Snowman Highlights

Hi, Bloggers!  Ann Clack here with a little Cuttlebug Highlights on this cute snowman.  I have a lady in our stamping group that used this snowman as an ornament.  She was published in Stampers Sampler.  Lucky Girl!  I made this one into a card by folding my paper and cutting it with the die.  I held the fold a little lower than the top of the snowman's head. 

The snowman was cut out of a tag board weight paper that was plain grey on one side and white on the other.    The Cuttlebug Highlights were sanded instead of inked.  I used punches for the snowflakes on his hat and body.  Elizabeth Craft glitter dots on the little snowflakes and glitter on the hearts.

Technique of the Week

 

 

 

Hi everyone, Jackie K here with the TOTW which is the Chain Link technique from the current newsletter. I hope you enjoy this card and it encourages you to try this fun, fast, and easy technique. You have seen some other wonderful examples from the other Design Team members and from members of the TJ Yahoo group. So give it a try. Post your results so that we can all be inspired by what you create.

I had to improvise on the punch so as you see anything is possible with a bit of ingenuity. The sentiment is an oldie but a goodie from Club Scrap.

I will be back in a couple of days with the next TOTW which I'm sure you will enjoy!

Keep on creating, it is good for your soul!

 

There is also something different about this card but for now it is a secret....you may find it in a future newsletter.

Chain Link

Hello, Beth Norman, here.  How is your week going so far?  Enjoying the cooler temperatures?  I'm already wearing my winter coat.

To brighten things up for you, I created a Chain Link card using stamps from Mark's Finest Papers.  I love sunflowers, hence the name of my blog Sunflowers and Dragonflies.  My image was coloured with Copic markers.

To create my band that separates the sentiment from the chain link, I used Washi tape.  Gotta love the stuff!

Thank you for taking the time to drop by.

Washi Weave

Hi Technique Junks!

Hetty here, with one of the techniques rom the

Oct/Nov 2013 newsletter. Have you tried them?

Today I need a quick one, for I am just back

from the Club Scrap retreat in Kiberley Wisconsin

(whisch ofcourse was fantastic, meeting friends

and getting so much new inspiration).

I chose the online bonus technique:

Washi Weave.

There are so many diffrent rolls of

washi paper around and a lot of people

are trying to find some fun use

for it. How about using it

for decorating the background paper?

Halloween inspiration with Tim Holtz 

Mini Halloween 3 stamps that I just

bought in the US in my short shopping time

in between workshops.

It was fun to create cards again, but now i have to

go back to do some mor unpacking and gettin

my craft room organized with all

the new goodies!

 

Have a creative day!

Tri Cut Die

 

This technique is from the August/September issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter

All of the stamps are from Stampin Up. The flourish die cut is from Impression Obsession and the large die is from Spellbinders, on of the Grand Caliper  dies. . The card does have a white border which is hard to see with the white b/g.

I hope you like the card and are inspired to try one yourself.

See you soon. Jackie K
