Mini Album Mania Blog Hop!


Welcome to the last stop on the Mini Album Mania Blog Hop. If this is where you started, please take a moment to go to the Design Team Blog and start at the beginning. If you arrived here from Allie's blog, you have arrived at the final stop!

All of the participants in this hop created albums using tutorials from the Mini Album Mania CD. The CD contains 35 Mini Album tutorials in pdf format, created to print on 8-1/2"x 11" paper. The ideas are wonderfully creative and come in all shapes and sizes!  You can order your CD right here:
The album I am showing you today is the Gatefold Accordion Album. This neat album does not need any sort of binding tool -- you create your own! The pages fold into one another, creating a gorgeous flap-type effect. Here are some more views for you (click on any of these images to see them close up).

A Shopping Spree for YOU!

Who doesn't love a shopping spree? I know I do! And today's giveaway is for a $20.00 gift certificate from The Paper Temptress!Our card today was made using the Twinkled Stencils Technique (from the June 2009 Technique Junkie Newsletter). The Mermaid and Flora (from Rubber Stamp Plantation) were colored with Copics, and I added little sticker and crystal details to her hair, armband, and ring. I popped this on a piece of Gold Metallic Paper (from The Paper Temptress, of course!). The Twinkled Stencil background is also layered on this luxurious paper! I took a closer picture from the side so that you can see the paper and details better.

One Lucky winner today will be awarded a $20.00 gift certificate (along with the card above) to spend at will from the Paper Temptress website. There are so many wonderful papers to choose from!
To enter this giveaway, leave me a comment and let me know which paper from The Paper Temptress site is your favorite, or which you would like to try. Comments should be left on this blog by midnight Sunday July 5th. Make sure that you leave enough information so that I can contact you to let you know you won. Just a reminder that Blogger does NOT leave me your email address. A great way to do this is to leave your email address in a spelled-out way, such as "p huntoon at optonline dot net." I will use my handy random number generator to pick the winning entry. You do NOT need to be a TJ subscriber to win. Good Luck!

congratulations to Nelda D, the winner of this gift certificate and card!

It's a Technique Blitz!

Ready -- Set -- Go!

Today is the first day of the first-ever "Patstamps Technique Blitz!"

What is that, you ask?

It is a card a day between today and August 31st. Each card will showcase a different technique from either the August 2008 issue of the Newsletter OR one of the Bonus Techniques from the New CD6 that is available for pre-order now.

So sit back, enjoy the art, and tell me what you like!

Our first card is from the August Newsletter -- it uses the Painted Pigment Technique with the Stencilled Collage Technique. The stamps and stencil are from Rubber Stamp Plantation.

The TJ designers will be joining us in the blitz when they can, and I will be posting links to their sites here. Note that I am away, without internet access, so they will be posted if I can find a Starbucks with WiFi in Canada! : )

It's a fitting card for today -- after all, I am away on vacation!. Hope your week is pure paradise! Enjoy the art...

It has been a few weeks since I have been able to participate in Blogger's Challenge, so I am really excited to play this week!

The theme this week was insects & bugs, and I took the easy way out with a butterfly image. This beautiful insect and the paradise stamp are from Rubber Stamp Plantation. The background of this card uses the Faux Handmade Paper Technique for the background -- I ran it through my Cuttlebug, put white ink on the embossed parts, then swiped Pearl Ex over it to make it shimmery : ) The butterflies where made using the Metallic Foil technique. Both of these techniques are from the current issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter.

Sometimes you get lucky in life. My friend Erin had a stamping playdate a few weeks ago and invited me, and her friend Debra from Hawaii. Well, it just so happens that Debra is the co-owner of RSP...and she is, by far, the most interesting person I have met in years. She and I hit it off and chatted for hours!!! She was also generous with her stamps and you will see more of them here, and on the TJ site. They are a little slice of paradise... If you would like to see some gorgeous pictures and have a few minutes, go take a look at the RSP Blog, too -- read about the Vetiver farm and stamping there, too.

When you have a moment, check out the beautiful creations from the other Blogger's Challenge players. Simply click on the logo on my sidebar to access an up-to-date list of the other players.

Have a beautiful weekend!
