Hope and love

Good morning. Happy new Visible Image year. I am back today with my first design team post of 2021 for Visible Image. Before I share that make I also wanted to share one other make. Despite the lovely month long DT holiday we enjoyed I always love creating with my Visible Image products. You may have seen the card below I made for my son to greet the year using Phoenix rising on social media. If you would like to see my makes on Instagram you can find me here.

It was an adaption of the design I made for the November launch of the new stamps. It really has to be "the" set to use for this year and all the current world issues with the Pandemic.

So back to my DT make.....We have a challenge running over in our customer Facebook page called "Hope and Colour "where we would like you to use inspiring words and bright colours. It would be great to see you join us, all the details are at the bottom of this post. There is a whopping £40 coupon prize for 1st place and 2 runner up prizes of £25 coupons. All winners are drawn randomly so everyone has a chance to win and you can enter as many times as  you like!

For some inspiration for the challenge I decided to work with these 3 awesome, and very relevant for 2021, stamp sets.

Love is love 

and the hope sentiment from the Equality hope and love set.
This is what I got up to ;

I made a very simple Brushos background using rose red sprinkled some onto watercolour card which I had wetted first with my distress sprayer. Once dry I stamped the sentiment in place. 
I then stamped in black Archival and clear embossed the insects from  Summer wings onto acetate coloured with alcohol inks. I fussy cut them out.
I stamped in black and clear embossed the left handed face from Love is love onto a piece of inky mop up card and cut it out.

I coloured in a few of the elements with watercolour pens, adding glossy accent to some of the circles. I then put everything together. 

Here is my finished card.

with a couple of close ups

 and one final shot
