Tomorrow we will be releasing 3 new clear photopolymer stamp sets here on the blog and today the DT and I are showing samples of goodies made with the new Folk Art Medallion set.
Here are the DT ladies, don't forget to pin your faves as you go past - today's Pin keyword should be #wmsfolkmedallion, copy and paste it from here to save you typing, lol! I'm just a teensy bit concerned that the keywords function on Pinterest is not working for me in the way it should beat the moment - I'm having awful bother gathering the pins that folks have made, but I'm hoping the good folks at Pinterest will be able to fix it in time for tomorrow, when I will pull out all the winners! Anyhow, onwards...
I am in love with this set. I know, I'm not supposed to gush about things I made, but I very, very much like this folk art feel.
I have so much to show you about this set, but I am beginning with these two very simple cards. I love to stamp, I love to make pattern and this set is designed to allow me to do lots of that. So many colour combinations are possible for the medallion owing to the fact that the roundel has spaces in it to allow you to stamp the flowers individually, in whatever colour you like.
This morning I have two cards for you, both nearly identical except for colour.This card below has been created by stamping the medallion image and the little accompanying flowers into the roundel - and white embossing all of them. Then, I used copic markers in various bright shades to pick out the elements, pure folk I thought! loved this....
but this one..... I love more! I'm very partial to that font also, I think it has a great folksy feel to it!
Every metallic embossing powder I have was put to use on this one. The roundel was stamped first in Versamark and then embossed in Verdigris embossing powder. Then I added all the flowers in batches and embossed them in copper, gold and silver...half of you might be horrified, I've probably broken some rule or other about using so many metallics, but I absolutely adored this! lol.
Ok, I'm off doing all the last moment prep for the release, I may or may not be back with you today, but just fyi - our release goes live here on the blog tomorrow at 7:00pm - I will post a schedule in the morning, and if I am not chatting to you before then, have a lovely day!

Wow!!!! When I first saw the thumbnail for this post, I thought that it was a bit of fabric for an inspiration pic - utterly stunning, love the folk art - fabulous set and fabulous card, Claire!
I don't think there is a such a thing as too much metallic! (Metallics are way on trend at the mo too)
Loving this one - is it tomorrow yet?????
Claire, this set is amazing!! It is already my favorite, and I'll be using it over and over and over again!! It is totally over the moon brilliant, the Mount Everest of your stamps!!

Claire! Oh my goodness! These are absolutely stunning. I love the wonderfully colored medallion, but I cannot say how amazing the one is in the different metallics! It is the most gorgeous rich verdigris - just delicious. This set has skyrocketed to the top of my favorites list!

I love both your cards, but the metallic one is off the charts! You know, don't you, there are no rules we can break when we're bing creative.
I think you may have saved the best to last! I think this medallion set is wonderful. Both your cards are just stunning - I think the metallics is my favourite. Can't wait until tomorrow!
Thanks again to the team for the most super cards!
These cards and stamps are amazing! Love the vibrant colors. Must be just me , but are we to pin our favorites to are own board or a WMS board? I only do the very basics with pin.

These creations are AMAZING Claire, wow! Stunning work~
These are both wonderful, but I think I love the metallics the best (shhh! don't tell the first card!) I just think it gives such a feel of a metal art piece of some kind...especially with the black background. Thanks so much for sharing!
Both are absolutely stunning!! Love the rich colors against the black. And the metallics....be still my heart!! LOVE this set!
Eeeks....am loving this set (well all of them actually!) both of these cards are gorgeous...love all the bright colors in the first and the metallic EP in the second is stunning!!
These are gorgeous, but I have been told that using Copics in this way will plug the tips of them?
Wow your cards are delightful! So colorful and dramatic on the black with the embossing! Great job on this release I cannot wait for the full reveal!
WOW!! These are both stunning, but I especially love the metallic version - just gorgeous!!

Wow! This set is gorgeous! I love how the colors pop off of your black background.
Stunning cards! I love big images - each day's post has made me dying for the release.
Well I stared at your first photo for ages, trying to work out how you'd got all those vivd colours on one stamped image, before I read that you had embossed in white and then coloured with Copics! I am definitely going to have to try that as it looks so effective! I can't wait for the new release now!
Love the folk art medallion. LOVE the needle felt chick from your previous post. I discovered felting just this past Christmas and confess to have kept more than I gave away. Thanks for the inspiration.
love the folk medallion and the different embossing powders you used. Thanks for the inspiration.
The colours are glorious and the stamp is so pretty.
I did pin your card. It is absolutely beautiful. Now I can look at it all the time.
Loving the Folk Art sets! Beautiful!
This medallion is amazing! I just love it done on the black background with bright colors. Beautiful!
Wow! Wasn't too sure about this set, but I love what the DT did with it and your bright card is fabulous! I've got to try that technique with my copics. A must have set now, oh my poor wallet....
What an incredible design! And your samples are just gorgeous!
Possible the most beautiful stampset ever! I love what you did with it, and I can't wait to try it out!
Wow Claire, these cards are absolutely stunning, I love the techniques and colours you have used. What a fantastic stamp!!
I live in Belfast and was wondering, as you are in NI, do you have a store I can go visit? I love craft shops and am always looking for new ones to visit where I can get my crafting supplies.

Lovely work of art!!! Thanks too for changing up the chance to win.
I just love the Medallion! So many ways to embellish it and it looks different each time with the various embossings and colors! I did pin my favorites under "Pammlla" on Pinterest. Leaving my comment here after reading about the change of the pinterest entry on the blog.
lovely jewel tone colors to showcase the stamp

Beautiful. So much colour.
I am new to your products and website (found my way here from Becca's blog) but I am so impressed and will be shopping from your fabulous products. I never thought I needed Spellbinders Labels 25 as I already have many of their dies but your stamps have made me rethink that. I am also loving stamps from past releases for usecwith my current dies.
Happy to have found my way to all your fabulous collections!
