Wow :shock: was I doing the happy dance on the way back from the mailbox today!!! The newest copy of the TJN arrived today!! Whoo Whoo!! I am going to try and sneak away to my room and stamp this weekend!!
Here are the techniques included this time:
Abstract Emobssing
Reflected Acetate
Modern Art Backgrounds
Glitter Ridge ((by our own SCS JanTink!!!))
Custom Color Ink Pads
Pearl Ex Tags
Geometric Background
Geometric Overstamping
Magic Maduzia
Polished Vellum
Pearly Pastels
As always, I am looking forward to seeing all of the creative minds here on SCS post their creations using these techniques!!
For those of you who are interested in learing more about the newsletter, please visit www.patstamps.com. I learned about her newsletter here on SCS and have loved each and every newsletter I have gotten ((I even ordered the back editions too!!))
I am telling you.... EVERY TIME you talk about this newsletter I feel the need to go out and spend more $$$$ (I don't have the nerwsletter yet)
It would sure be AWSOME if there was a way to get a free trial membership, that way I could feel better about spending the last of the grocery money on something I HAVE to have... at least I would have gotten something for free from the company... now I have to pay... right?? that is how it works? RIGHT!!!
It looks great this month - and I have most of materials I need! woohoo!
BTW - this is just my second newsletter. I was afraid I wouldn't use it so I just went with the 3 month trial membership($9). I figured that wasn't too much to commit while I figured out if I was going to do any of the techniques,
YYYeesssssss! I got mine yesterday! When I saw some cards posted this week with a new technique from the April newsletter I started to panic that mine had gotten lost enroute, but I e-mailed Pat yesterday morning, and she quickly replied that they went in the mail on Wednesday, and then it came in yesterday's mail!!!! So...if you haven't gotten yours yet, it will arrive soon. Can't wait to try out Jan Tink's Glitter Ridge technique, as well as the geometrics. I can honestly say that I always look forward with anticipation to the next issue - this was well worth the investment!!! Linda

Ok, I'll confess. I have every issue plus the cd's and have hardly tried any of them, but I would still NEVER quit being a Technique Junkie! It is worth it, it is worth it!!
My problem is that I hate to drag all my toys that I need to the kitchen to play with since I don't have my own stamp area- YET! I've done maybe one from each issue.
I just walked to my mailbox (on my front porch - he! he!) and found my TJN. It is so fabulous. This is only my second month getting it, but the ideas in it are fantastic. These artists that come up with these ideas are totally AWESOME!!!! When I grow up. . . I want to be just like them. :lol:

Do you find time to try these?
I am so tempted to subscribe!!
Yes, I "make the time" to try them. I love the on-line tutorials too--it shows pictures step-by-step (I am the visual kind!) I also think they are beneficial because I will demo some of them for my stamping customers and they are in awe too!! They are sooo much fun!
There is also an on-line gallery that displays cards made with each different technique!
