Day 11 of the Technique Junkies 30 Days of Christmas


Welcome to Techniques Junkies 30 days of Christmas.  Today is day 11.  

Lynda Joy here with a fun card using an adorable stamp set from the November release.
Let's Chill Set of 7


I used the stamp set Let's Chill Set of 7 to create my winter scene with the adorable penguins.


I stamped the images onto bristol card stock, and colored them with real brush markers.  I fussy-cut the penguins, and added them to a background I had created.   I sponged a blue sky onto a white A2 card, then die cut some glitter card stock 'snow piles,' and added them to the card front.

I attached the penguins, and added some die cut snowflakes, and the 'Winter is warmer together' verse.  Some white acrylic paint spots for snowflakes finish the front.

Inside:  I stamped the 'Let's Chill' verse, added it to a scrap piece of pp, and attached it to the inside.  I added one of the fussy cut penguins.


Easy and fun card!

Day 8 of the Technique Junkies 30 Days of Christmas



Today is Day 8 of the Technique Junkies 30 Days of Christmas and today I have a Colorful Chris-Moose for you. This sweet stamp from the #MittenStateStamps line for Technique Junkies is a fun and cheerful way to celebrate Christmas.

I colored my moose with Copic Markers, using the same technique to make the lights in his antlers glow as I used in the Holiday Lights tutorial a few weeks ago.  Doesn't he just make you smile?
I hope you are enjoying the 30 days of Christmas -- remember that all stamps in the Christmas Category of Technique Junkies are 20% off through November 22. Get your favorites today!

Day 7 of the Technique Junkies 30 Days of Christmas


Here we are on day 7 of the 30 Days of Christmas! Today I am sharing a shaker card. Shaker cards are so fun. I used two stamp sets in creating this card: Christmas Ornaments Trio and Victorian Greetings. Here is the card:



This type of card is not as difficult to create as you might think. Here is how it came together.

  1.  Start with a black A2 card base and some black cardstock.
  2.  Cut 4 frames using metal dies and glue all four layers together.
  3.  Cut 1 more frame and the acetate. Stamp image on the acetate an emboss with silver embossing powder. Color the frame with Nuvo Glitter Markers. I used Urban Graphite. Attach the frame to the acetate.
  4.  Attach the 4 layered frame piece to the card base. Be sure it is secured well so nothing will leak out. 
  5.  Add your shaker items to the "well" created by the stacked frames.
  6.  Attach the frame and acetate to the top of the stacked frames, again ensuring they are securely attached to prevent leakage.
  7.  Stamp and emboss the sentiment on the card base.
  8.  Add silver dots with the silver Nuvo Glitter Marker from the Midnight Shadows set.
  9.  I wasn't happy with how the ornament kind of disappeared after I assembled the card, so I stamped and embossed it on silver paper using red embossing powder, cut out just the ornament, and attached it over the embossed acetate. Much better! The ornament now shows up and I really liked the touch of red.
This card was so easy peasy! I love shaker cards!

Both sets of stamps used include multiple stamps. Here is a glimpse of each set:

Christmas Ornaments, Set of 9

Day 6 of the Technique Junkies 30 Days of Christmas



Hello, Kia here with you for Day 6 of the Technique Junkies 30 Days of Christmas.

I used the delightful Feliz Naughty Dog set for my card today, along with a sentiment from the Victorian Christmas sentiment set and a Christmas Stencil.

My background is done using distress oxide inks and water, blending the colours together slightly. Once dry I stencilled over the piece with Picked Raspberry and Ranger Pigment ink in Glacier White.

I attached my panel to a navy card base and added several die cut snowflakes to the bottom with the dog sitting above, and stamped my sentiment on white cardstock using purple ink attaching it in the snow area.

I then added a few drops of Nuvo Glitter Drops.- in the silver to finish.

I hope you have enjoyed this card today and thank you for visiting.
