Technique Tuesday Sneak Peek - Day 1

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 1.  It's the end of the month and it's the build up to release day for Technique Tuesday.  Today I'm sharing the Joyous Juniper stamp set and coordinating crafting dies. This stamp set perfect for those last minute holiday cards.  Such an easy stamp set to color and it really makes a statement.

I stamped out the image three times and colored them with my Copic markers.  I used the coordinating die cut them out so I could overlap them on the bottom of my card.  I ink blended this beautiful background for my junipers to sit on and splattered some white gouache onto to look like snow.  I stamped the sentiment in versa mark and used black embossing powder to heat set it.

Thanks for stopping by.  I'll see you back here tomorrow for sneak peek day 2.  Have a great day everyone. 

Technique Tuesday Sneak Peek Day 1

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 1.  It's the end of the month and it's the build up to release day for Technique Tuesday.  Today I'm sharing the Christmas Cocoa stamp set. This stamp set perfect for those warm and cozy holiday cards.  While making this card I just had to sip on some hot chocolate.

For my card today I stamped out the the mugs from this stamp set and colored them with Copic markers.  When I color with any medium and I'm using designer paper, I always make sure to match my medium to the colors displayed in the designer paper pack.  This helps me get a very cohesive looking project.  One I colored up my images I fussy cut them out and added just a touch of glitter to my whipped cream.  Next I stamped out a sentiment and layered it with some brown card stock for a nice border.  

I created a layout with some fun holiday paper and placed it on my card base.  I popped up my little hot cocoa mugs filled coffee syrup and hot chocolate (yup it's delicious) on the panel going vertically  down my card.  I placed the sentiment next to the vertical panel and added just a few sparkly gems to finish off my card.

I hope you enjoyed your visit today.  Make sure to swing by here tomorrow for more sneak peek inspiration.  All products will be available Nov 1st in the Technique Tuesday store.

Technique Tuesday - Sneak Peek Day 2

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 2.  If you missed yesterday's sneak peek day 1 you can click and see what I made.  We are just one day away from release day.  Today I'm sharing the Sunny Flowers stamp set and matching Sunny Flowers crafting dies.  I love that each month Technique Tuesday releases some kind of floral image.  They are just so easy to color and make great cards with.  

For my card today I colored the images with my Copic markers and polychromo pencils because I just love how they work so well on floral images.  Once I finished coloring my flowers I used the matching crafting die to cut it out.  To add some texture to my flowers I used dandelion nuvo drops and added it in a dot pattern in the center of my flowers.  I kept my card really simple by using some fresh colored polka dot paper I had in my stash. I used the smile crafting die for my sentiment.  Instead of just keeping the smile all white, I sponged on some twisted citron distress ink to add some color to it. The final touch was some really pretty sequin I also had in my stash.  A few white dashes from my gelly roll pen on some turquoise paper made the perfect banner for my sentiment. 

Okay peeps tomorrow is release day.  Can't wait for you to see what the other design team members have in store for you.  Make sure to swing by the Technique Tuesday blog to take a peek at everything.  Remember, all the links in day's post and yesterday's post go live tomorrow.  I'll see you guys back here tomorrow.

Technique Tuesday - Sneak Peek Day 1

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 1.  It's the end of the month and it's the build up to release day for Technique Tuesday.  Today I'm sharing the Adventure Awaits stamp set.  Love this stamp set for all kinds of masculine cards.  I don't know why but it really speaks to a card made for a man.  This stamp set has some beautiful images in it.

I stamped the image repeatedly on kraft card stock in rich cocoa ink.  I then stamped one additional image and colored it with my polychromo pencils and added a layer of glossy accents on top.  Next I fussy cut this piece and glued in on top of the panel of globes.  All that was left was to add this panel to a white card base.

Thanks for swinging by today.  All products will be available for purchase August 1, 2018.  Links below will not work until then.  Thanks in advance for using my affiliate links. See you back here tomorrow for another sneak peek.

Technique Tuesday - Sneak Peek Day 2

Hey peeps.  I'm back with another sneak peek from Technique Tuesday.  I hope you had chance to check out all the fabulous projects the design team made for everyone yesterday.  If you missed it, just head on over to the Technique Tuesday blog and check the ones out for today and yesterday.

For today's card I'm using the beautiful Happy Hydrangea stamp set and the coordinating Happy Hydrangea crafting dies.  As you have seen on my blog I truly love coloring floral images and especially hydrangeas.  This stamp set is no exception.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE it.  I first stamped my image on some bristol smooth paper and colored my bouquet with my polychromo color pencils and used some gamsol to blend out the colors.

Next I stamped out some images in black in on a white card base to have something to sit behind my colored image.  I love the striking look of this card.  Lastly I stamped out a thanks sentiment on black card stock in embossing ink and heat set it with white embossing powder.  Adding just some simple purple gems finished out the sentiment strip.

 Okay that finishes up sneak peek day 2.  Make sure to stop back by tomorrow for the final day and for your chance to purchase this new release.  See ya tomorrow!!

Technique Tuesday - Sneak Peek Day 1

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 1.  It's the end of the month and it's the build up to release day for Technique Tuesday.  Today I'm sharing the Classic Butterfly crafting dies. These crafting dies are sooo pretty to play with.

For my card today I deiced to make a shaker card.  I had this pretty paper already in my stash from a while back (remember to hold onto the background pieces you make, you can use them later on card. 😉). I ran those pretty butterflies through my Gemini Jr and my shaker card was almost complete.

To finish off the shaker part I just placed acetate behind the butterflies, added some pretty sequins and form take and placed a card base behind it.  So easy.  For the sentiment I used the Butterfly Dragon stamp set that will also be released this month.  I LOVE how this fun shaker card turned out.

Make sure to come back tomorrow to see what else we have in store for you to check out for the July release.  Have an awesome day!!

Technique Tuesday - Sneak Peek Day 2

Hey peeps.  It's Technique Tuesday sneak peek day 2.  Oh we are getting closer and closer to release day.  For today's card I'm sharing the Sweet Summer Time stamp and coordinating dies.  As you can see I'm LOVING all the fruit inspired stamps that Technique Tuesday has to offer this month.


This stamp set is just perfect with all it's adorable sentiments and images.  I colored up a few of my pieces of fruit with Copic markers and die cut them out.  Next I sponged a stitched circle with distress inks so I fruit had a nice backdrop to pop against.  I placed these pieces on a white cards base and set them aside.

For my sentiment, I deiced to heat emboss it with white embossing powder and use the Sweet Word crafting die with pink card stock to add a nice bright pop of color to my card.  I finished everything off with just a few iridescent gems.
