Here is a really easy card I created using the Sunset Sentiments #SS155 from the Technique Junkies June 2022 release.
I started with a piece of Bristol Smooth white cardstock and created a mask using a sticky circle and a piece of Mint tape and ink blended the sunrise using Distress Oxides. I then flipped my mint tape and colored the sand. All that was left to do was stamp on the sentiment and add the embellishments!

For this little tag book with “see-through” windows, I used Art Stacks’ Lorraine Haight Moraine BackStack and Altered Ancestors packs. The tags are all double sided and three of them have space for journaling.
Here’s how I made my project . . .
First I used a tag die from my stash to cut the tags in a uniform size. Two of the tags were cut from acetate, and the other six were cut using paper from the Lorraine Haight Moraine BackStack. I used alcohol inks and added a little foil to the acetate tags! I punched different sized circles from various papers from Lorraine Haight Moraine BackStack and fussy cut figures from the Altered Ancestors pack and adhered them to my tags. I stamped all of the words for my tags with alphabet stamps.
I cut strips of paper, scored them down the middle, and glued them to the paper tags making a hinge. Next, I used special (Fabri-tac) glue to adhere the other sides of the hinges to the acetate tags to make a 5-page, accordion tag book. I reinforced the hinges with washi tape and created paper “reinforcers” with the Lorraine Haight Moraine BackStack papers. Finally, I added glitter glue, various ribbon, fabric and lace to my tags.
You can't get any simpler making this card using the Big Wave #S970 from the Technique Junkies June 2022 release and the sentiment stamp Feel Most Alive #SDX194 release last July.
I stamped the wave using Versafine Clair in the color Twilight then embossed with clear embossing powder. I laid down the mask I made from the stamp and then simply used my Pan pastels to color the sky and then the water. I shimmered up the water using a Nuvo Aqua Shimmer in "Glitter Gloss."
I embossed the sentiment using Versamark ink and white embossing powder and hand drew in the seagulls after cutting the panel out with a die from my stash and gluing it down to a white card base.

Today I bring you my homage to the USA with these two Technique Junkies stamps from the June 2022 release entitled Statue of Liberty #S972 and God Bless the USA #SDX216. I have also included the A Colorful Life Designs stencil Rays.
I stamped the image with Versafine Clair in the color Twilight on white cardstock and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I then used a blending brush and some Antique Linen Distress Ink to deepen/age the background.
Next, I Masked off the image and stenciled in the rays with Catherine Pooler ink in the color Cranberry Fizz. I trimmed the paper down using my Deckle Trimmer and then aged it even more with some Vintage Photo Distress ink.
Next I splattered some plain water onto the image with a fan brush then mixed some Catherine Pooler Dress Blues with some water on my mat and splattered some blue.
I created the sentiment on a separate scrap with the Twilight ink and clear embossing powder then colored in the bottom half of the letters with the Cranberry Fizz.
I measured out some bakers twine to wrap 4 times around the card and secured it in the back with some washi tape. I then rubbed some Antique Linen Distress Ink onto the twine to age it as well.
I popped the panel up on some Kraft cardstock then popped the sentiment up on top of the twine!
Below is the process video where I made the same but even grungier!
