Visible Image October stamp release

 Hi it's Jane here and I am delighted to be able to share some samples made with the awesome brand new October Visible Image stamp release which is for sale now on the Country View Crafts website. I have added links within this post.  There are 6 new sets; 3 drinks based, a vintage car, a motorbike and a brilliant cake. 

As I am also on the design team for Visible Image I am able to share some of the samples I made as well as a few extras which I have made for Dotty's Teahouse in Carshalton, Surrey where I sell my cards.

 Susan has all 6 sets , as well as lots of others from the catalogue, in stock on the CVC website and I have added a live link to each set. If anything is out of stock just fill in the email request and Susan will contact you when they are back in stock.

I love every set but I just had to start with this one as I am a real gin lover and this set is perfect. 

Keep your gin up

I made alcohol ink backgrounds (what else could they be!) for my first 2 samples.


Next up is the brilliant wine set


 which has some hilarious sentiment stamps too. I made 2 tags to also showcase the 2 clever wine splash stamps.
the last drinks based set is called
It has 3 different size beer bottles with a fab glass which is so realistic when stamped, the shading is brilliant. 

I made this card for Dotty's teahouse in Carshalton where I sell my cards. I added glossy accents to the glass and it really looks like cold beer. 

Next is 
A super set for those hard to make male cards and projects. 
I made a birthday tag with this set and decoupaged the car so that it has extra dimension. 


Then the lovely motorbike set with some fab "action" stamps and 2 awesome sentiments. This set is perfect for bikers.
I made motocross/dirt biking card with this one on a brushos background. 
and finally the brilliant cake set
This last card I also made for my shelves in Dotty's Teahouse. The candles in this set are so unique and there is also a little "glow" stamp which is used behind the flames as I have shown in gold ink.  This is earl grey and raspberry flavour cake I baked  made!  I have lots of flavours planned with this set including lemon and chocolate.
Before I leave I will share a little sneak peek of my make for our next challenge here at Country View where I used the gin set ...as well as a couple of other VI sets. 
Any guesses what our theme is? 

Could it be that Father Christmas has been on the gin?? You will need to check the challenge out on Monday 1st November when it goes live.

Thanks for stopping by and do check out this amazing new release. There really is something for everyone and every set has that very unique Visible Image twist. 

I hope I may have given you a few ideas of how this gorgeous new release can be put to use with your own projects. These stamps are brilliant for cards, tags, journaling , scrapbooking, you name it they work. They are also the best quality clear stamps you can buy. They are deeply etched photopolymer and stamp perfectly every single time. 

Remember that UK postage is also FREE when you spend over £7.50 so you can save yourself some money to spend on extra crafting goodies! Susan also has lots of other Visible Image stamps and stencils for sale and you can see them all here.

If you follow my my Instagram account which is @jane.tyrrell I will be sharing lots more samples over the coming days and weeks. 

Also if you would like to see how my makes were put together you can see step by steps for many of them over on my blog here.

Happy stamping,

Bye for now,

New Visible Image autumn stamp release

Hi everyone it's Jane from Jane's Journal here and I am delighted to share some of my samples made for the awesome new autumn Visible Image release. I on their DT as well as Country View Challenges, so I am able to share my makes here too.  Susan also has lots of their current range on the Country View Crafts website so do check them all out. I will add live links in this post so just click on any you would like to purchase. If any are out of stock just click on the "notify me" and Susan will email you when they come back in. 

There are 9 new sets in this release, 6 X A6 size and 3 X A7 sets. I have been asked so many times which is my favourite but I honestly love every single one.

There are 3 X A6 size nature sets and first up is 

Totally toadstools 

This is an amazing set and is in my Top 3..lol that is as far as you will pin me down!
There are so many ways you can colour the toadstools and create some awesome scenes. I made this sample with an alcohol ink background on Yupo.
Here is a close up, the sentiment is perfect.

Next up is a pair of tags I made with Nuts about squirrels which also has some hilarious sentiments.



The third nature set is such a cutie called Hedgehog hugs
This is another alcohol ink background but on glossy card.

Who doesn't love a hedgehog! 

The sample below also has a leaf from the Erika's Maple set. The new sets work so well with all the existing ones too.
There are 3 more fab A6 sets. First up is a sentiment set;  affirmations which is so versatile on cards, tags in journals etc and parts can even be cut up and used together. 
Then there are the VI minis #1 Artist trading card (ATC) sizes of some of their most iconic stamps.

and one set which I may have had just a little bit of influence in bringing to the range 😇. You may not  know but I really love making and swapping ATCs. I really needed a  good "backing info stamp" to put on the back of my swaps and some "mail art stamps" to decorate the envelope.  Mark Alexander designed this fab set which is a must have if you make ATCs.

I used all 3 of the above sets to make these 3 ATCs, and decorate the envelope;





and last but not least there are 3 A7 sets, which are very reasonable priced.
In both these sets there are 3 separate stamps, it is not one large single stamp, so you can stamp parts or the whole sentiment eg just the "believe with your mind" part.
The final stamp is the
Grunge flourish which can be used for edges, background stamping and so much more. A really great grungy addition to the range. 

I can't show any of my samples with the last 3 sets as they have not been shared yet on my own blog or Instagram account. But if you keep an eye on my Instagram account which is @jane.tyrrell you will see them shared over the coming days and weeks. 
Also if you would like to see how my makes were put together you can see step by steps for many of them over on my blog here.

I hope I may have given you a few ideas of how this gorgeous new release can be put to use with your own projects. These stamps are brilliant for cards, tags, journaling , scrapbooking, you name it they work. They are also the best quality clear stamps you can buy. They are deeply etched photopolymer and stamp perfectly every single time. 

Remember that postage is FREE in the UK on the CVC website if you spend over £7.50 too, a real win win in my books.
This is the link to all the Visible Image stamps and stencils....do check them out as Susan had a recent restock.

Happy stamping,
