TJ Inkspirations: Howl-O-Ween Stencil Omitting

Remember when we used to create a mask over stamped images when adding color around them? Well today's video shows how to use a stencil, tacked down with Pixie Spray, along with (teeny-tiny blending brushes to get designs in the little areas around an image without masking. 

Today we are Stencil Omitting. (Hmmmm. Kind of sounds like a crime, but its not!)

The video today uses Ink Blending Brushes with IZINK Dye InksPixie Spray and a Stencil to create a great backdrop for the wonderful Howl-O-Ween stamp that was released this month.

Here is the finished piece from the video:

Pixie Spray is a light-tack stencil adhesive that will change the way you create with stencils. You can create beautiful, crisp stencil projects without painter's tape.

The 2" x 2" Aladine IZINK Ink Pads are lovely little inks have a beautiful foam pad, and at $2.99 they are priced right, too.  All of the inks are available individually, of course, but if you are a get-it-all kind of person, you might want all 20 of the inks for just $49.99 - 15% off!

 I blend these inks with Ink Blending Brushes in the video - also new to the TJ Store. They are, by far, the easiest and best way I have ever blended ink. We have the orignal black handled brushes ($24.95), and now we have pretty Rose Gold Handles ($27.95 - 'cause sometimes we just need pretty things!), too!

I hope you are inkspired by today's issue. See you next week!

Tree Rings Woodland Greetings

Good morning fellow stampers!  Today I'm posting a newly released Tree Rings from Technique Junkies.  I thought the Tree Rings lent itself to using some woodland dies, and by using Happy Birthday 3, I turned it into a birthday card.  One cannot have enough masculine cards.  Right?!

You can get 10% off Tree Rings and Happy Birthday 3, and any other item that isn't in the clearance rack, at 10% off simply by using my discount code TJ10Beth.  Now who doesn't love a discount?!


I stamped Tree Rings with brown Momento onto Kraft cardstock and matted it with So Saffron.  Brown Momento was stamped on So Saffron and cut out using a scallop punch.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hope!

Hope is Stronger is a wonderful encouraging thought  when facing a difficult situation. 
 I thought Roses made a perfect background for the verse.

I watercolored the roses with the new to Technique Junkies Aladine Liquid Pigment Inks.  They are very concentrated so they needed some water to be "water colors."


Please remember to use my code - TJ10Judy - when you check out. That will save you 10% on your whole order.

Have a great day and get inky!

Leaves Turn Frame

Hello, Lynda Joy here, with some inspiration for a couple of the new September release stamps.  I was inspired by the upcoming fall season, which is my favorite time of year!  Our leaves have not started turning yet, but the ones on my card sure have.
Stamps:  Autumn Framed Sentiments  
              Leaves Turn 

I inked the leaves from the Autumn Framed Sentiments with distress ink minis, and stamped them onto a natural card stock panel.  I repeated inking and stamping with different fall colors, until I had created a frame of leaves.

I used a Dove blending tool to pull color from the outlines of the stamps, tinting the leaves slightly.

I stamped the  verse with Memento rich cocoa ink.  I thought a touch of gold was in order, so added some gold cording and some gold metallic pearls.  I attached the whole shebang to a rust colored A2 card front.  

That's it, easy-peasy, thanks to the amazing Autumn Framed Sentiments stamp set!  So many ways to use this.  And the sentiments included in the set are fabulous!  

You can see two more cards that I created with this set on my post HERE.

Don't forget to use my code, TJ10Lynda, to get 10% extra off your Technique Junkies store order.  And you have through today to get 15% off all the September release stamps.  Combined, that's 25% off new release stamps!

I hope I've inspired you to create something beautiful today.  

Blessings,
