Fishing You A Fintastic Father's Day (Say That 10 Times Fast)

 

Hi everyone.  Does your dad love fishing?  Or, maybe an uncle or close friend that you consider your dad?  Here is a quick and easy Father's Day card idea for you.

• Make your card size - I made a top-folding A2 card using white cardstock.  Then I went through my stash of papers, picked a masculine paper to use, and adhered a piece to my card front. 
• I stamped Jumping Fish Linograph on a piece of white cardstock, die-cut it with a rectangle die, and adhered it to a piece of blue cardstock. 
  

• I adhered a piece of black fun foam to the back of the blue cardstock.  
• I typed up the sentiment on my computer, printed it out, and die-cut it using a banner die, and a piece of the same blue cardstock using another banner die.
  
• If you want to use this for a birthday card, just change the sentiment to say Fishing you a Fintastic Birthday.  

• I adhered my stamped image piece to the card front.  Then I adhered my printed sentiment to my blue cardstock, cut it to size, and adhered it to the card front. 

Super easy and fast card to make.  If you want to add color to your image, you can use a cloud stencil with light blue ink behind the fish.  I did this with the same image on my March 30th post.  Click HERE to check that one out too.

Until next time...

I'll be Watching You

Happy Wednesday with Technique Junkies!

My share is my life these days! We have two dogs and 3 grand dogs and we watch them A LOT! The two stamps used to make this creation are the Paw Prints Background and I'll be Watching You. I decided to go monochromatic and then added a scrap piece of designer paper and a couple brads.

Head on over to the the website here and do some shopping. Feel free to use my code TJ10Pam for 10% off.

Cheers, 

Pam

 

Flowers and friends

 

I love this sentiment from the Technique Junkies In Full Bloom Sentiments. It makes for such a wonderful friendship card. I paired it today wit h the Flower Border stamp, which was colored with Copic markers. Clean and simple - but oh so pretty!

Quick & Simple Ink Blended Card

  Hello Crafters - 

Creating a quick and simple ink blending cards allows endless possibilities with how you use your stamps. Today's card is featuring 2 beautiful stamps from the March stamp release: Flower and Wing Silhouette and Black Queen stamp for the sentiment. 

Mustard Seed, Dried Marigold and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide was used to create the ink blended focal point in the center of my card base. I then stamped the image and sentiment directly on the blended rectangle. Isn't it lovely! 

 To embellish the image I used bitty sparkles to add accents to the flowers and butterflies. 

I absolutely adore the finished card. 💗

I hope you are inspired! Use code TJ10Shalana at checkout. Thanks for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Drinking the Coffee

Deb here with a card made using a favorite stamp of mine as we wait for the new Technique Junkies Release on April 15. Coffee-themed cards are always on my To-Do list and the Drinking the Coffee image is perfect for all of my coffee-loving friends !!

• I stamped the image on a piece of cream cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink .
• The cup was colored with COPIC  markers.
• I adhered a piece of coffee-cup patterned paper to a reddish-brown card base.
• The stamped panel was adhered to the patterned paper with foam tabs.
• I placed a heart gem on the coffee cup.

I hope you like my latest coffee-themed card - I am sure there will be many more made with this stamp and all of the other fun coffee images that Technique Junkies has to offer . You can check them all out  at this link HERE . We will see you soon with the April Release.. Until then, stay creative !!

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.
