Visible Image Christmas stamps and stencils release 2020

Good morning it's time for my fortnightly design team post for Visible Image. Today I am delighted to be blogging my first sample using their new Christmas stamps and stencils which are on pre order now on their website for worldwide release this Friday, 18 September.

For my first make I decided to make a mixed media card. I used;

Scribbled star 

   the sentiment from the 

Iconic Christmas stencil

and the tiny stars from 

 

This is what I got up to;

I made an inky background by pressing these distress inks onto my craft mat, adding some spritzes of water and then dipping in my card, drying between layers.

I applied crackle texture paste through the stencil and left to dry. You will see the crackle in the final photos, the photo below is when it is wet. When the crackle was dry I painted it with gold metallic paint which again you can see in the final photos. 

I stamped the star onto gold card in black Versafine and clear embossed. I then cut out the centre of the star stamp.

I stamped and embossed the star a second time onto the inky background below the stenciled sentiment  and then stuck on the cut out gold star using foam tape to raise it slightly.  Using gold ink I repeat stamped the tiny starts from the O Christmas tree set. 

I then matted it up using blue and black card onto a 7"  square white card blank. Here is my finished card;

with some close ups

and one final shot.

These gorgeous new Christmas stamps and stencils lend themselves to any card making style from mixed media to clean and simple.
