Technique Junkie November New Release Blog Hop

 


 I am "guest designing" for Technique Junkie for the Month of  November.  We have some amazing releases for November and I am happy to share them with you today.

All of the November 2020 release stamps  and 2 new stencils are 15% through November 8, 2020 no code needed, just put the stamps  in your cart and the 15% discount will be applied at checkout.  

I am sharing a few of the cards I made using stamps from this latest release. 

 My first card uses Birch Tree Border plus the cloud edger stencil

/ I used distress oxide inks and the cloud edger stencil to give the vision of an early evening sunset sky, on a snowy evening.  I also used a moose punch to the scene walking on glittered hills of snow.  


My next card uses Love-Laughter-and Coffee  plus a full A2 size stamp
Coffee Stain 
  I had a scrap piece of design paper with coffee cups that I thought went very nicely with this sentiment/stamp.  I also cut out two coffee cups plus used three brown hearts to finish this card off.
My next card uses Birch Tree Border, Woodland Wonders
I fussy cut the bird and 2 little deer from the woodland wonders and for the sentiment I thought Respect sentiment went perfect with this scene all stamped in monotone browns.  

For my last card to show case on this hop I used Butterfly Flight Stencil using a light blue oxide ink , then I singled out one butterfly and made it just a bit darker blue so that the sentiment from Acceptance -respect-peace set of 5  would convey my feelings.  As you can see in the sentiment I made the PEACE the same shade of blue as I did the darker butterfly.  The corner punch I have had forever so I decided to dust it off and use it for this card.  

Below you will find our blog hop list from our talented Technique Junkies designers.  So sit back with your cup of coffee or tea and enjoy looking at all the new ideas.

Big Brother


I usually try and send a "special" card to big brother or big sister especially when this is a first addition for them. I made the brother card to coordinate with the gift card I made for the new baby which will also be a boy. I have a sticker boook and stickers to include in big brothers envelope to make him feel special too. I took a copic marker class this past weekend so I am having so much fun playing with colors and trying to blend my colors. I think this goes back to my childhood as I loved to color as a kid, especially with a new box of crayolas. The class was very helpful and of course I had to "pick up" a few more colors after the class.

Faux Felt

This card was done for an upcoming swap I am hosting, favorite or new technique. This technique was in the most recent Technique Junkie (which is published bi-monthly and well worth the investment). The cardstock is run through the crimper several times at different angles and then carefully separated into two useable sheets. The feel is a soft texture as in felt.
