Hello, Beth Norman here with Top Latch and Bandana techniques. First, I created my bandana background by using butterflies from My Favorite Things stamps, and flourish from Autumn Leaves. Both are some of my favourite techniques.

Thank you for stopping by.

Guitar~Wisped Frames






Hello Technique Junkies Friends! Kathie McGuire here on another one of your stamping Saturdays to share a card I made recently.

I used the Wisped Frames technique from the Feb/March 2010 newsletter on my main image. The guitar image is unknown, as it's an unmounted image from a stamp show purchase long ago and I didn't mark the rubber. I stamped it with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it with PSX Gold embossing powder. I cut the image with a Spellbinders die, then used the Wisped Frame technique to make it a little more interesting.

The gold paper was Cuttlebug'd; image on the inside is Stampin'Up!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a chance this weekend to try a new Technique Junkies technique.

Thursday? Already? Try That Technique

{Jane Bosi} Well, as it sometimes happens, Thursday has caught me completely off guard! I AM bringing you this week's Try That Technique Challenge! This week, our technique is: Acetate and Pearl Ex from the October 2004 edition. As the mother of five wee ones, I tend to shy away from any kind of technique that results in a mess---I already have enough of those on my hands! I wouldn't exactly say this is messy.......but, it could be! The results, however, are well worth some stray Pearl Ex on the table! My main image is from I Brake For Stamps. The sentiment, from Rouge Redhead Designs. C'mon! Give it a whirl! TTFN, Jane

Apple Time

Hello Stampers,
Hetty here with some apples.
This time of the year is apple time and I have this cute digital stamp
from Create with TLC and
used it for some caramel apple cards
and for the Jewish New Year (which - by the way is
tomorrow). You find the card and the template for these
cards on my own blog: Craftchaos.

For this card I used some kraft colored cardstock, red paper, buttons
and my swirl embossingfolder.
I cut the card according the template (see HERE) and used the
cuttlebug highlight technique - Oct/Nov 2008 - with some wild honey distress ink.
To give it that creamy caramel look, I embossed it all with
honey pearl embossing powder,
Here a close up of the digital image, that is colored
with copic markers. In the heart of the clock
I added some metal findings of the Tim Holtz collection.

To all my Jewish stamping friends: "Shanah Tovah"
Have a sweet and creative New Year!

Have a creative day!

Circles by Ann

Hey, bloggers....Ann Clack here.  I've wanted to try the embellished circles technique for a long time but had no stamps that were suitable.  Finally got some and was able to play.  I didn't embellish them very much though!  I've loved the simple look of this technique and hope you do too!

Come on ladies - try it! You will love this technique and all the techniques on the Stampbooking CD. This technique is listed under Borders! Please post your creations to the message board with 'Try that Technique' in the subject line!
