Technique Junkies Stamps April Release

Hello friends and Happy Easter and Welcome April!!

Today is the beginning of a new month, that means a new release from Technique Junkies Stamps!!

The selection for this month is amazing, love that Technique Junkies has a little something for every style!

If you arrived here from the Technique Junkies Blog, then you are in the right place, if not go back to check it out!

Ok, let me show you the cards I made for you today

All Shapes

Love this couple! Aren't they adorable?!

This card is very simple, "All Shapes" image was on a piece of white cardstock in Memento Tuxedo Black, then added a bit of color with markers. Then, die-cut it with scalloped stitched dies, I die-cut a piece of patterned paper as well. Panels were added to card base with foam tape. I found a sheet of scrapbook stickers and added a couple that fit the best {wink, wink}

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

All the Moms

Since I got the "All the Moms" stamp, I had the idea to create a window card, I mean with a real window, hehehe. So, I cut my stamps, yep, I used scissors and cut the sentiment and the floral part. I stamped the sentiment on a piece of black cardstock in Versamark Watermark Ink and added blue embossing powder and heat set, then die-cut the piece.

With the help of my MISTI I positioned the floral part on a corner in Blue Ink, kept the stamp in the same spot on my misti and stamped the opposite corner.

Die-cut a frame and added to the window, then stamped the sentiment on a piece of vellum and added it under the frame.

Finally, added blue rhinestones and the sentiment inside the card .

Inside of card.

Poppy Bouquet

This image is very pretty! I stamped the "Poppy Bouquet" image on a piece of watercolor paper in Antique Linen Distress Ink, then colored the images with ColourTint Pencils by Spectrum Noir, the colors are very soft and I love how it turned out! Stamped the sentiment from "All the Moms" set on a piece of vellum, then die-cut the pieces. Added sequins and pearls and Brown Gala Glitz in the center of the poppy.

Added panel to card with foam tape.

++++++++++++++++++

Fairy Tale Flowers

Super easy card!!! I stamped the "Fairy Tale Flowers" on a piece of Gold Vellum in Versamark Watermark Ink and Gold Embossing powder, then heat set. Die-cut the background, then cut a diagonal piece of the panel and adhered the piece to a Kraft card base. Stamped the sentiment from "All The Moms" set on a piece of white cardstock and added it to card front, then added pearls and a little banner.

Now, I invite you to visit Ceal's blog!

Don't forget the new release has an instant 15% off until April 8th!! (no coupon needed)

Hope you enjoy the new release.

Have a wonderful day!

Hello Spring

For this project I used the brand new "Spring Branches Die Set" and "Hello Spring Stamp".

I die-cut the branches using White cardstock, then colored them with Spectrum Noir Markers.

For the background panel I used the outer die from "Bunny Frame Die", die-cut it using watercolor paper, then applied Color Burst: Lemon Yellow and Alizarin Crimson.

After the panel got completely dried, I stamped the "Hello Spring" sentiment in Jet Black Stazon Ink.

Then added all the branches to the panel.

Embellished it with pearls.

Happy Easter

For this project I used a background I created with leftover paint the little ones had after painting their picture frames. I thought it would be fun to use it in an Easter project, and loved how this card turned out.

I again used the outer die from "Bunny Frame Die", I die-cut the "Happy Easter" in Gold cardstock, then the "Bunny Border" in pink Cardstock. Added the border with foam tape and glue the sentiment on panel.

Finally I added it to a A2 Card Base.

Hello everyone!! We have another fun collaboration blog hop between My Sweet Petunia and Pink & Main! Amazing projects will be shared from both Design Teams and chances to win too!

I just discovered Pink & Main and the products they offer are adorable! Super cute images, but not only that, papers, dies, ink and more!!

Two lucky commenters from the hop to win one of two prizes:

$50 shopping spree at Pink & Main

So, let me show you the projects I created for you today!

Find Beauty

For this card I used "Doodle Flowers" set. First, I stamped the images on a piece of copy paper, then cut them out (used for masking). I started stamping the bigger flowers on a piece of watercolor paper in Stazon Jet Black ink, then masked them and stamped the little flower and leaves. Since this is a thicker paper, the MISTI is super handy to stamp the image more than once to get the perfect impression.

After that I colored the image and background with Spectrum Noir Aqua. After the panel was dried, stamped the sentiment in Pink & Main Fire Engine color. (Love this color, plus the ink is super duper amazing quality) After that, I added a lined border, added a red panel behind and mounted on a white card base. I used foam tape for every layer. Embellished it with pearls and Clear Shimmer Marker (hard to show on the picture)

Have a dreamy day

For this card I used "Magical Unicorns" set and "Magical Unicorns Die".

I colored the images with Copic Markers, then die-cut them and set aside.

Die-cut the background panel, then used Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink all around the panel, after that I misted it with Frost Sheer Shimmer Spritz and set aside to dry. After the panel was dried, I stamped the sentiment in Stazon Jet Black Ink and the stars in the same Distress Oxide color.

Then, I added all the pieces to the panel with foam tape and embellished it with sequins.

Thanks a Million

This card was super easy and fast to make.

First, I stamped the Thanks from Thanks to you set on a piece of white cardstock in Pink & Main Fire Engine Ink, then I used the background Thanks Die, I die-cut 4 pieces and glued them together.

I created a background using Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide, then added the little hearts from "Magical Unicorns Set" in Fire Engine ink.

Stamped the "A million" on a piece of vellum in Stazon Jet Black Ink.

Added all the pieces to a white card base and sequins to embellish the card.

Here is the list of the participating blogs.
