Noses are red

 Hi there! I have a pretty, glossy winter card to share with you today. 

This card uses Technique Junkies 'S885 Skating' and 'SS130 Inside Out: I Love Snow' (set of TEN!!!)

I had some trouble with photographing this one. I wanted the shine to show, but then, there was this annoying glare, so it is what it is - you just have to trust me!  The stamping was done with Versamark and heat embossed with Speckled Egg Embossing Glaze. It's SO pretty in real life!

The inside sentiment says: "I'm tired of winter, how 'bout you"?  So cute! Love these sentiments!


Technique Junkies stamps make such beautiful cards!

Don't forget that you will get 10% off any purchase by using my code, TJ10Patti. 

Be sure to head over to the Technique Junkies store and check out their incredible stamps!

Some Valentine Fun

 Hi there!

Just a little fun with Valentines to share with you today!

These were all computer generated sentiments, and a little of this and that!

Love me some googly eyes!

Gotta love a fun heart shaped punch! (and googly eyes!)

Fun for your favorite medical person!

These are so shiny! Used LOTS of Glossy Accents!

What fun! Used an old Great Impressions stamp set on this one.

This one uses some sweet little deer dies. Miss our deer, since we moved into town!

That is all I have for today!

Have a great day,
Patti J.

Calorie Refund

Hi there! 

It's my day to post on the Technique Junkies Design blog, and I'd like to share two fun cards that I created, with some new release products!  

My first card uses 'SD1065 Calorie Refund' and 'S890 Whimsical Coffee Background'. I couldn't get a good photo of this, even with my OTT light, but the background is stampd with brown ink, on kraft cardstock, and there are several places that I've colored in with a red marker. Perhaps clicking on it to enlarge it may show the coloring. The sentiment was stamped in black ink, and highlighted in gray Copic marker. The 'calorie items' were colored with Copic Markers and some glossy accents were added for yummy shine. Again, the photo doesn't show how yummy these look. Some days are just like that, right???


Here's another fun card. This focal panel 'SD1070 It Takes a Village', was stamped with a wine colored ink. The 'glass' portions were colored with Copic markers, and covered with glossy accents for a look of real glass. The panel was then distressed with a touch of distress ink. The background is a piece of beautiful patterned paper. I already have a recipient in mind for this one!




Don't forget that the January 'Gotta Have it All' Bundle is $94.80. Normally, this would be $126.30 - what a great deal! Here's what you'll get:

So glad you stopped by today!

Valentine Wishes

 Hi there! I have a fun card to share with you today. 

This card uses Technique Junkies 'Valentine Wishes', and 'Valentine Heart Border' and just makes me smile - love the colorful pop of red and black on white, and what a sweet, whimsical sentiment!  

The sentiment was stamped in black and highlighted with a red Copic marker. The background was stamped a few times in red ink, and decorated with red stickles...gotta love sparkle, right? The sentiment was popped up with foam dots and adhered to background panel..

I think this turned out well! This will go to my hubby! I feel so lucky to have him. He had Covid, and became sick the end of November. It was apparently one of the more severe cases. There were a couple of days that I was hoping for the best, but thinking the worst. He's doing better each day, and since he basically missed Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's, I think he really deserves a pretty, sparkly card!


I love my Technique Junkies stamps!

Don't forget that you will get 10% off any purchase by using my code, TJ10Patti.

Wanna build a Snowman?

Hi there! 

It's my day to post on the Technique Junkies Design blog, and I'd like to share two fun cards that I created, with some new release products!  And don't forget - All of the January 2021 New Release stamps are 15% off through January 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.

My first card uses 2 new releases: 'SS130 Inside Out: I Love Snow Set of 10', and 'SDX177 Small Snowflake Trio, Set of 3', and an older image 'SD966 Snowman'.The image was stamped onto white cardstock, and colored with Copic Markers. The snowflakes were then stamped using some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink. To finish this card front, a dot of Glossy Accents was added to each snowflake center, and to the eyes, nose, mouth, buttons and pom pom on hat. The panel was trimmed, and adhered to a blue card base. 


The inside of the card cracks me up - I love this fun sentiment set!!!

Here's another fun winter card. This image is: 'SD1040 Snow Somewhere Else', and was colored with Copic Markers and fussy cut. I used some Distress Oxide Inks, 'Ink Blending Brushes', a spritz of 'Shimmering Bliss Chestnut Mare', a few drops of water, and a couple of fun die cuts to complete this card. 


The January 'Gotta Have it All' Bundle is $94.80. Normally, this would be $126.30 - what a great deal! Here's what you'll get:

Pick of the Week at The House that Stamps Built

  Hi everyone!

It's my turn to once again share a Pick of the Week at The House that Stamps BuiltThe Repeat Impressions Stamps that I picked to showcase are:


This is not a fancy card - it was made to share a tip with you!  If you've never checked out the Cancer category at the Repeat Impressions Store, please do - there are some very nice stamps in there!


This post is a bit different 'for me'. I usually have to warn you about photo overload, but this post? Only two photos!  I'm sharing a tip that I use on nearly every card I make. I have kept this hanging above my work area for as long as I've been stamping. It's a cheat sheet for layering measurments. This has saved me SO much time over the years!


Hope you like this - Give it a try!

 For this week only (January 4 - January 10th), get 20% off the stamps used in my creation above when you use the coupon code POTW1421.

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs and blessings,
Patti J.
