Old World Script

Deb here with a different take on the Old World Script stamp from the Technique Junkies March Release.  It's a wonderful script that I decided to stamp and then cut into hearts for a fun slimline card .. 



  • I stamped the Old World Script image with Nautical Blue Memento ink onto a piece of blue wood-grain patterned paper .
  • The  hearts were punched with a paper-punch .
  • I made a slimline card base from a piece of blue and white striped patterned paper.
  • I used nautical-themed stickers from Paper House Productions on the card base .
  • I placed 3 Old World Script hearts down the middle of the slimline card using foam tabs.

Thank you for stopping by to see my latest card from the March Release .  Remember to use my code - TJ10Deb - when you shop at Technique Junkies . It will save you 10% on your order .  I hope you are enjoying some wonderful Spring weather wherever you are ..Until next time, Happy Stamping !!

Faith on Fabric

                                                        

                                                            Hello TJ Friends!

Have you ever added fabric to a card?  I’ve shared this in the past, but in case you missed it…I’m sharing this technique again. If you have some miscellaneous fabrics in your stash or you know a friend that has some - grab some scraps and give this a try.

I’m a tactile person which means I like to touch and feel things. That is one reason I make cards that have fabric on them. They are also unique and one-of-a-kind.

One easy way to make these cards is to start with a heavy card stock base (or repurpose one). Next you’ll gather random size fabric strips, paint glue onto your card with a brush, and add your strips. Be sure to flatten them out. And it’s okay if they dangle off the edge of your card, let them dangle…you’ll trim them after they’ve thoroughly dried on your card.

After it has dried and you trimmed off the excess fabric, add your embellishments and sentiment. Boom! Done!

On this card I used the Faith Requires Trust stamp released this month - plus a button and leaves.

*Stamp your image or sentiment in a color that harmonizes with your fabrics.

                                                        Happy Crafting!

Disco Ball

 Greetings Junkies,   

I love encouragement cards!  Adulting is hard and I think we need than more than ever before.  I was so excited to see this new sentiment from Technique Junkies.  

To make this card I used mirror card stock and glitter card stock.  I wish the camera could capture the sparkle.  I love the mix of texture between the mirror and the glitter.  I used a round circle for the sentiment because disco balls are round.  Simple, but I thought it was the right choice! 

I hope you feel inspired and you remember that you are a a bright light... don't be afraid to shine!

Tornado-esque?


 Something about the Zen Circles stamp from Technique Junkies reminds me of the Wizard of Oz - maybe because it is tornado-esque, or because it all seems a little dream-like. I was determined to use the Flying Monkeys sentiment from the Wisdom of Oz set - and what better to put with it than a monkey? This odd little guy is called "Monkey in a Dress" - but works pretty well nonetheless. All three stamps may be found here:

Easy and Fast Mid-Century Modern Birthday Card

 


Hello everyone, and Happy Saturday.  When I saw the Mid-Century Modern Borders I knew I had to make a birthday card for a friend here who LOVES anything modern or minimalistic.    She also loves black and white and that makes this idea even easier.  

The first thing I did was to die-cut a piece of white cardstock using a stitched rectangle die, stamp the two Mid-Century Modern Border stamps - facing each other - using my Misti, and then stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Floral Framed Sentiments Set of 6.  

I cut a piece of black fun foam and adhered it to the back.  Then I went through my paper stash and found a piece of black and white paper, which I adhered to the front of my A2 card front.  Then I adhered my stamped piece to the card front.   


To finish the card off, I adhered a few black enamel dots to the card front.  


Done.  I'm sure the dots, paired with the rectangles, is going to drive my friend nuts but I love how this turned out and it's so fast to make.  If you see anything on the Technique Junkies website, you can save 10% on those items at checkout by using my code - TJ10Michael.  

Thanks for stopping by the blog today.  Until next time...

Hugs from Brasil.
