Visible Image - Vibrant Colours


Hello!  My brief at Visible Image today is Vibrant Colours!  Well, a Tequila Sunrise is pretty vibrant, and I decided to give it a splash in keeping with the vibrant theme.

I've used Happy Hour and Fluid stamp sets, and Frosty stencil for the background.  I started off with the Fluid stamp, and inked it up with Distress Inks a couple of times.


Then I stamped the glass, orange slice and cherry with Versafine Onyx Black, then flooded them with colour using Distress Re-inkers.  The re-inkers give a much richer colour than you can achieve with the ink pads.


There is a die set to accompany these stamps, but I didn't want the white outline today, so I fussy cut the stamped images.  You can see a little smudge line at the top of the drink, which was totally accidental, but worked out perfectly for the design. 


I sponged some Salty Ocean around the top edges of the panel, and Tea Dye around the lower edges to indicate sky and sand.


Moving on to the base card, I slipped a sheet of copy paper between the folds of the card then sponged around the top third with orange and yellow distress inks.


Then I stencilled over with Salty Ocean Distress Oxide, and added a touch of Stickles in the unstencilled areas.


Here's a close-up of the cocktail - cheers!  That little smudge lines up perfectly with the Fluid image.


And here's a look at the finished card with the Visible Image products used.
