Stay Strong - Visible Image




Hello Friends

Welcome back to my blog! Here is a card I made with the lovely Visible Image stamps. 

I made this really easy watercolour card. I used this stamp that I LOVE called Stay Strong.

I will say it again I love this sentiment. It really just speaks for itself!

Have you ever had one of those days, weeks, months, years where you just need to hear this?

Well here it is your wee bit of encouragement for the day :) 

To make this card I just got some watercolour paper. 
 I stamped the image with versamark ink and then heat embossed with white embossing powder. Then I chose two colours from my Peerless Watercolours.
I love these watercolours as they are so vibrant.
 I picked two of my favourite colours lime green and turquoise.
 I started by wetting the paper in the shape of a circle then applied the colours randomly. 
Don't worry if the paint goes outside it actually makes is more organic looking.
These watercolours blend so beautifully you don't have to do anything else.
  Once it was dry I distressed the edges then attached it on to a black card base. 
How easy is that???? It is a very simple card to make if you want to try it :) 

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Unity & Misti Blog Hop

Hello My lovelies :) Welcome to the Unity and Misti blog hop! I  hope you are enjoying seeing all of the projects so far. I just had my first wee play with the Misti tool the other day. It is a very new to me tool and wow do I LOVE it!! It is awesome! Just for the simplest of things like positioning a stamp.  One time is all you need with the Misti!! I am not one of those crafters that gets my stamped images crisp first time. I usually have wasted a card or two before I end up with a perfect image. This tool totally eliminates all of that.  Here is my very first card that I made with the Misti tool and Unity stamps.  I used a stamp called  Scattered Pieces . I LOVE this stamp and the sentiments that come with it.  I positioned the feather and the sentiment at the same time on the Misti.  I totally love that you can do that too!  It lets you stamp several at once instead of just eye b...

Happy Valentine's Day - Craft Stamper Inspiration

Hello my friends happy Valentine's Day!  I made this stamped jar for my inspiration project for the  Craft Stamper Challenge today.  This is my husband's old coffee jar that was heading to the recycling bin. I always like to save them and make something with them.  I gave it a couple of coats of white chalk paint and let it air dry. Next I stamped it with memento ink.  The stamp I used is from Unity called  Smooches and Stuff  by Phyllis Harris.  I just love all of her art work. I let that completely dry then used my alcohol markers to colour it.  While I was at the craft store I found this nice heart kraft ribbon in the Valentine section.  I tied it around the top to finish.  I love the way it turned out. I hope you have some time to come and join in this month's challenge with us.  As always we have wonderful prizes up for grabs.  All of the details ca...
