Therapist

 Hello Junkies!

I know there wasn't a new release yesterday, so I thought I'd revisit some of my favorites.   

I'm a dog person through and through.   I love my four-legged therapist.   There is nothing better when you are feeling out of sorts of sitting down and cuddling with a warm ball of fur.

Family Love

Hello. Jeanette here. I hope you had a wonderful Easter. For many, that means time spent with family so it seems appropriate that I have a family-themed set of cards to share with you today.

I used the same Technique Junkies stamp for all three cards - Being a Family. Truthfully, all three cards are mostly the same. The same design. The same embellishments. The big difference is the way I colored the greenery in each of the cards.

On this first card, I used my "normal" method. I stamped on white cardstock and colored with Copic markers.

Then I decided to use some Crumb Cake (Kraft-colored) cardtock and color with colored pencils. 

I colored the image with a white colored pencil, which resulted in a soft/subtle look.

I wanted to try one more look. 

This time I again stamped the image on white cardstock, but instead of coloring it with a white colored pencil, I used two green colored pencils.

So, I'm curious. Which of the three looks do you like best? Are there other combinations of paper/color you would try?

I hope you've enjoyed seeing these three variations.

Gone Fishing | Jumping Fish Father's Day Card

 

Hello everyone and welcome to the last Saturday in March.  This year is just flying by.  Well, tomorrow is Easter and before you know it, it's going to be Father's Day.  Do you have a dad who loves to fish?  This card might be perfect for him.  

• I started with a top-folding A2 card base using a navy bluish cardstock.  
• I die-cut a piece of scrapbook paper with a light wave design on it using a 4" x 5.25" stitched rectangle die.
• Then I embossed it using the Waves 3D Embossing Folder from Memory Box and adhered it to the card front.
• I stamped Jumping Fish Linograph on a piece of white cardstock and then used a cloud stencil and blue ink to make the sky behind the fish.
• I adhered this to a piece of the same blue cardstock and then to the card front. 
• Lastly, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock with the same 4" x 5.25" stitched rectangle die, stamped Happy Father's Day, and adhered this to the inside of the card. 

All you need to do is write a message.  

I hope you have enjoyed this fast Father's Day Card idea and I want to thank you for stopping by the blog today.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend.  Until next time...

Hugs from Brasil.

Sunshine

 We all know people who make us feel good just by being in their presence.  I love the new Feel Like Sunshine stamp which truly describes that gift.  I used a sunburst die and some yellow gingham DSP to convey the warmth and cheerfulness of the sentiment.  Get this and all the great new stamps at TechniqueJunkies.com and use my code TJ10FAITH for 10% off your order!  Have a great day!

A Close Knit Family

 

I AM super lucky to have a close knit family!

On the inside it reads, “In another city!”

I am in Colorado and they’re in Ohio🤣

I do wish we lived close…I promise.

I stamped the Flower Sweep (new this month) on a fun piece of designer paper and painted with shimmering watercolors. Matted with a piece of turquoise card stock and on white card base. The sentiment is from the new Inside Out: No Good Advice and was diecut with a stitched die and put on dimensionals.

Quick & Simple Card

 Hello Crafters - 

Are you ready to create a fun quick and simple card? Todays card is featuring the Faith Requires Trust and Butterfly4 stamps. 

I began by stamping the Faith Requires Trust in the center of the white card stock. The butterfly stamp was randomly stamped along the top and bottom of the white card stock. To add color I took a few ink cubes I and randomly stamped them along the top and bottom of the card stock directly stamping on the butterflies. 

I added gold glitter gems to the heads of the butterflies. It really was quick and simple and made for a beautiful card! 

I hope you were inspired and use your TJ stamps to create something similar using this technique. Use TJ10Shalana at checkout. Thank you for stopping by and Happy Crafting!
