Rolled Backgrounds

Hi friends.  It's Beth Norman here with the Rolled Backgrounds technique from February 2013.  I love how the rolled backgrounds showcases this lovely stamp from Technique Junkies Stamps.

I thought it was time to bring back some long-forgotten techniques which is why I decided to use this technique.  The trick is to have a good tacky glue.

Thank you for stopping by.

Emboss Resist by Judy Jackson

 

About this time every year I am thinking about what flowers I will plant in my flower garden.  Of course it is way to early to even think about planting any flowers, but it makes look forward to spring and flowers even more than I was already. To me the ideal temperature is between 80 and 100 degrees. I love the warmth -- but not the humidity of Florida and other southern states.

 

 

All of the stamps are Technique Junkie stamps.  The background is ##s576 - Fat Smudged Lines. It makes for an interesting background. The butterflies and the verse are found on these web pages - http://www.stampcamp.com/thingswithwings1.html , http://www.stampcamp.com/Butterflies.html ,  and http://www.stampcamp.com/nature2.html. 

 

Is it warm where you are?  Are you crafting somehow today?  I hope so.

Be Kind.....

Happy Thursday Junkies!!  Today, I have a springy card to share with you!  It actually fits the weather we have been having for a change!  It's all fluttery and bright!

I adore this Palettini background image, called Vintage Botanicals Collage!  It's so delicate and frilly!
It was the perfect image to combine with the Stained Resist technique from the Artistic Effects CD.  You can learn more about this CD and all that it contains, HERE .

To finish off my project, I didn't want to cover up any of the technique piece so, I went with a simple sentiment from Technique Junkies and a sheer ribbon.

I hope you are inspired to get a little inky today!
TTFN, Jane

Collaged Circles

Hello dear friends, it's Beth Norman here with Collaged Circles from the Designer Paper Perfection CD.  I stamped out my Technique Junkie Stamp and coloured it to coordinate with my designer paper.

The Designer Paper Perfection CD is fabulous and you should buy it if you haven't done so already.

Have a great day!

Got Wings?

Hello friends, it's Beth Norman here with Gelato Rubs, and it's one of my favourite cards.  The colours are so rich and the black really shows off the colours.

You will find the Gelato Rubs technique on the Artistic Effects CD.

Right now Pat has her Gelatos on sale and boy is there a big selection of colours.  There are a limited quantity so I'd hurry up and buy them while you can.

Now onto the card deets:  I added gold ribbon and added the small bee surrounded in gold, and finally finished off my card by gold embossing Got Wings?

All stamps are Technique Junkies Stamps, including the background, bee and sentiment.

Let's see what you can do with Gelatos.

Dylusions Resist

Dylusions Resist is a technique from the April 2014 Technique Junkie newsletter.  Of course all of the stamps are from the Technique Junkie stamp line.  You can find these stamps  on these web pages:

#S516 Flower Tapestry - http://www.stampcamp.com/bigstamps28.html

#S403 Proverbs - http://www.stampcamp.com/quotationsets2.html.

I love the colors of these Dylusions sprays. Colorful and they just add a beauty and warmth to the finished card.

Have you used these sprays at all? Have you stamped today?

A Little Birthday Wish.......

{Jane Bosi}

Happy Thursday!  Today, I have a fun technique to share with you!  Recently, I pulled out my Artistic Effects CD--what a great one it is!!  The technique I'm show casing today is called Goosed Gelatos.  I LOVE THIS TECHNIQUE!!  Sorry for shouting, but WOW!  what colorful and interesting backgrounds this technique produces!

I own the big 28 colored Mix & Match Gelato gift set.  It looks like this:

I adore it and it gives me soooo many choices!!  For this project, I used Lavendar, Cotton Candy, Bubble Gum, Pistachio and Grape.

After my amazing background dried, I finished it off with some card stock candles and a few fun Technique Junkie Stamps.  You'll find A Little Birthday Wish (#SD398) and Make A Tree Set (#SS014) in the Technique Junkie Stamp store!

Go on now!! Pull out that CD and give it a go!
Don't forget to be awesome!  TTFN, Jane
