Dear Santa

 Hello Friends!


I'm up on the Technique Junkies blog to share a fun card, using some great stamps from Technique Junkies.



The stamping was done, and the image was colored with Copic markers. A bit of Glossy Accents was used on nose, toes, and eyes.  The Shining Star stencil was then used to accent the background. I used another stamp from the sentiment set listed above to give the envelope a bit of 'happy'!

So glad you stopped by today!

Don't forget!!! You can always save 10% on your orders by entering TJ10Patti at checkout.


Be sure to head over to the Technique Junkies store and do a little crafty shopping!

Hugs and smiles,
Patti J.

Technique Junkies Inventory Reduction Sale

 


Happy Wednesday! Pam here and I took a break from Christmas and decided to create with one of the stamps in our inventory reduction sale. This stamp is called Key Script and it is perfect for the collage person! I used the color challenge from splitcoaststampers.com CC873 from Tuesday which was mint macaron, blushing bride and crumb cake. I stamped it on watercolor paper using my Misti. Next, I used my markers in these colors for the mint and blushing bride and then swiped the crumb cake pad around the edges and then spritzed water on entire paper and dried with heat tool. My sentiment is from Lighthouse Sentiments (not in sale). To finish it off I added some burlap and a gold dragonfly. Check out the inventory reduction sale here for a total of 45% off when you use my code TJ10Pam. A 10% discount will be applied to items not in the sale.

Here Comes Santa Claus!!

 



 

There are no new Technique Junkies for December, but look for new stamps on January 1, 2022.   However, I will be posting at least twice a week in December.   And if I have used Technique Junkies stamps or items, I will let you know.  

😀And this is a spectacular announcement from Technique Junkies.  There is an ANNUAL INVENTORY REDUCTION SALE -- beginning TODAY!  Look here for all the details and which stamps are on sale.  Perhaps some of your favorites will be among the stamps and other items on sale.   ðŸ˜ƒ

I used several Technique Junkies stamps and stencils to create this card.  The stamps are Santa in Moonlight and Merry Christmas to all.   I used the lovely Skyline Edger stencil at the bottom. You can see how Pat Huntoon used these stencils here. It is a video tutorial.  I used a stencil on the moon to give it some shadows. I used ink blending brushes to apply ink to the background.    I spritzed the sky with Dazzle Shimmering Bliss Topper.  

Any Technique Junkies purchase, not already on sale, will be able to have 10% off when you use TJ10Judy in the coupon box when you check out!   However, you CAN use TJ10Judy to get a 10% reduction even on the Inventory Reduction items on sale!!




Have a wonderful day preparing  for the Christmas season!  Be sure to get inky during this season!

Bright Snowflakes Background and Mega Sale at Technique Junkies

Hello! Today we have two cards featuring the Snowflakes Set of 9 stamps. But, before I share with you how I created these cards, I want to remind you that it is that time of year again! It is the December Inventory Reduction Sale at Technique Junkies! Don't miss out on this opportunity to save 35% on a wide  selection of stamps. The sale ends on December 14, 2021: 
For additional savings of 10% (yes...that is 45% off the Inventory Reduction Sale Stamps), you can use my Coupon Code TJ10Tracy: 
Now, here are my cards. I used the Snow Flakes Set of Nine stamp set (#SS098): 
I created a video on my YouTube Channel that demonstrates how I created these cards: 
My card panels were created using the embossed resist technique. I ink blended my panels using three different colors of Catherine Pooler Inks: Cummerbund, Serenade and Cove Blue. I then stamped the snowflakes (free hand) using Versamark Ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I then used domed foam blending tools to ink blend the backgrounds using the three Catherine Pooler inks I mentioned above.  Just as there are no two snowflakes that are exactly the same, there are no two ink blended backgrounds that are exactly the same. I finished the cards using a stitched rectangle die, foam dimensional and gems.  I hope you enjoyed the cards that I made. Thank you for visiting.
