Hi everyone!
Today I'm sharing a couple cards created using some products from Technique Tuesday.
One layer cards are not necessarily in my wheelhouse, but I enjoy making them from time to time. I love the simplicity you can achieve and I feel like they are often the most sophisticated looking cards I create.
For these cards I'm featuring both the Sweet Succulents and Perfect Picture stamp set (unfortunately this stamp set appears to be sold out right now).
For the first card, I first stamped the frame image in a light tan color (this was Crumb Cake from Stampin' Up). Then I created a mask for the frame itself by stamping the image on a large post it and cutting out the inside of the frame.
Once that was done, I placed the mask over the frame and stamped the succulent image in the same ink. Then I colored the succulents with Copics and added a sentiment from the Picture Perfect set.
I added subtle accents using C1 and C3 Copics - basically just adding a bit of color where shadows would be. This was really quick and easy, but I think it has a big impact.
The very kind and generous folks at Technique Tuesday are also sponsoring a giveaway. One lucky someone will win a stamp and coordinating die of their choice from Technique Tuesday. To be entered to win, simply be a blog follower and leave a comment with what you would choose if you won.
A winner will be announced on Monday. Good luck!
Love your clean and simple makes, Miriam.
ReplyDeleteSomehow I don't have many Technique Tuesday stamps, although I admire their greenhouse stamps and their punny sentiments. If I were to win, I would choose the new Chicken Family set. Love that it can be used for so many different occasions.
Pretty cards! Love the succulent designs!
ReplyDeleteI'd choose the Delightful Daisy stamp and die set!
I love Turtle Trio Crafting Dies!! Thank you!

and matching stamp set.

I don't own any succulent stamps and these ones look gorgeous, so would love to buy them with the matching dies. I don't own any of their stamps and just spent the last 10 mins looking at their products, talk about gorgeous. They have lots of beautiful floral stamps, especially love the rannunculas!!
ReplyDeleteI really like their design of the succulent stamp and you showcased it beautifully. I have a few of their 'pun' stamps but nothing of their florals. Thanks for the opportunity to win.
ReplyDeleteGreat designs with these succulents. I like the framing on the first one. I would pick the Chicken Family set.
ReplyDeleteAwesome job on all your cards they are adorable! I would love to win the Lily Wishes Stamp Set.
