Deepest Sympathy

 



I used Big Cracks for the background.  I  wanted it to look like porcelain or marble so I kept turning my card stock and changing ink colors to create the look I wanted.    Then  I stamped Praying Hands and colored them with Copic markers ad fussy cut them out and raised them with foam dimensionals.  The verse  comes comes from the With Sympathy set.  It is heat embossed on colored vellum and attached with Xyron adhesive.

And if after you have see the great stamps for March you want  ALL of the March stamps -- we have a deal for you!    The "Gotta Have It All" bundle is a wonderful great price!  

 Anything else you buy (not on sale) can be another 10% off!  What deals for you!!




Have a wonderful March 1!  I hope it is Spring for you soon.  I sure hope it is for me!  And get inky sometime today!

Those We Love


Good morning, Junkies, it's Holly posting today.  Today I'm sharing this beautiful stamp from Technique Junkies called Those We Love.  This is perfect for those moments when you need a sympathy card.  I stamped this with black Memento ink, let it dry, and then loosely colored with the flower with Copic markers.  It looks I watercolored this flower, doesn't it?

Those We Love

Hello! Tracy Shultz, The Hopeful Crafter, here with you today sharing two cards featuring the Those We Love Stamp from the March new release: https://techniquejunkies.com/march-2022-stamp-release/  Save 10% off your order at Technique Junkies with my code: TJ10Tracy

For my first card I used a piece of Hammerill 80 lbs. card stock and stamped using Versamark Ink and heat embossed with Purple Embossing Powder. I used blending brushes to ink blend on top (emboss resist) using Sweet Sixteen and Cummerbund inks by Catherine Pooler. Technique Junkies now carries Catherine Pooler Inks. I used the Sweet Sixteen ink pad to directly swipe the four sides a 4" x 5.25" card panel with the Sweet Sixteen ink pad, creating a matching mat layer. I cut both the stamped panel and the mat layer with stitched edge rectangle dies and added a few purple gems to the card front. I glued both of these layers to a white top fold 4.25 x 5.5" card base. 
For my second card, I used a piece of Hammerill 80 lbs. card stock and stamped using Versamark Ink and heat embossed with Black Embossing Powder. I then ink blended using Tutti Frutti Ink from Catherine Pooler. I only ink blended the outside edges with the fully saturated color using a domed foam blending tool. I went in with a lighter touch and less ink around the center of the panel. I found a piece of patterned paper from my stash with flowers that matched the Tutti Frutti ink color. I used that paper for my mat layer. I used stitched rectangle dies to die cut both the ink blended panel and the mat layer. I added a few black gems and assembled the layers by adhering them to a side folding A2 (4.25" x 5.5") Card Panel.
