Inked Shadows by Judy Jackson

 

I used a die cut from Sizzix.  I sponged ink on the flowers as well.   Stamp credits are from Stamp Camp. I spritzed some glimmer spray to add some highlights!  I LOVE glimmer spray!  It often adds just the right touch.

 

I hope you Christmas holiday was just wonderful!

When Mojo Hides

Ann Clack here with a little advice on what to do when Mojo is hiding from  you!  Tonight when I went into the Stamp Hole to create this card, I had NO idea what to do.  So, I thought I would tackle the problem with a little different approach.  I grabbed the first TJ technique idea that I saw in my room.  It happened to be this Leaf on which I had used the BigShot Hammer technique.  From there I went to my trusty box of backgrounds and found the Ghostly Spatters background.  Add the papers, ribbon and a little edge distressing and you have created!!  Mojo may have been hiding but I got my assignment done in spite of it!  enjoy!

Holly Brown: Ribbon Tab Border with Butterfly

Hi Junkies!  It's Holly posting today, and I'm sharing this card that uses the new Ribbon Tab Border technique.  This technique is in the latest issue of Technique Junkies (Dec 2012/Jan 2013), and it really is a lot of fun.  If you have a ton of ribbons like I do, this is a great way to use them up.

The background script stamp is from Cornish Heritage Farms and the sweet butterfly/flower stamp is from Sweet n Sassy Stamps (a TJ vendor).  I colored the floral stamp with Copic markers and then cut it out and used dimensionals to pop it up on the script background.  I had a great time picking and choosing ribbons to match up with the colored image.  :-)

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  Get inky!!

Stickers Galore

 

Well two weeks does fly by when you throw a couple of holidays into the mix! This card uses the Stickers Galore technique from the current newsletter. I added the gesso option as I think you can barely make out in the photos.. The center focal point was cut out with my Cricut from the Paper Lace cartridge. Fun isn't it? The stickers are just a random bunch I found in my folder. The stamp is from Ikadinkado. This is a fast easy and fun technique...Thanks Hetty! Isn't it amazing that there is ALWAYS some reason to make a card? Well Valentine's Day is the reason for this card. Give this technique a try. I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

Thanks for stopping by. See you back here is two more weeks.

Happy New Year!

Tri-Shutter Christmas Card

Hello TJ Friends~ Kathie McGuire here on your stamping weekend with a Tri Shutter Christmas card. This technique can be found on the Fancy Folds and Motion CD. 40 of my christmas cards this year were Tri Shutter cards. Although I've been making Tri Shutters for a long time, I had never made so many for Christmas cards. Hands down, I never received so many wonderful calls and emails with comments about the cards. I'll be sharing a lot of them here with you over the next several months, so be sure to revisit me here often! The majority of the panels are covered with purchased background papers. The long, thin center panel(teal colored holly) is metal from Add A Little Dazzle along with the small panels which are silver with a magenta design. I embossed both metal panels with a Cuttlebug folder and then used a sanding block to remove the color. Metal is so much fun to work with! Thanks for stopping by today! Kathie

Scribble Borders Tutorial

Nancy Dawson here with the Scribble Borders Technique featured in the December 2012/January 2013 Newsletter! Such a fun and easy technique. I especially like it for the bold stamps and male-oriented cards!

Now that the holidays are winding down, I hope we all  have more time for creating. Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and had lots of quality time with friends and family.

Happy Stampin' & Scrappin'
