Technique Junkies AUGUST New Releases Blog Hop

Today marks the first day of August and a set of new stamp releases from Technique Junkies! The Technique Junkie Design Team has put together a blog hop showcasing all of the new designs for August. Among the August releases are two new designs in my Palettini line of stamps:

And here are two cards that I made using these stamps.

For this card, I inked up the hair portions using Gelatos. I applied several colors directly to the stamp and then spritzed the stamp lightly with water in order to activate the color and release it from the stamp. Then I made sure that the other portions of the features were dry. I inked these using Memento Luxe in Tuxedo Black.

Once stamped, I colored the face with Copic Markers.

A flower embellishment was added to her hair.

For this card, I stamped the image portion of her headdress onto patterned paper using Memento Luxe in Espresso Brown and cut it out.

I stamped the face on plain cardstock using Memento Luxe in Espresso Brown as well, and cut it out. Once the headdress was layered on top with adhesive, I colored her face using Copic Markers.

The backdrop was created using Art Anthology Colorations sprays. Once dry, I splattered Gesso onto the surface randomly.

The sentiment is SD435 Beautiful and Brilliant.

I hope you enjoyed these stamples using the newest Palettini releases from Technique Junkies!
