Visible image Winter blue theme - sparkle in the rain

Good evening All!!!

I can't believe how long it's been since my last blog post, an awful lot has happened including a huge house move from London to Norfolk!!
This year my aim is to record more demos on upload them onto my YouTube channel. So if you'd like to check that out please follow the link below.


This card and ATC was made for January's winter blues ATC swap over on the visible image group.


Cut a piece of card slightly smaller than a 4x6 card blank.
Sprinkle a small amount of elf pretty gets gritty explosion powder on your messy met and spray with water. Smooch your card into the mixture then dry with a heat gun. Go in a second time and pick some more inky mixture up on the card and dry with heat gun. You can repeat this step until you're happy with the outcome.
Use a blending brush to darken the edges of the card with uncharted mariner Distress Oxide.


Stamp the rain from 'sparkle in the rain' stamp set in uncharted mariner repeatedly over the whole card.


Stamp the lady image and sentiment in VersaFine Clair - twilight ink and emboss with ultrafine clear embossing powder.
Use a torn piece of scrap paper and lay it over the top section of the card, use a blending brush with uncharted mariner to create a horizon line so it looks like the lady is actually standing on the ground and not floating in the air.
Stamp the water puddles in VersaFine Clair twilight.


Add some white highlights using a white sakura pen.


Mount the card topper onto a piece of dark navy card then onto your 4x6 card blank.


As you can see I also made a matching ATC. In order to fit the text on the ATC I snipped the words out and mounted them randomly.
