Free your imagination for Visible Image

 Hi everyone, it's time for my fortnightly blogged design team make for Visible Image. Today I am using another of the 3 new stencils from their awesome new release. There are 3 new stencils and 6 new stamp sets which you can check out on the website here. I have made samples with each one and I have been sharing many of my makes over on Instagram so do check that out too. You can find me here @jane.tyrrell  Mine and my fellow DT teamies samples are also being shared by Visible Image over on their social media pages. The links are at the bottom of this post. 

For today's make I used the gorgeous A-Z stencil

with their amazing Free your imagination stamp set to create a Halloween seasonal canvas.

This is what I got up to ; (I actually made several backgrounds in the same way. It's always good to have spares ready made).  I used some inky backgrounds from my stash, put the A-Z stencil in place and blended through Black soot Distress ink

These were all 4 

and below is the one I chose to use.

I stamped the inky bird from  Free your imagination using Versafine clair Nocturne ink and clear heat embossed the image. 

I stamped the book onto white card and added some purple drips using the drips stamp in the set. I also stamped the ink pot from the set and added some purple ink detail using a purple glitter gel pen. I cut both out.

I stamped the book again onto my background for placement and then added the cut out one. I stuck the cut out ink pot in place.

I stamped the sentiment and blended some extra purple to the edges of my canvas using Villainous potion distress ink.

Finally I distressed the edges of my canvas using my distressing tool. It adds some extra texture and interest to the background and is a technique I have always loved to use in my crafting.

I matted it onto white and then black card and for a finishing touch added a few white gel pen details. 

Here is my finished canvas

 I organize a monthly artist trading card swap there.  We celebrated a whole year of swapping in May. Whether you are a new stamper or a seasoned one you are most welcome to join us. Over 105 members, worldwide, have taken part since it started. It's been such fun and it's so lovely to receive a unique piece of art from your partner in the post.

There is no "monthly" commitment, just join in when you have the time and if you live in the UK can you choose to post to the UK only if that suits you best.
