Orange Christmas – for Visible Image

19 augusti, 2015 Lisa Nygårds

Oh, hey, wait…. is that orange? With a touch of turquoise?
Yep! It is, and it is a christmas card!! LOL Why not? Got a crazy feeling of mixing some non traditional christmas colors and I think it become pretty nice! It’s my day over at Visible Image and I’ve played with some new and some old Christmas stamps. The orange (cool huh?) card is made with brand new stamps. Snowflake is from the set called White Christmas, and the beautiful sentense is called Christmas Memories.

I’ve worked on watercolor paper and just randomly dripped color from mist bottles in orange and turquoise / teal colors. Dryed and dripped again and round up with just mists of water. Continue until you like what you see… not more complicated than that.

I stamped my snowflakes and the sentense and then draw a frame (line) around my square of color. Finally I added glitter glue to the snowflakes to have them sparkle.

For the brownish card I actually used my spray mists as mists! It’s gold and some moss green blended. I dried it with my heat gun and stamped the Christmas Colllage on top. As the paper it’s a bit rough the image will be a bit “distressed”, just keep that in mind! Finished it up with glitter tape and a button.

Då var man igång med julkorten, fyra gjorda hittills i år… haha! Har kört med lite otippade färger, men jösses så skoj det är! Länkarna till varje motiv jag använt hittar ni i texten ovan, eller så botaniserar ni helt enkelt på Visible Images hemsida och klickar hem det ni gillar. Finns massor av härliga stämplar. Och det tål att upprepas – jag har aldrig stött på clear stamps i så bra kvalitet som dom har! Tjocka, stadiga och välgjorda.

Words and colors for Visible Image

15 juli, 2015 Lisa Nygårds

Since colors are so fun to play with, I can’t stop with just one card. The new sentiments are so perfect for stamping on a colorful background. I’ve played with different kinds of mist colors, but not the regular way (misting). I’ve wet the paper (watercolor paper) and then dripped and wiggled the color around. Dripped some more color, dried it, dripped some water on it and more color and another round until I liked it. It can’t be wrong, let the colors guide you!

Then the best part, to find a sentiment that match up with what I’ve created. Now I have several lovely new ones from Visible Image to play with so it became three cards today!

The sentiments used: Lilac card: Take the moment. Brown/Blue card: A best friend. Green card: Stay Strong.

*************************

Idag har jag inte mindre än tre färgglada kort att bjuda på!
När man väl börjar leka med färger så går det liksom inte att sluta. Med dom nya textstämplarna från Visible Image så blir det extra skoj att försöka matcha in en text med det man fått ihop. Länkarna till texterna hittar ni i det engelska stycket ovan.
