Visible Image new February release

The days are definitely getting lighter which is wonderful. There is also lots of spring colour around. I saw all these lovely  primula recently in a garden centre. There is nothing quite like some bold colours to cheer up a dull February day.

 Today I am delighted to be sharing my first card made with one of the stamp sets from the brand new Visible Image release. This release is available to pre order now on the Visible Image web site here. Release date is Feb 15. From that date you will also be able to buy the whole release from your nearest stamp shop or on line supplier. 

I decided to work with the  awesome Free your imagination. As soon as I saw this set I knew what I wanted to design and I could not wait to get it out of my head!

I made myself an inky drippy background using distress oxide inks in rainbow colours adding lots of water.

When it was dry I stamped my bird in place using Versafine black ink.

Next I stamped and cut out a couple of the books and layered one up.
I added book pages to the inside of one layer

and used an inky off cut to stamp the top pages. I added a foam pad for dimension. I also stamped out 3 ink pots and coloured them to match the ink drips.

I let one of the ink pots spill out from under the bird. 

So here is my finished card.

I really did let my imagination go wild with this one. I hope you might be temped to do the same! I have lots more ideas for this set too.
