'Emma' by Visible Image - Sample for Creata show on Create&Craft

Ive been busy making samples for Creata again this week and i could not resist making a card with ht e very beautiful 'Emma' stamp from Visible Image who are a company who make polymer stamps who i found by chance and fell in love with - so much so that i get drawn like a magnet ever payday to their brilliant website looking for more stamps to add to my growing collection xxx I fins their stamps so addictive to use and so perfect is the image every time i stamp - I have recommended them to all my fellow stamping friends,

I have coloured 'Emma' with promarkers in colours that match my choice of papers and cardstock from my Creata DT kit - whenever i use flowers and pretty papers i cant help but think of Emma xx

please go along to Visible Image for a visit and see if you will fall in love with their stamps as i did

'Max' by Visible Image

I have made a lot of cards this week some for DT work for Carley Duff from Creata, Some for DT work for Sherri Baldi Stamps and a few for family and friends but one of my faves is the one i am sharing with you tonight xx its a simple card but very different from my normal cards as i fancied a change and i love my new stamps from 'Visible Image' xx

I folded an A6 card blank using pearlescent cardstock. i then cut a piece of navy classic line paper (from creata) a few mm smaller than the cardblank attached this to the cardfront with double sided tape. i then cut a piece of black mirror board a few mm smaller again, then embossed with a checkerboard embossing folder . I stamped the 'Max' stamp onto neenah card and coloured with promarkers in shades of grey, blue and brown. i then matted with navy metallic textured cardstock (from creata) and attached to card front with foam tape. The Greeting is a rub on (from creata) with i matted again onto the navy mettalic textured card and attached with two layers of foam tape.

i was very chuffed to see this card on display on the 'Creata with Carley' on Create&Craft this Thursday xx

I hope you like my card as much as i liked making it

Angelica & Friends (first make) x

My lovely new set of stamps and the cdrom arrived yesterday and i could not resist making something with them straight away ...

First i printed out one of the card companions from the disc and a matching backing paper - i made my own 15cm square card blank from a sheet of A4 centura pearl in ivory, and used my ultimate pro for scoring and measuring.

I matt & layered the backing paper with gold mirror board and attached to front of card with strong double sided tape and then repeated this with the main topper part of the cad companion sheet.

the Stamped image was stamped using Memento ink onto Neenah cardstock, coloured with a mix of Spectrum noirs and promarkers. i then trimmed the image down to make a topper and matt and layered with matchng backing paper and more mirror board.

I chose 2 sheets of coredinations cardstock to match the colours in the stamped image and used my crafterscompanion quilling dies and leaves to create the flower embellishment which i attached to front of card using glossy accents.

Added some gems to flower centere and corner of the topper.

I am entering this card into Sheila Ruxburgh's Challenge on her blog

Bestie Challenge #3 Entry

 I am entering this card in the Bestie's Challenge Blog! xx

I made this card by scoring an A4 piece of Centura Pearl cardstock in half to make an A5, ive used light blue pearlescent card as a matt background. The floral paper is from Creata glittered pads ive matt&layered this with silver mirror board- i picked a light brown ribbon which colour matches with the floral and tided this around the card front. the topper is made with a creata large oval die which i ran through my joy machine twice once with darkl brown mirror board and once with silver mirror board - i used the inner die cut silver mirror and attached my chosen digi 'dorothy' (coloured with spectrum noirs and cut outso fits onto the mirror) covered over this image with brown organza. i attached both ovals to front of card using glue gel. ive then cut out several flower and swirl die cuts using more creata dies (using scraps from the same cardstocks and papers). I typed and printed my own sentiment and matt and layered this again with matchig papers.

i am very chuffed to have been picked to work with 'My Besties' DT xxx
