Birthday Donuts

 

 Good morning, Junkies!  It's Holly posting today.  After focusing on Christmas cards for the last few months, I am now turning my attention toward birthday cards.  I want to make my cards for the year ahead because I am terrible at mailing them out!  Let's see if this helps - cross your fingers!

On this card, I went super simple.  It's just a white card folded in half, and I stamped this fun Birthdays and Donuts image from Technique Junkies with black ink.  After the ink dried, I colored the donuts with Luminance colored pencils and went over the sprinkles and glaze squiggles with a white gel pen.  That sentiment just cracks me up.  LOL

Want to add this stamp to your stash?  Use this code, TJ10Holly, and you will get 10% off your order at Technique Junkies.  Grab this Birthdays and Donuts stamp, check out the new Catherine Pooler ink pads, and pick out a few gorgeous Shimmering Bliss sprays.  Happy shopping!

Retro Merry Christmas

 Happy Wednesday, everyone! I hope this day finds you relaxed and enjoying the holiday season. I have been working on my watercoloring and this Retro Merry Christmas sentiment was with TJ's latest release. Super simple card to create. I layered a red panel with an embossed leaves folder, some splatters and some bakery twine to finish it off. This is a small slimline card and they DO NOT cost extra to mail!

My wish for everyone this week is to take a breath and enjoy what is.

Hanging with my Gnomies

 Hello. Tracy Shultz, The Hopeful Crafter here with you to share a holiday card.  Today I have a cute card that features two stamps from Technique Junkies. But, before I give you the details on my card, I need to remind you that today, December 15, 2021 is the last day for the Technique Junkies Inventory Reduction Sale.  Over 200 stamps have been reduced to 35% off plus you can use my code: TJ10Tracy to save an additional 10%  Here's a link to the inventory reduction page: https://techniquejunkies.com/december-inventory-reduction-sale/

The card that I made features the Hanging with My Gnomies Stamp (SD1015) which I colored with red and green Karin markers. I colored the beards with Aqua Shimmer and trimmed with the Deckle Trimmer. I used a domed foam blending tool to ink blend Spruce Catherine Pooler ink along the deckled edges. Technique Junkies now sells Catherine Pooler inks. The background stamp is Baubles (S713), which I stamped with Spruce and Rouge Catherine Pooler Inks. I ink swiped the card base with Catherine Pooler Spruce Ink, thus creating a perfectly matched mat layer.

Dear Santa

 Hello Friends!

I'm up on the Technique Junkies blog to share a fun card, using some great stamps from Technique Junkies.

For this card, I used Inside Out: 12 Cookies Set of 10, and SD1044 Bah Humbug.

The stamping was done, and the image was colored with Copic markers. A bit of Glossy Accents was used on nose, toes, and eyes.  The Shining Star stencil was then used to accent the background. I used another stamp from the sentiment set listed above to give the envelope a bit of 'happy'!

So glad you stopped by today!

Don't forget!!! You can always save 10% on your orders by entering TJ10Patti at checkout.

Be sure to head over to the Technique Junkies store and do a little crafty shopping!

Hugs and smiles,

Technique Junkies Inventory Reduction Sale

 

Happy Wednesday! Pam here and I took a break from Christmas and decided to create with one of the stamps in our inventory reduction sale. This stamp is called Key Script and it is perfect for the collage person! I used the color challenge from splitcoaststampers.com CC873 from Tuesday which was mint macaron, blushing bride and crumb cake. I stamped it on watercolor paper using my Misti. Next, I used my markers in these colors for the mint and blushing bride and then swiped the crumb cake pad around the edges and then spritzed water on entire paper and dried with heat tool. My sentiment is from Lighthouse Sentiments (not in sale). To finish it off I added some burlap and a gold dragonfly. Check out the inventory reduction sale here for a total of 45% off when you use my code TJ10Pam. A 10% discount will be applied to items not in the sale.
