Visible Image February Challenge


Morning all.

It's time for a new challenge over at Visible Image and we have a love-ly challenge for you this month. Can you guess what it might be?! Yes, that's right it's 

Love

The winner can choose £20 worth of stamps from the Visible Image site and with so many fabulous stamps to choose from the winner will be spoiled for choice.

You must use at least one Visible Image stamp on your creation.

Now this week our lovely Suze got married and I decided to send her a card. I knew her wedding colours were red and black so that was the colours chosen! 

I've used the fabulous The One stamp and once I had stamped the verse I used the smaller of the two roses from the Immortal Love set. Fairly simple you would think. Ah. No. I had about 347 attempts before I finally got something I was happy with. I ended up stamping the rose image off 3 times before actually stamping it over the top of the sentiment.  I used the barbed wire also from the Immortal Love set to frame the card. It was so easy to match up and the whole length of the stamp fitted quite nicely on the size of  card I used.  Some black gems and a little red organza bow finished off the card.
