitches and then matted the image on a yellow-orange card.
