Hello friends! I have a little Dare 2B Artzy inspiration as you twiddle creative fingers safely at home. I have a fun new thing for you to try to!
I colored up two manatees friends and then had some fun creating my own bubbles to match.
First here is a closer look at the coloring:
I used my Copics of course and if you would like to see this portion in action I recorded it and will have it up on the D2BA YouTube channel tomorrow! I matched them up with some perfect Dare 2B Artzy papers then decided they needed bubbles. Problem! I have packed all my acrylic dots for my move to Alaska and now I am wanting them. Instead of digging through a few dozen moving boxes marked “craft supplies” you know the ones I thought I could do without for a few months I decided to make my own!
It actually is pretty easy and I did have this out of my boxes 😉
I used Nuvo drops in white and created drops on parchment paper. They pop right off when they are dry and I can attach them anywhere with a small glue dot or a favorite adhesive. The best part…drumroll please.
I can turn them into any color I like, matching them to any project by coloring them with my Copics. Now on the larger drops you can see some inconsistency or streaking in the color. If I really was bothered by this I can air brush the drops and the color will be nice and even. But small things like this just don’t get to me and so I just happily colored away!
My new “acrylic dots” tucked onto my card for bubbles and I added a sentiment banner and my two manatees friends are ready to shellabrate.
Tomorrow I will have the video of the coloring portion of the crad if you would like to see the process. I am showing coloring both dark to light and light to dark on the manatees so if you are curious about the difference and the process it might give you a little insight!
