All these cats!

 IYKYK. The All these Cats stamp is so cute with the Kitty Love background, don't you think? Both from www.techniquejunkies.com.

Curly Tailed Cats...

Hope your week is off to a good start!

I have two fun Technique Junkies cards to share here on the Technique Junkies blog. 

Here is my first card. This was created using the Better with a Dog stamp from the February Technique Junkies release. This was one of my favorite stamps from the release! The photo doesn't show true colors. Believe it or not, the card base behind the white strips is EXACTLY the same color as the cardstock matting the image. I cut lots of white strips, and mounted them over top of the card base with dimensional foam, then stamped and matted the image, which was adhered directly to the card front.

Next up is another easy, fun card! All These Cats, was stamped in black ink onto a white card panel. I stamped a 'mask', fussy cut it, and laid the mask over top of the black stamping. I then stamped the background, using Curly Tailed Cats, and a pretty blue ink.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hi Junkies!  (Chris here)

I'm so excited to share this today.  I love revisiting "old" Techniques.  It has been about 10 years since I did this... but hey it still works!   This is called Joseph's Coat and you can learn how to do it here

No Cat Ever

 

As soon as I saw these Curly Tailed Cats, I knew they would be the perfect pairing for the Dotted Blooms background stamp from a previous release.  On a white background I stamped the Dotted Blooms with some Catherine Pooler ink in the color Hot Tub, a nice sort of retro color.

Next, I stamped the Curly Tailed Cats with Versafine Clair in the color Nocturne and then tossed some clear embossing powder over the top and heat embossed them. The rest of the process can be seen in the video below!

 The fun retro cat background here is just so whimsical and fun, you can't help but smile! I stamped the cats on patterned background paper and topped it with the Cats and More Cats stamp. All can be found here:

This adorable patterned paper - from my stash - is a perfect whimsical background for the Better with a Dog stamp! You can find the stamp here:

Let Me See Your Shamrocks!

Hi Junkies! 

Most of us have tons of background stamps.  I love them!  I'm always looking for new ways to use them.  Check out how I used ink cubes to get a multicolored background.  I hope you will give this a try.  It was so much fun to create!

Happy Crafting, 

Chris
