Circle color collage Post by Judy Jackson

Good day from Judy Jackson. Have you ever had a day or so when nothing you planned to accomplish was actually able to be accomplished?  Well, that has been the story the last few days!  I won't bore you with the details -- but does having three little granddaughters visit us give you any clues?  :)  We love them all dearly but -- oh my do they keep us busy!

This card is made with a brand new stamp set from Stampin" Up.  When I saw it, I knew it was "calling to me!"   I knew it would be perfect for the Circle Color Collage technique and many others!  How many TJ techniques can you think of that this set would work well with?   Just off of the top of my head I can thinks of a few within this current newsletter! I think you will see this stamp set again!

And the background embossed piece?  I do not remember the "exact technique" I used to create it but was a TJ one!  Would you believe the card stock is actually a light blue color? 

Enjoy summer!

Ann's Dotty Edges

Ann Clack here with a cute little Sailor Girl from Peddler's Pack!  I used the Dotty Edges technique from the most recent newsletter.  She is colored with copic markers.  The background was made by spraying my copic marker on white paper then spattering it with a slightly darker color.  This card was used as a sample in my upcoming copic class!  Hope you enjoy this monochromatic card!

Holly Brown: Glitter Roll Banner

Hi Junkies!  It's Holly posting today, and I'm sharing this glittery card that I created using the Glitter Roll technique.  I love glitter, and this technique is a wonderful way to make sure that the glitter actually sticks on your project instead of your fingers!  LOL  I have a complete listing of the products I used to create this card as well as a cool tip on how to create the banner from a non-banner-shaped border die in my blog post here.    I hope you have a wonderful day!

Try that Technique Thursday

Good Thursday Morning Ladies!

Nancy Dawson here with today's Try that Technique. This 3D Shadow is located on the Stampin' Companion CD. If you don't have this CD it is a MUST-HAVE addition to your technique collection especially if you are an SU Demo!

I used the new Stampin' Up Two by Two stamp for the focal point accented by Baja Breeze cardstock and Bashful Blue cardstock is the main color. It would be great to see any of your creations so please play along!

Thanks for stopping by. This challenge will run for he next two weeks so you have lots of time to try it out!

Band Aid Box Cupcake Cards-Paper Piecing

Hello TJ Friends! Kathie McGuire here on your stamping Saturday! Today, I'm sharing a gift project I made for a dear friend who has a penchant for cupcakes. The cupcake image is from The Rubber Cafe. I wanted more than a card, so I decided to make a boxed set of cards for her with a cupcake theme. The technique I used is Paper Piecing from the Feb/2003 TJ newsletter. I stamped the upper part of the cupcake image onto pattern paper.The box is called a Band Aid box. I printed a template onto cardstock and cut it out and folded it. Then, I filled it with four 3" X 3" cards. Thanks for stopping by today and HAPPY TECHNIQUING!

Acrylic Block Taping

Hello Stampers,

Hetty here and even though I still cannot stamp,

I can share my cards for try that technique with you,

for I made some for the newsletter.

 Here are my samples:

Hope they inspire you to try this easy technique that

you find in the June 2012 TJ newsletter.

And before you ask:

my arm is getting better every day. I have to do

excercises and use it to get the movement going.

It still hurt, but it is getting better. I cannot lift it, but typing

is much easier now that I can use two hands.

No prepressing and lifting and time will

do most of the healing. So I hope in a week or two

I will be back with some new artwork.

Have a creative day!
