Hello D2BA fans! I have some crafty inspiration for you today and want to remind you to check back THIS SUNDAY May 6th for the new D2BA monthly challenge! Remember there are goodies to be had, someone is going to win!

I had fun coloring up flowers from the Shine set today!

I stamped and then pulled several yellow and yellow green Copics from my stash to color up the images:

Next a lot of detailed fussy cutting and putting the flowers together with beautiful coordinating D2BA papers from the Honey Blooms collection on a card:

Here is a closer look at those lovely flowers:

Welcome Stamp AnnieThing fans I am beyond thrilled and honored to be joining the StampAnnie Thing family and be participating in the May release!

There are 3 new stamps coming your way over the next 3 days as well as a stencil, and die cut! You will love them all, they get me in the mood for summer!

Today our first stamp is Stephen – Reely Awesome this adorable stamp is perfect for Father’s Day, Birthdays and celebrating the men in your life in general. Here is a peek at what I created;

I stamped the image and the sentiment to Copic Sketch book paper with a Dare 2B Artzy Tuxedo Black ink pad:

Next I gathered my Copics, there are a lot of blues and browns in this bag 🙂

Hee is a closer look at Stephen’s face:

And I added the image to a card and I am kind of excited how it turned out (I am particularly proud of the water ?)

Welcome Dare 2B Artzy fans! Michelle Houghton here with a dose of D2BA inspiration! 

I went bold for my cards today! I used the Trellis die and cut several colors of cardstock, then created a couple different inky backgrounds and laid the trellis on top, as simple as that!

Here is a closer look at one of the inky backgrounds, I used Yupo paper and my Copic Various Ink refills:

Here are the two cards I finished and I have more background and Trellis’ to create more!

I love the peek of pattern and the striking nature of the die cut. I can see a whole slew of uses for this background die!

Here is a direct link to the beautiful Trellis Background Die

 

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Hello Dare 2B Artzy fans!  I am super ready for summer! With temperatures still starting the day at 14 “feels like 1” I am more then ready!

Before I share my latest creation make sure to check out this month’s D2BA challenge working with pastel colors. Remember there is an opportunity for a prize!

Today I have a fun card to share! I used the beautiful stamp set, April Showers. I started with my Copic markers:

And I got my image all colored up!

A couple of spots to take a closer look at, the puddle at her feet. I used the Colorless Blender blues and greens to help the look of wet ground:

Or the sky with subtle clouds crated with the Colorless Blender:

Lastly I wanted the umbrella to look clear so I used a lot of colorless blender and hints of the hair colors and sky to suggest the transparency:

Once done I used a beautiful patterned paper from D2BA to back a simple card featuring the image:

When you have a few extra minutes I have a new video up over at the Copic In The Craft Room on YouTube featuring a card I created on the D2BA last month.

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
