TJ Inkspirations: Glitter swipe resist

Today I have a very easy tutorial for you using Nuvo Glitter Markers. This is an easy resist technique with an shimmering end result.

It just so happens that I JUST received my shipment of the brand new Nuvo Glitter Markers. With this addition of 6 gorgeous markers, it brings the total number available to 15; a great number of markers for coloring a ton of images.

I have a quick chart below of all of the colors. I also put the 6 new markers into a bundle at 10% off, so if you already have the other three sets of markers, this is a good way to add the other 6. I love these new colors!

I hope you are a little inkspired by today's issue. See you next week!

Happy Mother's Day


Hello friends!! Giovana here today sharing a couple of cards especially made for Mother's day. Mother's Day is just around the corner and I think these sets are perfect for this occasion. 
For these cards I used a couple of stamps from our new April Release: Fairy Tale Flowers and the sentiment is from All the Moms.

For this first card I stamped the Fairy Tale Flowers background on a piece of watercolor paper in Jet Black Stazon, then colored the images with Spectrum Noir ColourTint pencild, then added Sparkle Pens to give it a bit of shimmer (hard to see on the picture)
Then die-cut the background and adhered it on a piece of gray cardstock with foam adhesive. Then, added the panel to a white card base.
The sentiment was stamped on a piece on vellum in Versamark Watermark and white embossing powder.
Finally, I embellished it with small pearls.


For this second card I stamped the background image on a piece of smooth white cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black, I inked the center of the image a lot darker and fade it a bit around the edges, colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers, making it darker in the center and lighter on the outer edges. Stamped the sentiment on a piece of gray cardstock in Versamark Watermark and added white embossing powder, then heat set.
This is a 4.25" x 4.25" square card.


These are the sets I used:

Frenchified Celebration

When I saw the new Frenchified Clouds stamp, I knew I wanted to ink it in multiple colors.  

Remember, if you go shopping at Technique Junkies, use my discount code TJ10Stephanie for 10% off your purchase.

Today I stamped the Frenchified Clouds using a Distress Oxide Primary Color Palette.  I used my MISTI inking one section at a time overlapping slightly to get the blended colors.



I used the red & blue inks for my Birthday Cat & Time to Celebrate Sentiment using the same overlapping technique.


I finished with a few sequins ... because nothing says party like that kitty face ... and some sequins.


Time to Party for sure!

I added the verse on vellum and adhered it with my Xyron machine.  A ribbon and some glitter paper are the embellishments.

Flowers for Mom

Hello Technique Junkie Fans!

Sometimes it seems like life is going from one holiday to the next.  What's coming up?  
Mother's Day!  
This month's release has some great stamps just for mom.  I used ' All the Moms' 
for this card.  And a PSA- Today is the LAST day to get 15% off all
 April release stamps, including 'All the Moms', no code needed, discount will
automatically show up in your cart~
 
flowers nicely.  I stamped them a couple of times, using my MISTI to use multiple 
colors on the flowers.  They were then fussy cut out.  
Likewise, I used the MISTI to stamp the All the Moms image, allowing me to use multiple
different colors on the image.  I then heat embossed the sentiment to make it pop, but it does 
not show up in photos.  That too was fussy cut out along two sides. 
The images were then layered and dimension was added with dimensional tape.

  
Don't forget, today is the last day of the April New Release Sale.  
If you want anything other than the new release stamps, use
code TJ10LeeAnn to get 10% off your entire order.  


Thanks for visiting and I hope I have inspired you!
