Try That Technique Thursday

I was late in getting this week's challenge posted.......due to matters of life interfering with my crafting.  Seriously, we had friends visiting and between friends, physical therapy and Dr appts, I just didn't get the card done in time. 

The challenge technique was the Twinkling Watercolor tech from the June 08 newsletter.  If you aren't a member of Technique Junkies, you can check this website for details in joining - it's well worth the few $$ it cost per year.

My card was made using all stamps and papers from Club Scrap, as I also entered it in our PSL card challenge for the week.  I hope you enjoy
Beth Norman and I have been challenging each other to this techniques for many months.  I hope you check out her entry.   If you are a member of Technique Junkies, please send in your entry to Techniquejunkies@yahoogroups.com email addy.

Thanks and I will look forward to seeing you the next time around

Try That Technique thursday

This week, Beth Norman and I challenged each other and the other TJ members to do a card using the Penciled Twinks technique from the Feb 08 newsletter.

I used a stamp and papers from ClubScrap - it's really hard to see the shimmer from the twinks in this scan, but in real life it's very pretty.
Would love to see what you can do with this Technique and if you aren't a member of Technique Junkies check out http://patstamps.com/ and it's easy to join.


Don't forget to check out Beth's Blog to see the amazing artwork she did with this.


I have been under the weather the last 2 weeks with pneumonia and am just now getting back into doing any crafting.  I will be adding some cards in the next few days that I've done for our Club Scrap PSL challenge

Thanks for stopping by
