Swing into Spring with Stamp AnnieThing and Copic

Hi friends, Copic fans and family! Sharing a little mid-week inspiration from Stamp AnnieThing in the form of a challenging Copic no-line image. I also want to encourage you to enter this month’s themed challenge over on the Stamp AnnieThing Facebook page.

This month’s theme is Twine. Did you know that SAT is now carrying twine? It has been showing up in our grab and go boxes and I am kinnda excited about it as I have ALWAYS loved a good piece of twine or fibers to finish off any crafty project.

I used the Lucille – Roarin’ Fun and aimed for a no-line coloring rendition with my Copic Markers.

Here is how she turned out!

Yo might like to see colse ups of the dress and a bit of the hair and feather as well, I am pretty pleased how those came out.

Then of course she needs to Lindy hop her way onto a card so I used papers and twines from the last Grab and Go box, the glitter and mirror cardstock as well as the silver twine are just perfect. I also used the “fantastic” die cut. The only thing I added from my old stash is the fringy red twine, I just could not resist!

 It was hard to show the metallic silver cardstock and the shimmering white glitter cardstock without me getting reflected in the image, but trust me she is shinning!

Thank you so much for stopping by today, make sure to continue watching all the fun uses for twine this week and then get your entry in the album over on our FB page!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Stamp AnnieThing May Release Day#3

I can give all sorts of excuses why this did not get to you on the day it was supposed to but basically it is just plain late!

Last Friday was the third and final day of the Stamp AnnieThing peeks for the May release. And I did not share my card! And it is my favorite! So I am swinging back around and getting it done.

This cool character is colored up once again with only Copic Earth tones and this time in a no-line fashion. And I am pretty excited with how he turned out.
Here’s the close up shot so you can take a closer look at how the coloring is working.

Thanks for stopping by and sorry again for my tardiness! Hope you are having a spectacular start to your week!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!

Anchors Away!

Hello friends and family. I am bringing you a little Monday morning inspiration from Dare 2B Artzy.

Before I share my card make sure you take the time to participate in this month’s challenge for a chance at a D2BA prize. We are looking for flowers this month!

For my card this Monday morning I am sharing stamps from the new Seas The Day collection and specifically from the Anchors Away and Ocean Waves stamp sets.

I stamped the little sailboat first and then covered or “masked” over it and then stamped the ocean waves and sentiment. I colored the image up with my Copic Markers and finished by fussy cutting around the waves and thrumming around the sky.

Here is a close up of my little boat!

Thank you so much for stopping by today, make sure to come back each day for now D2BA inspiration and stop by the store to enjoy all that fun craftyness!

May Challenge at Dare 2B Artzy

Hello D2BA Fans! I have been in Portland, Oregon teaching Copics all weekend and I am getting to this post a little late and you will laugh because the card I created for the May challenge is a little “late” as well! This month the challenge is Flowers.

Here is the card I created!

I used my Copic Markers on the flower basket and attempted a pansy look. Then I took a D2BA patterned paper and used both sides, weaving it together to create a fun “basket like” background.
Here is a close up of the image. Now I am aware that Easter has come and gone BUT! You could color up a beautiful basket of flowers for your mother, just add a different sentiment.

Hope you will have a little creative time this month to play along and get your name in the hat for a D2BA prize!

Have a Happy Colorful Day!
