Technique Junkies Junk Journal Flip Through Video and an Announcement

 

 

This junk journal was so fun to do.  It was my first one, so I decided to make a journal using Technique Junkies coffee-related stamps.  Looking over my list, I see that Pat is a big coffee lover like me.  There are a lot of coffee stamps.  I have included the links for you below.  An announcement has been made in the next paragraph.

Links to Stamps I used for my journal entitled "For the Love of Coffee."

Coffee, Sarcasm & Lipstick

Blooming Heart

Love, Laughter and Coffee

First Coffee

Perk up Soon

Cups 'n Mugs

Love you a Latte

Kittie Love

Whimsical Coffee Background

Bunch of Beans

Better with Coffee

It's with heavy heart that I have decided to retire from Technique Junkies.  I've had a blast over the last 14 years.  Technique Junkies has a close-knit Design Team and I've grown many friendships over time.   I'll still be around dabbling in this and that--Gelliplate, Junk and Art Journals, Card-Making, etc. 

Thank you Pat for  everything.

 

Sepia Lavender Frame

Good morning!  Today, I'm sharing this sepia-toned lavender frame card with stamps from Technique Junkies.  I stamped the gorgeous new Lavender Frame with a dark brown ink (Pinecone Versafine Clair) onto some white cardstock.  Then I stamped the sentiment from the Lavender Friendship Sentiments set with the same brown ink inside the frame.

To get that sepia-toned shading around the frame, I masked off the center of the frame first.  Then I used a blending brush and some brown dye ink and very lightly brushed the ink around the outside of the frame.  I carefully peeled off the mask to reveal the bright white sentiment area and then adhered this stamped panel to a dark brown mat and a white card base.

You can save some money when you shop at Technique Junkies by using this code, TJ10Holly, when you check out.  Stock up on these stamps and the blending brushes along with some Shimmering Bliss sprays and stencils.  Happy shopping!

  

Happy Birthday to my Beautiful Friend

 Hi there!

I'm up today on the Technique Junkies blog, and am sharing a pretty card using some stamps from the January release.

Pat came out with two coordinating items this month, and I think I will be using them a lot! 'Lavender Frame' and 'Lavender Friendship Sentiments, set of 4' are beautiful to work with. The sentiments are lovely when used as stand-alone stamps on a pretty background, or when used with the 'Lavender Frame'.

This is the 4th card that I've made with these beautiful stamps. I simply stamped the frame and sentiment in brown ink on 'alcohol ink' patterned paper, and adhered to a light green card base.

Card 2

Card 3

Isn't it fun to see how many possibilities there are???

Dotted Hearts - Trio of Cards - Technique Junkies

 Hello!  Today's cards are from The Hopeful Crafter, Tracy Shultz. I created a trio of cards that feature the new Technique Junkies Dotted Hearts background stamp. This stamp is part of  the January 2022 New Release stamps: https://techniquejunkies.com/january-2022-new-stamp-release/   All of the new stamps are still available at the link above. Save 10% off non-sale items with my code: TJ10Tracy

My first card (above) was created by first ink blended on Hammermill Color Cover Copy Paper using Catherine Pooler inks (DoSiDo and Rouge).  These inks are amazing and they are available at the Technique Junkies shop! These inks are water reactive, so I spritzed some water on the panel and it created white spots on the red ink blended panel. I dried the ink blended panel with my heat tool, then stamped the Dotted Heart stamp using Versamark Watermark Ink. I then heat embossed with gold embossing powder. I cut the word "Love" in gold foil cardstock using a sentiment from my stash. I used a black A2 card base.

My second card has most of the same elements as the first, but I used white embossing powder and the inks I used to blend with were Pucker Up and DoSiDo Catherine Pooler Ink. 

My third card features silver embossing powder and I ink blended the background with Pucker Up Catherine Pooler Ink.  

 This release is so much fun. If you're like me and you have to have all the stamps in this collection, there is a "Gotta Have It All" bundle: https://techniquejunkies.com/january-2022-gotta-have-it-all-bundle/
