The Technique Junkies newsletter is a HUGE source of inspiration for me. In our Yahoo group, we share inspiration by sharing cards and tips, and can choose to join a monthly 1-4-1 swap. This month my partner was Betty A. This is the card I sent Betty:
I used a Technique from the June/July newsletter called Spray Away- it is very shimmery IRL. The girl image is from an unmounted plate from Rare Image Rubber Stamps and the sentiment is from SU. I stamped the girl more than once and layered her on the background- she is colored with Copic markers. I dotted on some white gel pen for added accent.
Here is the card Betty Ackley sent to me:
The technique is called Color Sandwich- I love the image and the background folder combination, and Betty's play on color.
The Rare Image Rubber Stamps I used- well- I LOVE this sweet sheet of stamps, so I thought I'd offer one as candy. The owner is a Technique Junkie- Nancy Judd.
Here is a picture of the entire sheet of images:
If you would like a chance to win this sheet of stamps, just leave me a comment below. I will pull a winner Saturday August 6th.
If you want a second chance at the images, post the image on your sidebar and come back and leave a SEPARATE comment.
Please don't forget to leave me a way to contact you!
Thanks for stopping by! Shelly

Thanks for your visits and comments - you are a blessing! {{{hugs}}}
Both cards are very beautiful, but I'm a bit partial to the one you created because of the layered effect. I love how those turn out!
Thanks for sharing the great stamps also! I've just started stamping again after a long absence, so I'm new to the clear ones. They are so much better than the wooden stamps!
Great pictures! I love them!
Thank you for the giveaway!
The images are just delightful! :) and your technique fit your card perfectly...great giveaway!

Hi Shelly
I visit every day, however; I think this is my first time leaving a comment! I love the Gothic arches but were a bit intimidated by them. You have done a wonderful job with it and that image from McMahon is beautiful. I have not used any of their images in a while, I will need to start back as I hit slump. I have been creating but not posting, so I've got to do better!
Wow lovely!Im now a follower so i can learn and be inspired,thanks :)
