Technique of the Week

 
 
 


Hi everyone, Jackie K here with the TOTW which is the Chain Link technique from the current newsletter. I hope you enjoy this card and it encourages you to try this fun, fast, and easy technique. You have seen some other wonderful examples from the other Design Team members and from members of the TJ Yahoo group. So give it a try. Post your results so that we can all be inspired by what you create.
I had to improvise on the punch so as you see anything is possible with a bit of ingenuity. The sentiment is an oldie but a goodie from Club Scrap.
I will be back in a couple of days with the next TOTW which I'm sure you will enjoy!
Keep on creating, it is good for your soul!
 
There is also something different about this card but for now it is a secret....you may find it in a future newsletter.

Chain Link





Hello, Beth Norman, here.  How is your week going so far?  Enjoying the cooler temperatures?  I'm already wearing my winter coat.

To brighten things up for you, I created a Chain Link card using stamps from Mark's Finest Papers.  I love sunflowers, hence the name of my blog Sunflowers and Dragonflies.  My image was coloured with Copic markers.

To create my band that separates the sentiment from the chain link, I used Washi tape.  Gotta love the stuff!

Thank you for taking the time to drop by.

Washi Weave

Hi Technique Junks!

Hetty here, with one of the techniques rom the
Oct/Nov 2013 newsletter. Have you tried them?
Today I need a quick one, for I am just back
from the Club Scrap retreat in Kiberley Wisconsin
(whisch ofcourse was fantastic, meeting friends
and getting so much new inspiration).

I chose the online bonus technique:
Washi Weave.
There are so many diffrent rolls of
washi paper around and a lot of people
are trying to find some fun use
for it. How about using it
for decorating the background paper?
Halloween inspiration with Tim Holtz 
Mini Halloween 3 stamps that I just
bought in the US in my short shopping time
in between workshops.

It was fun to create cards again, but now i have to
go back to do some mor unpacking and gettin
my craft room organized with all
the new goodies!
 
Have a creative day!

Tri Cut Die

 
This technique is from the August/September issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter
All of the stamps are from Stampin Up. The flourish die cut is from Impression Obsession and the large die is from Spellbinders, on of the Grand Caliper  dies. . The card does have a white border which is hard to see with the white b/g.
I hope you like the card and are inspired to try one yourself.
See you soon. Jackie K

Pasted Dylusions vs 3-D Gold by Judy Jackson

Good day from Judy Jackson.  Pasted Dylusions are just fun.  Since there are two techniques in the latest TJ newsletter, I thought it would be fun to make to two cards, using the same stencil, the gold or copper stuff, and see how different the two cards would look.




Stamps for Pasted Dylusions card are Sweet and Sassy Stamps.




Stamps for 3-D Gold are Studio G.

 Have you tried any of these techniques yet?  Do you have a favorite between the two techniques?
