Movies and Glitter Markers

 



Movies and glitter markers - life doesn't get better. The Technique Junkies Cinema Pattern Stamp was colored with Nuvo Glitter Markers - they are so shimmery! The sentiment is from the Go to the Movies set. Stamps from Technique Junkies.

Tamashii In My Prayers


Hello friends.  Lynda Joy here, with another card for the February release celebration.  

For my card today, I used:
and
 
How I made it:
  • On a white matte coated card stock, I used an acrylic to roll on inks.  I love the way the acrylic brayers applies the inks in a sort of moddled look.  I used distress inks in various colors, blending them together with the brayer.
  • I stamped the Tamashii Modern Frame image with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink in my Misti.
  • I stamped and black embossed the In My Prayers verse.
  • I outlined the panel with a black marker, then layered it onto a lavender panel, then onto a black A2 card front.
  • INSIDE:  I lined the inside with a lavender panel.
I hope you like my easy card.  It could very well have been a one layer card, but I usually like a layer between the panel and the card front.

TJ Inkspirations: Shadow Stencil Ink Blending

 

A Colorful Life Designs Stencils recently came out with fun shadow stencils and we are now carrying them in the Technique Junkies store. Today's tutorial shows you one way to use these stencils with stamps and ink blending.

The vide shows you how to use two stencils with the same technique, and there is a kit for each of the stencils. The kits save you a nice bit of money off the regular price, so if you like the cards, it is a way to save!

Before we get to the video, here is the artwork and the kits that coordinate with them.

Here is the first card, using the 6-Square Shadow Stencil:

Wine a Little

  Hi there! 

It's my day to post on the Technique Junkies Design blog, and I'd like to share two fun cards that I created, with some new release products!  

Both cards today use 'SD1057 Wine a Little'. What fun is this?  I'm sure we all know someone we could send one of these to! 

This first card has 'SD1007 Artistic Swipe' in the background. I LOVE this stamp, and will be using it often!  I used my Ink Blending Brushes and A Colorful Life 'Faded Petals' stencil, and voila! Very quick, fun card for someone special!




And here is the second card. I used another new release 'S896 Poppy Arrangement' to 'frame' the sentiment. Isn't it pretty?  Coloring was done with Copic Markers, and a bit of white gel pen. Used some glossy accents on the wine glass and flowers to add some shine. I used Ink Blending Brushes to fill in the white space, and love the way it turned out!



We have TWO February 'Gotta Have it All' Bundles!  The first bundle is shown below. Here's what you'll get:


And here is the 'Gotta Have it All' Bundle Two:

This Croquet Alice card uses the Alice in Wonderland stamp, and is layered over a Shimmering Bliss Background (Mindaro and Vivid Volt) stamped with the Grungy Floral Dot background.

TJ Inkspirations: Poppy Color Sandwich

 

Today I have a technique that was based on an technique I had published in the Technique Junkie Newsletter years ago, called Color Sandwich. One of the things I love about resurrecting older techniques is that it reminds us that great ideas never go out of style!

Along with our technique video today I have a kit for you in case you would like to make the card yourself. Here is the card:
