One of the new dies this year that I have observed -- and confess that I have bought -- are piercing dies. We don't have to use a needle tool and heavy plastic to pierce our paper, we can run the card stock through our machines and with one swipe we have pierce the card stock in an all over pattern. I was able to achieve the green highlights in the pierced holes by painting a thin coat of green Shimmering Bliss spray all over the back. The green spray soaked into the pierced holes and highlighted the holes! It really didn't take very much of the spray to create this great look.
The focal image is Sister Birthday! I stamped it in black Versafine ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I used dye based markers to color in the image.
And did you know Technique Junkies has a sizable collection of Birthday Stamps? Use my special code to get 10% of those (unless they are from the February release) -- TJ10Judy. This is a good month to gain several birthday stamps for your collection!
And if you have decided you cannot bear without owning them all this month, here is the Gotta Have It All link!! What a tremendous savings.
You can save 10% off anything else that is not currently on sale. Great deal for you!
Have a wonderful day and get inky!!
