Advice From A Giraffe
Hello, happy Sunday! Lynda Joy here with a card to share from the February release.
Stamps: Advice From A Giraffe
Modern Encouragements, Set of 4 (inside)
This giraffe has some really great advice!
I created the background with distress oxide inks. I just added them to my craft mat, then spritzed with water, and smooshed the panel into the inks.
I repeated this with different colors until I had reached my desired background. I love using this technique for these types of solid stamps.
When totally dry, I added the Advice From A Giraffe image with brown archival ink.
Inside: Verse from the Modern Encouragements set.
I hope you are enjoying this release, and have found some inspiration here.
Don't forget, you can save 10% off your entire order with my code, TJ10 Lynda!

Harlequin Hugs
Hello Friends!
With Valentines day being right around the corner I decide to share a valentine card using Love Harlequin, one of my favorite background stamps from Technique Junkies Stamps.
You can save 10% on this stamp and the rest of your entire order by using my code TJ10Ceal and today is the last day to save an additional 15% on the new release stars for February so hurry over.
To create this card I simply stamped the background image using embossing ink and then embossed it with white powder (this is also gorgeous embossed in gold!) and then created an ombre background using the blending brushes with pink inks. I added a strip of washi tape and a die cut to finish the card.

Best Things in Life
Hi friends!
I have a super easy card to share with you today. I'm featuring a beautiful stamp, Best Things in Life, from the February new releases. Through February 8th, you can receive 15% off the newly released stamps, so this might be a great time to get your order in! The 15% will be automatically applied. You can also save an extra 10% (on anything!) by entering TJ10Patti at checkout.
Here is my card:
Sometimes, we just need the right sentiment, and not a lot of distraction. This stamp gave me just what I needed to send to someone special! This was so easy to create - I simply stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on a scrap of patterned paper, die cut the whole thing, using an 'Outside the Box' technique on the greenery. After that, it was just a matter of some creative matting. Ta-da!
Hope you like it! Be sure to head over to the Technique Junkies store and check out the incredible new stamps this month!
Thanks for stopping by,
Patti J.

Dog Kiss Valentine
Ok, so is it wrong to make a valentine card for your dog? lol Don't answer that. Because I totally did. After being laid up for a week and my lil Murphy hanging with me the whole time, he deserves a little valentine love. Don't judge. I'm crazy that way.
And I'm totally having fun with some new products being carried by Techique Junkies...I think you're going to love them too. But first, a peak at my project.
Will you just look at all that shiny lushiousness! I used the new Heat Transfer Foil (in Rose Gold) and Transfer Gel Duo to get that foiled goodness. And it couldn't be any easier. Here is how my card came together.
To begin, I stamped the image from Dog Kiss (I snipped off the sentiment, which can always be added back at a later time) with Versamark Ink and heat embossed it in black. I cut a mask of the image and placed it over the stamped area. I used the Lace Doily Stencil from A Creative Life Stencils and sprayed the back with Pixie Spray. I love how the spray gives the stencil a gentle tackiness and holds it in place while you use it. Using a spatula, I placed the Transfer Gel Duo across the stencil. All the excess used was scraped back into the jar for future projects. I removed the stencil and washed it off. I removed the mask and left the gel to dry for about an hour.
Once the gel turned clear and tacky, I placed a section of the foil across the area and ran it through the heat embossing unit (I just use a cheapo unit and it worked just fine). When I removed the foil, I got an added bonus that the area I had heat embossed in black also took the foil. (I now have ideas of other ways I may try to use this foil!)
I trimmed down the piece and matted it with black cardstock. Using foam tape, I attached that piece to my A2 card base.
I then stamped the sentiment from the Simple Sentiments Set, Style 1a. I love how bold these sentiments are. I stamped it with Versamark ink and embossed it with black on a gold piece of cardstock. I then attached that to the top of the card using foam tape.
Here is a closeup...look at that awesome shine!
Now I don't know if my dog will appreciate this card as much as I appreciate my dog, but it's ok. I love him no matter what.
Don't forget that all the new stamps released February 1st are on sale for 15% off until the 8th of the month. Bundle that with my 10% off code, and save 25% on the new stamps. That 10% is good for any of the products carried on the Technique Junkies site. Just enter the code at checkout.
No matter who you make your cards for, give this foil a try. I think you're going to love it as much as I do!
Til next time,
Keepin' it inky!
