So today I finished the rest of the TLC Class 3 cards, that is marked off my to-do list as done – Yeah!!
Here is what everyone will be doing at the Technique Lovers Club (TLC) Class August 22 and August 23, seating is limited so let me know if you want to attend. I will show you the cards over the next 2 days closer up.
Make sure to sign up for my email newsletters by sending an email to: digibbs@stampingwithdi.com then you won't miss any classes, or any specials (just a little hint – I will be running a special while I am at convention, so don't miss out, and start making that wish list)
Now I have to work on my Artisan swap, and challenge, and then my swaps for convention.
This weekend will be a busy one, I am gonna go do some shopping with my buddy Sharon Saturday, gotta get some new duds. I wish I had a new bod to go with the duds, but I'll just have to dress the old one up.
I am also happy to tell you that Dawn asked me to be part of UStamp with Dawn & Friends for the fall session! I am so tickled to be asked again, it has been so much fun. How about this cute new banner?
Fun eh? The Fall UStamp will start September 4th and end October 1. So how would you like to win a FREE PASS? That's right Dawn has given me a free pass to give away, so down below in the comment section, please answer this: What is your favorite technique? (This has nothing to do with UStamp necessarily, it just will help me plan my upcoming classes as well as my blog tutorials) so make sure to answer below this post and I will pick a winner on Sunday August 2 at noon Arizona time. Cool eh?
Have a great Saturday, and thanks for stopping in!
It is hard to say because there are so many techniques that I like, I think all types of embossing are my favorite.
Watercoloring of any kind is definitely my favorite technique.
I don't know if you'd consider this a "technique" but I love to show die cuts or punches in a different way than it was intended… an out-of-the-box thing.
🙂 Dawn N
I would have to say embossing as well but if you're using this as what to show coming up…I would love to see more punch art. Thanks for the chance to win!
I love them all, but my favorite technique is Polished Stone! Thanks for the chance to win entry into the Fall UStamp!
Hugs!
How to pick…..I love everything. I do love using the textured impressions folders, and anything bigshot! Thanks for sharing!
I love watercoloring but if you want a specific technique I guess I like cracked glass.
My favourite technique is anything I can copy from my sister!!!!! Which lately has been the sepia technique. I really like that look.
Luv ya
Jax
I have trouble choosing one technique, but I'd have to say that I love paper piecing using the designer series papers (I'm a bit addicted to them!).
I luv the flower in your pocket…this card is way too cute!
Right now my favorite technique is the "Smackin' Acetate technique"! StampTV has a video (by Gina K) for it. I used SU markers on my clear block.
dry embossing is my favorite…it's puttsy but the results are stunning. If you are looking for ideas another favorite is the soot technique..I have a convention card using it…hope I run into you at convention and get to say hi…I love your blog!
Embossing is my fave! Love your pocket card–super cute! Love your blog and thanks for chance to win entry to UStamp!
Hey girl, how are ya? Great cards, as usual! My favorite technique is embossing…not too original but I love it. Thanks for the chance to win, and congrats on getting asked again to work with UStamp!
what a question Di! My fav technique???? hmmmmm…which one of a million….. ummmmm…..ok – I'll stick with water coloring! LOL love the cards …wish I were going to see you in SLC, but no can do…take care!
Reen
OH that card is very sweet 🙂 Hmmm What is my fav. tech. I would have to say paper piercing.. I look for any excuse so that I have to add it to my cards! lol
Hi Diana! I like both cards, but the second one's flower is definitely cuter! All your projects are wonderful!
My favorite technique….just one? um….I guess I really like paper piecing, especially after seeing some of the fab-o things you have done.
thanks for the chance to win!
Hugs,
Elizabeth
Hi Diana,
Congrats on being asked to do UStamp in the fall. You're so talented, they're lucky to have you!
My favorite technique is watercoloring (I'm no good at it–sigh) and ANYTHING with the big shot!
Ruth
Love the cracled glass finish technique.
Paper piecing is my fav 🙂 Congrats on your new affiliation!!
Thanks for the chance to win a freebie. . .
I love to water color. Since I saw you using the Sansodor and the stumps, I love it even more!! So beautiful!
My favorite technique is masking and of course anything to do with glitter.
Hi Diana!
My favorite technique…hmmm…I guess it would have to be water coloring with ink refills. I don't have enough talent to paint a picture from the start but this makes me feel like I do! Thanks for the chance to win!
Congratulations on another U Stamp, how exciting. I would have to say that my favorite technique would be anything grungy…. crumbling, sanding, tearing, roughing up the edges, inking edges, etc. And then on another day it may be coloring – either watercolor with in, or with the colored pencils. Then another day it may be…. But my favorite would be grungy right now.
Congrats!
A favorite technique is had to choose. I don't know if it is a technique, but I love, love, love using punches. I also like the soft look of watercoloring.
I love the flower on this card – so cute!! I love dry embossing and am so glad that SU has come up with the embossing folders for the Big Shot. Soooo much easier! Hopefully there will be more soon!
Diana, you have me forever in love with and completely hooked on using Sansodor! I find myself only interested in stamp sets that are open line for coloring and looking at sets with the thought, "Okay, so what could I do with this set and Sansodor?"! I have done a little bit of polished stone, so I am anxious to see how you use that in your technique class. Even more so how you use the rubber cement technique since the one time I "learned" the technique I honestly couldn't think of an application for using it. So wish I were going to convention, too. Can't wait to hear everyone's reports (even if I turn even more green with envy)!
Hugs,
Lorree
Hi Diana,
Just love your blog and ideas–keeep inspiring all of us–and especially love when you give blog candy away!!!
Yup – i like the one bigger flower. Although, i wonder if just adding some leaves would have helped your first card?
either way, CUTE!
Keep up the great work!
