Extraordinary Wildflowers

Hi Junkies!  It's Holly posting today, and I felt like making a landscape type of card.  I started by brushing various colors (greens, yellow, oranges, red, purple) of ink onto some white cardstock with the Ink Blending Brushes.  Then I stamped the Growing Wild stamp with black ink right onto my inky background.  Lastly, I stamped the You Are Extraordinary with the same black ink onto some white cardstock, cut it out, and adhered it to the wildflower scene.  I'm in love with this card as these are the kind I like to make, full of color with silhouettes of nature.  :-)

   

TJ Inkspiration: Feather Cards and Kit

I think it is pretty apparent that I can easily be obsessed with craft tools and toys when I start to play with them. Actually, I don't think I would be stretching anyone's imagination to say that I am not unusual in the crafting world in that respect! This week I became obsessed with this fun Layered Feather 4-piece stencil from A Colorful Life Designs: Layered Feather Stencil I played with it so much, and was so inspired by it, that I created Card Kits for you using the stencil so I could share my obsession. Each of the kits includes everything you need (except black ink) to create 10 gorgeous cards, including 3 inks, One Shimmering Bliss Spray, the stencil, a stamp set, a blending brush, and all the paper needed for the cards. And... since I know that once you see all the cards, you will want all the color combinations, I added ink and spray-only packages to the kit area so that you can grab any other favorites you want without having to buy the kit a second time. And...did I mention the discount? The kits are priced at 20% off normal retail price! Beauty AND a Bargain! And...I created a video for the cards so that you can follow along to see how the cards are made. Before I get to the video, here are the cards from the kits: Feather Card Kit 1 Feather Card Kit 2 Feather Card Kit 3 Feather Card Kit 4 Here is the video showing how the cards were made: Feather Card Kit from Technique Junkies Here are the kit breakdowns: Feather Kit 1 Feather Kit 2 Feather Kit 3 Feather Kit 4 I hope you have as much fun with these as I did!

I hope you are a little inkspired by today's issue. See you next week!   Sincerely,   Pat Huntoon Technique Junkies LLC

Life is Short

Hello friends! 

Let me show you a fun card I made using stamps from the May Release!

Mask image and stamp Brick Wall background in light color ink.

Blend blue ink on bottom part.

Stamp Life is Short sentiment in dark brown ink.

For the foil background, adhere a piece of Teal Foil to a toner paper piece, insert to a laminator and die-cut to desire size, here I want it about 1/4" bigger on each side behind my stamped piece.

Little Black Cat

Happy Wednesday!

I think any animal goes with everything so this new stamp is my kind of stamp. 

I created the background by adding some light blue ink on a light blue card and then added some glitter, I stamped A Little Black Cat in black ink and then cut it out and added it onto the card.

Being a Family

Hello folks! This is such a wonderful stamp, and I'm sure you have seen a lot of beautiful cards from the Design Team.  For my card, I turned to Pinterest to look at colour combinations and I thought this one was an interesting one.  I hope you like.

I gold embossed the sentiment on the peacock colour and heat embossed on the rustic orange colour.

Hello There!

Happy Monday! 

I have a card to quick share today using Fab Phrases (set of 10).

I made the background by swiping 3 different colored ink pads directly onto the card to make an interesting pattern. I stamped the Hello in black ink. 

Hope you enjoyed my project!

Hangin' With My Gnomes Card

Hello peeps!  Lynda Joy here, with a card using a stamp from the TJ May release.  You can find all the May release stamps HERE.  Use my discount code, TJ10Lynda, for 10% off your entire purchase at Technique Junkies.

Hangin' With My Gnomies SD1015
Gingham S416

I inked the Gingham with antique linen distress ink, and stamped it onto a light gray scrap, then cut it with a tag die.  I added it to a gray A2 card front with foam tape.

I stamped and black embossed the Hangin' With My Gnomies image, and used my Arteza real brush markers to watercolor the gnomes.  I used foam daubers with distress ink to add color to the verse part.  I added these to my tag.  I added some fibers from my stash to coordinate with the colors in my images.

That's that!  Easy-peasy.  

I hope you have had a chance to check out the new May

stamps.  Did you get to play along with the WWDB challenge?  It was fun, and four lucky winners received a $50 gift certificate to the Technique Junkies store.

Watch for future challenges coming soon!  

Thanks for stopping by.  

Blessings,
