Tuesday Trigger

Tanis — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 01:04:27 +0000

It’s been AGES since I’ve played along with the Tuesday Trigger! What a fun thing to have a little creative time to play. Finally!

Here’s the trigger for this week:

And here`s my interpretation – inspired by the colours of those gorgeous blossoms. I used Fabulous by Ali Edwards and Talking in Circles (retiring, but still available if you want to snag it!), both by Technique Tuesday.

Thanks for coming by!

2 days late & 2 bucks short….

But the results are here

I used a “pick a name out of the hat” program (google “the hat” and you can download it for yourself) and here’s the resulting pick.

So yay Lillian! Email me with your mailing address and I’ll get that out to you very soon!

THANKS everyone for playing! Stay tuned for another TT giveaway in the near future!

Happy New Year Giveaway

What better way to start 2012 than a new stamp to play with!

I totally forgot I had already ordered this background from Technique Tuesday and I ordered myself a double. My mistake, your gain

Here’s a card I made this afternoon using this background, as well as the Fabulous and Favourite Memories sets.

If you would like Alphabet Soup for your very own, all you have to do is leave me a comment. Share on facebook, comment that you did so, and I’ll give you a bonus entry. I’ll ship this one anywhere. You have until January 9th to enter. Good luck

Retirement Sale

Tanis — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 23:33:36 +0000

I always get nervous when I see companies retire their stamp sets. I’m always hoping that my favourites won’t go away and I can continue using those gems for publishing projects. But it’s inevitable, I suppose!

There is the GOOD that comes with retiring images too…..like Technique Tuesday’s deals on their retiring products!

Check out THIS PAGE - it will show you all the retiring sets (get them while you can!) AND if you scroll down to the bottom, there’s a bit of “fine print” where you can find out how to get a GREAT DEAL on these retiring sets until January 15th.

Anyhoo, here’s a card that I made with a couple of sets that are retiring…..Fleurs (BOOHOO!) and Talking in Circles.

Tanis — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 01:49:15 +0000

Back to share a little bit of playing I did with some of my new Christmas Stamps.
Here I’ve used Harlequin Harmony and Celebrate the Season from Technique Tuesday.

Card of the Month……

Tanis — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 02:29:07 +0000

Yah, my post title just about says it all.

SO sorry I’ve been so absent.

Here’s a card. I’m so excited cause I just ordered the Fleur set from Technique Tuesday…..so even though this card uses the flowers from Mama=Love, the Fleur set has even MORE flowers that are in the exact same style. Which I LOVE. So I can’t wait to get that sweet set.

Speaking of my recent Technique Tuesday order, I made a little oops……and ordered something that I already have! SOOO, you might want to stay tuned cause I’ll be making that oops into a freebie for one of YOU! Just for hanging in there and sticking around while I get used to my new life

Anyhoo, here’s the card. Thanks for coming by. I appreciate your popping in more than you’ll ever know

♥, me.

Hello!

Welcome to October’s Technique Tuesday Stamping Tech Blog Hop!

It’s the time of year to give thanks to the important people in our lives. So this month, the Stamping Techs want to share with you some fabulous thank you cards.

Here’s my thank you card

I used Loving Words, Talking in Circles and Chit Chat to create this one. I die cut the hearts from a square Technique Tile and coloured and stamped them using TT’s Watercolor Crayons. Then I outlined the focal point of the card with a fine tipped black marker.
