Blog Hop-Artistic Effects CD- NEW from the Technique Junkies

Thanks for joining the TJ Design Team BLOG HOP celebration for our brand new TJ Newsletter technique CD 'Artistic Effects'.  We are so excited to be able to showcase the new techniques on this CD for you.

The CD contains 24 brand new tutorials plus 16 techniques from the TJ archives.  The CD contains 40 tutorials using Gelatos, Goosebumps, Irresistible Sprays, Distress Stains and Gesso -- so many fun mediums to give your projects the artistic touch.  All 40 tutorials are in step-by-step pdf format - compatible for Macs and PCs alike.  All the tutorials are printable to 8-1/2” x 11” paper.

HERE is a link to the pictures of the techniques on the CD

Now here is how you get your own!!! 

The cost of the CD is 14.95.  Get your copy by following THIS link. 

You should have arrived here from Holly's blog

 I have made a card using the Faux Metal Gelato's technique:
 I took the picture at a little bit of an angle so you could see the glimmer from the Gelato's and from the Sakura Gelly Roll pen on the cake.  All images from TJ Sponsor Mark's Finest Papers.
 *I would like to enter this card in the Simple Salutations challenge for this week at Mark's Finest Papers.*

Next, I used the Whitewash Chic technique:

 I colored the flowers with Prismacolor pencils- I did not do any blending at all. The butterflies are colored with Copic markers, as are the Rhinestones I added. I added shimmer with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen on the butterflies. All images are from Technique Junkies/formerly Stamp Camp.

 Thanks so much for stopping by to see me and participating in our HOP.  Don't forget to stop by and see the amazing projects that Pat has created for your enjoyment.

In case you get lost, here is a list of all our wonderful designers.
