Acetate Panel

 
This technique is from the most recent issue of TJ. The focal image is a Technique Junkie Stamp. The verse is from Club Scrap. The swirls are a G Studio stamp. Instead of using chalks or pastels to color  the acetate I used glitter which really looks pretty IRL.
These are fun cards to make and are very effective when the card is open and you can see through the acetate.
Give it a try won't you?
Have Fun and Happy crafting!

Emboss Resist Sparkle by Judy Jackson



I have two cards for you this week created with this technique from the current TJ newsletter.  It is such a fun way to use our supplies that we have in our crafting area!  A wonderful way to create a card with such a sparkly and soft technique.  The verse is from Sweet and Sassy Stamps.  I can't remember who makes the humming bird stamp. Sorry!

 This second card is created with stamps from Art Neko.   Those Koi fish are just swimming along!

Have you tried this technique yet?  If not, I hope you will soon!

Have a crafting day!

Layered Paper Pieced wedding card

Hetty here with a wedding card for 
those of you who were or will be married
on March 17.

For this card I used the Layered paper pieced technique
which you can find in the TJ Newsletter from 
Dec 2013/Jan 2014.

The wedding couple is a very old SU! stamp
that i just love using and works very well for
this technique.

Have a creative day!

TOTW Washi Shaker Card

 
How much fun is this? I used Washi tape around the frame as it calls for in the instructions
and also used it for the background of my card. I was dying to use the peacock feathers tape because it is so gorgeous. The stamp is an oldie but a goodie from Impression Obsession. There is a white border around the card that fades into the background of the post so you will have to use your imagination. I keep forgetting this and must try to remember the next time I post. The shakers are gold sequins and are much prettier IRL.
I hope this post finds you all well and being creative. My heart goes out to all of you that are in the colder climates. Boy, you certainly have had to deal with a lot this winter. It is a balmy 80 degrees here in the desert. That could change soon as we had snow last year in March!
 
Give this technique a try. It's a very simple shaker card with really nice results. Don't forget to post your creations to the Yahoo group so we can all be inspired.
 
Keep on stamping and creating. It's good for your soul!
See you back here soon!

Try That Technique - Washi Tape Shaker Card

I created this sweet St. Patrick's Day card for my nephews.  The little shamrocks were created with my Silhouette Cameo. 

The image is colored with copics using the No Line coloring technique.  The image is from Magnolia.


Hope you have a crafty day!

Designer Paper Starburst


Hello there.  Feeling the luck of the Irish these days and couldn't resist making some cards to send to my family.

When I make a card I traditionally try to use a TJ technique and the Designer Paper Starburst cried out for this one.  Rather than using DP I used colourful cardstock to create a rainbow.  The corner is well hidden by the icicle punch I used to make grass.

My cloud dies are from My Favorite Things and my stamp is Leprechaun Luka from La La Land Crafts.

New to Copics I turned to You Tube to help me with my colouring.

Thanks for stopping by.
