Try that Technique and 2007 on sale!

As Beth announced today, the Try that Technique challenge for this week is the Cling and Scrunch Technique from the June 2007 issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter. This is such as easy technique and it makes some of the most sensational backgrounds...and there are so many variations you can try with different mediums.

My card uses two colors of color wash spray to achieve my blue "water" background. This piece is SO pretty in person -- I did it on a sheet of iridescent white from the Paper Temptress and it is just stunning in person, with its subtle shimmer. The boat image is from I Brake for stamps, and the verse is from Impression Obsession. I colored the boat with Copics Markers.

Now it is your turn to Try that Technique!

Don't have this issue? No problem! You may purchase the six 2007 issues for HALF-PRICE. From now through Wednesday, April 19th, the 2007 issues are $9.00 plus postage. Email me for an invoice TODAY -- you do NOT need to be a current TJ subscriber to order these!

Can't wait to see your art!

 

Sweet Easter Bunnies

When I saw these bunnies from Twisted Papers I knew that I wouldn't be able to resist them. I immediately saw those cute fluffy tails and knew I had to use the Out of the Box Technique (October 2004 Technique Junkie Newsletter) for them!  I found this pretty designer paper in my stash, use the Glassy Embossing Technique (February 2010 issue of TJN) on it, and added the saying, ribbon and flower.This is all matted on Paper Temptress's exquisite Gold Metallic Glossy and Brown Bag cardstock. I love how it looks in person!

I noticed that there are new Alice in Wonderland FREE downloads on the Twisted Papers site -- AND there are 210 new Easter download-able images, too. I am having so much fun with these! I hope you do too!

Thanks for stopping by today!
