Find My Soul...Technique Junkies June 2020 Blog Hop!

Hello!
I have two posts today, so if you are looking the post for 2 Crafty Critter Crazies, scroll around until you find it!


Happy June release day!

We have some awesome new stamps in the Technique Junkies line, and we are eager to share them with you today!

Be sure to check out the hop list below for some sweet inspiration from our Design Team...

All of the June 2020 New Release stamps are 15% off through June 8th! We can all use a little bargain, right? No codes needed, just put them in your shopping cart and the discount will be applied at checkout.

You can also use my discount code on any purchase from Technique Junkies, anytime. You can even use it along with the discount above!


Today, I am showcasing three new stamps, 'Coral Sea Turtle', 'Find my Soul', and 'Bubble Flow'.  I also used 'A Colorful Life' 6" x 9' Stencil, 'Currents', for the background. 

I thought it would be fun to create an easel type card, and use the 'Coral Sea Turtle' to hold up the card front.  The image is colored with Copic Markers and a white gel pen.





My next card uses the sweet stamps from 'Oceans of Love'. This set has NINE great stamps - 4 images, and 5 sentiments. I inked up the background, giving a bit of 'rays' coming down from the right top corner. Spritzed some water on the background, and got busy with the Narwhals! These were colored with Copic markers, as were the sea plants, then fussy cut, and attached to the card. A little bit of white gel pen, and a sentiment finished things up nicely. Aren't they just too cute?



Hope these pretty cards brings you some inspiration!
Now, let's Hop!!!

Pretty pretty - love the ocean critters - and all done in blues. Love monochromatic stamps. Then up to the turtle - very cute and love the sentiment, oh how we wouldn't love to go to the beach - but....

I love both cards. Love the sentiment and the turtle and the sweet little whale. Our daughter has her living room done in all beach themed colors and objects from the sea, it is so pretty. These two cards are gorgeous. Love them!

How I wish I could go sit by the ocean and escape the unrest and pandemic restrictions in Minneapolis! Your cards made me feel a bit more peaceful, just to look at them. Thank you for that.
