Visible Image Challenge - Time to Reflect - Tando Creative Cuckoo Clock

Happy New Year everyone!! A new year, new month and a new challenge over at Visible Image! It's "Time to Reflect" ...

I have used the cuckoo clock of Tando Creative and many many stamps of Visible Image.

Of course I have used my favorite colors. First I have cut a piece of paper, stamped the bigger rose (you can find the stamps used at the bottom of the post) with Versamark and colored the whole piece with Pan Pastels. Then I glued the frame on PP of Prima Marketing and cut it out, distressed it and stamped the brick wall onto. I stamped Isabella & Edward on a separate piece of paper, colored them and cut them out ... they were glued with 3D foam pads to the clock.

Tando Creative - Wintermoon

Again I was inspired by the song "wintermoon" by In Strict Confidence

I have used the beautiful Rectangular Panel Frame of Tando Creative which comes in three seperate layers so you could build up layers perfectly. I kept mine simple and only cut small pieces of paper, stamped them und colored everything with Distress Ink and White Gel Pen. The angel is glued down on some packaging of Tando Creative and cut out - even these packagings are great to use!! The little shimmering on the frame comes from Distress Stickles Rock candy.

Visible Image Sunday - Christmas Tag

Hello, today is Sunday again and you know what that means :)

I have a Christmas tag for you which I have created with the wonderful Visible Image stamps and a Tando Creative Chipboard.

The background of the tag  was made with the Joined Snowflakes mask of Tando Creative, then I stamped Gaudete Background, the snowman is a stamp of Tim Holtz, stamped with Archival Ink and embossed with crystal clear. Now I stamped the Snowy Background with Versamark and embossed it with gold. The sentiment was stamped on a seperate piece of paper, torn out and sponged with Distress Ink. In the right corner above I have stamped the Grunge Flourish (can't live without it ;)). At last I covered the butterfly with UTEE and stamped Snowy Background into.

Please also take a look at the wonderful stamps in the Visible Image Onlineshop. And hop over to the Visible Image Blog and/or join us in the Visible Image Facebook Group!

In the land of Giants

At the moment I'm really busy creating DT projects, ATCs for our Halloween-Swap at Fun with ATCs and the December Daily for a workshop ... but I had to play with my new stamps and made this tag just for fun - and for the challenge at Simon Says.

one time the tag looked like this

and now: 

stamps are from Dylusions, Designs by Ryn and stampingback (?)

Halloween Tag I

Today I made this Halloween tag ... I used almost only Tim Holtz products but of course I had to add these cute Halloween chipboards from Tando Creative.

First I covered the Tag with an old bookpage and covered it with Distress Stains Old Paper. After drying I embossed it with the bricks. Now I gently sponged over the tag to highlight the bricks. Then I embossed it a second time - now with the tree and went over the tree with Distress Ink Walnut Stain.

I stamped the images, cut out the bird and used 3d foams to add it to the tag.

The tree is covered with Distress Stickles vintage photo and the bats, the bird and the spider are covered with Distress Stickles rock candy.

I colored the Chipboards with Distress Stains black soot. The eyes of the bat are made with a Sakura Pen. Then I brushed with my finger a little treasure silver over the net and the tag.

Last but not least I have colored the silver ribbon with black AAI.
