National Coffee Day 2022

Hi Artzy friends -

Today is National Coffee Day! I hope you're celebrating with your favorite caffeinated beverage!

Dare 2B Artzy is participating in a blog hop to celebrate. Hop along for a chance to win prizes from all of the Super Sponsors!

I created this coffee themed card using some fun Dare 2B Artzy products.

I used the Be Frappe stamp and die set and the Pop Up Feature die to create this all occasion card that is perfect to present with a gift card included!

I even created my own background paper with the coffee bean stamp included in the stamp set.

I also added some glossy accents and sparkle pen accents to my images for some extra shine and dimension.

Dare 2B Artzy is offering a 10% discount on any order, with code COFFEE10,  good until midnight (central) Friday October 7, 2022.

Please join me in hopping along with this fun coffee inspired blog hop, beginning with the Coffee Loving Cardmakers blog here! 

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

Frosty Shaker

Hi Artzy friends -

I have another card to share with you today using the new Frosty Hello stamp set from Dare 2B Artzy  I love the versatility of this set - it can not only be used for holiday cards but also any occasion all winter long.

My little snowman loves catching snowflakes on his tongue, and he's catching them from every angle in this 4 window shaker card. 

I cut 4 windows into my patterned paper from the new Holly Days 6x6 paper pack using a die from the Square Framelit die set.

I stamped and my four snowmen onto a piece of white cardstock, aligning them so would show inside my 4 cutouts. 

I adhered a piece of acetate behind the panel and added foam tape all around the window openings so I could add an assortment of wintery shaker bits into each window. 

I adhered my window panel onto my stamped and colored snowman panel and added a sentiment to a strip cut with a die from the Curve Slimline Border dies set.

This month our challenge on the Dare 2B Artzy blog is Animals. Link up your card here for a chance to win a $15 gift certificate to the Dare 2B Artzy store. 

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

September Challenge - Animals

 Hi Artzy friends -

It's time for another monthly Artzy challenge!

Can you believe September is here already?!

This month's challenge theme is "Animals" and Dare 2B Artzy has a large selection of stamps with animals, most of which are super cute and whimsical! Check out the "Animal Lovers"  category on the website!

I chose to use the Center Step dies to create this cute colorful puppy card. The dog is from the Ruff Day stamp set and is cut out with the Dog die. The paw print border stamp is from the Pet Lover stamp set. I figured this card can be used for just about any occasion, just by adding a sentiment or hand written note inside!

The striped paper background is from the Space Odyssey collection.

I hope you'll join the challenge here on the Dare 2B Artzy blog for a chance to win a $15 gift certificate to the store! Have fun creating cards with animals this month!

Thanks for visiting and have a great day,

Avra 

Breezy Blossom Birthday

 Hi Artzy friends -

I can't seem to get enough of the whimsical  Breezy Blossoms stamps and dies! And hot foiled backgrounds are one of my other new obsessions! Together I think they make a really pretty card!

I colored two of the floral images with Copic markers and die cut them with the Breezy Blossoms dies.  I created a background panel with the Make Waves hot foil plate. All that shine makes me so happy!

I die cut my hot foiled background panel with a dotted rectangle die that comes with the Leaf Background die set. 

My sentiment is from the Scandinavian Songbirds stamp set. 

My images and sentiment were popped up on my background and this cheery card was complete!

I hope you will check out the Dare 2B Artzy store for more products to take your card making through these final summer days, into fall and beyond...including brand new products for the upcoming holiday season!

Thanks for visiting and have a great day!
