Visible Image Cards.

I used 2 Visible Image stencils, and 2 different VI stamp sets to make these cards. The Heart stencil is called Heart Ink and the flower one is called Flower Ink. The two sentiment sets are, Create With Your Soul which I stamped on the flower cad below. The second sentiment set is, Happiness matters. 

 

Both sentiment sets give a really clean, bold image when stamped. I use Versa Fine Clair Nocturne black stamp pad on all my stamps. Both stencils come with the negative and the positive, so you get two stencils in one pack. I wish  had access to VI products here in New Zealand, but I couldn't find anyone who stocks them so ended up ordering them from Visible image in the UK.  I wasn't happy with how the heart cad was going, and had almost decided to flip the card over and start again. However, I didn't and decided too carry on and see  how I felt when the card was finished. I really like the card now it's finished! I wish you could see it in reality, because it is so much prettier, and you get a better view of the subtle shading. There are some water splatters on the heart card, but they don't show up well in this photo. And.... 

I forgot to add them to the flower cad - oops!

There, I've just added them, so if you have good imagination you will be able to see them! I haven't had a lot of experience using stencils, but I did find it lot's of fun, and very absorbing!
