Sunshine Day! Stamp AnnieThing

Hello family and friends! Ready for a little hump day inspiration? Here in Iowa we are up to our eyeballs in snow, ice and cold. So I am ready for a little, or maybe A LOT of sunshine. So since the weather is not cooperating I will just have to create a little of my own. 

I stamped up Victoria – Here’s The Dirt and colored her up with my Copic markers

Colors Used: Skin – YR000, YR01, E11, R21, BV20 Tongue – R21, E04 Hair – C9, C7, C5, BV20 Boots – Y32, Y38 Dress – B91, B95, RV52, Y32 Shirt – Y40, G43

Then I fussy cut her out and got her onto a card front

I used the the Shaker Basic Die set #1 and an assortment from the SAT adornments to create the sparkling sunshine. 

Just looking at her makes me think of sunshiny days ahead. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Hoping you have a few crafty and sunshiny days in your near future!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

As High As I Can Reach D2BA and Copic

Hello Friends and Family! Happy Monday to you I am starting my week with a little D2BA inspiration.

Hopefully you were able to participate in the new product hop this past weekend and see wonderful projects created with all the new products by Dare 2B Artzy that will be ready to ship in the next week or so! And I am crossing my fingers that you have had a little crafty time this month and have been able to participate in this months challenge “love”. Super easy to create a card, page or crafting project and enter a photo for your chance to win some D2BA goodies!

On to the inspiration! I created a sweet card with the new “Stand Tall” stamp set:

I used my Copic markers to color the image after stamping 3 stamps from the set, the mama (or daddy), baby and the sentiment. I decided, after coloring the giraffes with colors that I felt like were at least similar to the real animal, that I wanted to create a background as well but did not want a crisp horizon or just faded halo. I settled on a grass look but softer. The colors I used are: Giraffe (base) – YR20, YR21, YR23 (ears) E93 (spots) E44, E47 Background BG70, BG72, Colorless Blender. I did add a little opaque white on the eyes as well to pop the highlight a bit.

Thank you as always for stopping by! I hope you have had a chance to see the full Dare 2B Artzy release I truly love every bit of the new product!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Pretty In Pink!

Heloooo friends and family. This week on Stamp AnnieThing we are going PINK! Our theme for this month’s challenge is Think Pink. I decided to go a little different and focus on other products from Stamp AnnieThing that I could go pink with versus coloring, yeah I know weird right?!

SO I pulled out a bunch of pink and heart centered products to play with. I used a heart stencil with some glitter paste.

I found the heart dies that create individual hearts and pretty borders too.

The silver cardstock I used is from this month’s Grab and Go box!

Then I cut a window in my card front and added some sparkle from this month’s Grab and Go as well!

The “hugs” is a die cut from SAT and the textured silver cardstock is again from the Grab and Go.

All together a Pretty In Pink card covered in SAT goodness!

Thanks for stopping by today! Make sure to check in daily for some Stamp AnnieThing inspiration!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Day 3 Stamp AnnieThing February Release


Happy February!!!

Day three consists of our latest stamp, Maggie- Get Well Soon!!
We hope you enjoyed our February release!
`~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I had fun with Maggie too! I colored her up with Copics then used the speech bubble dies from yesterdays reveal and sentiments from today and yesterday.

There are too many Colors on this one to get them all in one fist so here is the skin and hair (I got a little silly on the hair, but I LOVE how it turned out) Skin – YR000, YR01, E93, E04, E33 (freckles) Hair – YR31, Y21, YR14, YR24, E23
Nothing like a little two fisted coloring ? Shirt – BG70, BG72, BG75 Pants – C5, C9 Shoe – C1, C3 Cast W1, E42, Colorless Blender, Chair – C1, C3, B63, B66, B97
I added a background instead of trying to cut around and through all those details and then added her to a simple card base with the speech bubbles.

Thanks so much for joining me this week for the Stamp AnnieThing February release! Have a fabulous weekend and stop by the shop to pick out your favorites from this month!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
