Stampbooking: Tag Titles

{Jane Bosi} I love these pictures of my kiddos and their crazy hair!! I must admit, I've been a slacker scrapbooker for the last several years---these pictures are at least a year old (I have many stacks of photos waiting even older than that!) I've always struggled with joining my two passions: stamping and scrapbooking. Until, that is, recently!!! The TJNL Stampbooking CD has truly changed all that for me. Friends, this is a fabulous tool for ANY scrapbooker--brand new or seasoned!!! It's a great way to get even more mileage out of your stamps WHILE saving those precious memories for years to come--my kids love seeing "their pages"--it means so much to them! This is one of 75 techniques on the Stampbooking CD called Tag Titles. It's the perfect way to add a whimsical title to just about any page! In addition to the multitude of techniques on the CD, you'll also find over 150 scrapped/stamped pages for inspiration. Your memories are worth the best!! Check it out!
TTFN, Jane

Quad Tag Border from the NEW "Stampbooking"CD



Scrapbooking + Rubber stamping = Stampbooking!


Stampbooking is a wonderful way to incorporate your rubber stamps into your scrapbooks.


This scrapbook page is a "sneak peak" of a page I created using the Quad Tag Border technique from the new "Stampbooking CD" that Pat has to offer to you.


This wonderful CD offers you 75 tutorials for using your rubber stamps in your scrapbooks. Pat Huntoon, Jane Bosi, and members of the TJ Desigin Team worked together to create over 150 scrapbook pages of eye candy for you to view and become inspired.


The 75 tutorials are in a PDF format and are able to be viewed in either a PC or a MAC computer using Adobe reader.


Here is a link for you to use to preorder this wonderful CD:




I am sure your scrapbook pages will be oohed and ahhed over when you use the techniques from this CD.


In case you wondered, these three delightful little girls are some of my grandchildren playing in the sprinkler.


Have a wonderful scrapping and stamping day!

Altered Box: Watercolor Roll




Hello Saturday! Kathie McGuire here with another little altered box.

On this project, I used a TJ technicue from the 6/06 newsletter, "Watercolor Roll". You'll see it on the orange leaf on the left side. It added just enough color to the leaf to give it some depth, but not enough to overpower it.

I hope you've enjoyed seeing my altered box and thanks for stopping by today!!

The Technique Junkie Design Team has been participating in sharing techniques on Gingersnap Creations. I used the Faux Tooled Leather technique from the Emboss or Die CD. I used some background paper that had a western theme, and the cowboy stamp is from Stampers Anonymous. I used my Copics to color this cowboy in the process of breaking this horse. I hope he comes out the winner!


I have been busy stamping and scrapping a lot these days. Now I need to clean it all and put stuff away because my daughter and family are comping for Mother's Day! There are little people and a lot of stamping tools are both tempting and dangerous for little folks.


Have a great weekend!

Hetty's folded pocket card

Hello fellow stampers!
Those pocket cards are so neat, I also had to make one.
I think they are great to use when you want to
give money for a birthday.
I made this one for my SIL, who just
did a course in sushi making
(and yummy he is good at it!!).
He also has a special birthday,
so that is the reason I made a
special card for him.

For this card I used a new digital stamp by
Bonibleaux Digital Designs
an  found a wonderful free font
called Chinese Takeaway.

The digital stamp is colored with copic markers
and the scrap paper is from Stampin'Up!
and some digital paper that was printed
on my printer for this card.
More info on my Craftchaos Blog.

And if you want to make one of these
Folded Pocket cards, you find the
tutorial on the Fancy Fold and Motion CD.
(pss....... we are busy working on a new CD,
so keep your eyes open!)

Have a creative day!
