Cards from the TJNL Swap...

For each issue of the TJNL, we have a swap -- and the cards are fabulous! (The gallery of swaps is here.) I almost always make a card for everyone in the swap. Well, that is not really true -- I usually make three cards or more, and each uses a technique from the NEXT issue, so everyone gets a sneak preview. I love doing these swaps (oh heck, I just like swapping in general). It is hard sometimes, though, since the swaps get 35 people or so each time -- and time is always an issue for me. I give these cards a high priority -- I am committed to making those cards each time!!!

Two of the cards I made for the August swap are here. The one on the right uses the Marker Wash Technique -- these Close To My Heart stamps are perfect with the technique.
The second card (on the left) uses the Cuttlebug Smoosh Technique -- something I have done in the past two posts. Are you sick of it yet? I'm not!

That card uses all Stampin' Up! stamps.

Now for some exciting news...


October marks the 5th year anniversary of the Technique Junkie Newsletter -- and I will be having a GIVE-AWAY-A-DAY every day during October! Watch my blog, my website and the Technique Junkie Newsletter e-groups for details. I have approximately $750.00 in stamps, gift certificates and merchandise from various vendors to give away! Join in the fun -- it all starts tomorrow!
