Need a Hug?

 Hi Artzy friends -

There's so much going on in everyone's lives right now; I would like to take this time to send you a big hug! But only if you promise to send one to me in return!

This adorable teddy bear is from the Teddy Bear Hugs stamp set, and cut out with the coordinating die. 

After coloring the bear, I cut two concentric circle frames using the Double Dot Circle framelit dies.

I mounted the circles, the bear, and the stamped sentiment, on beautiful plaid paper from the Autumn Oasis collection. I just love the beautiful fall colors and patterns in this collection. 

I think this set would make a great card for a teacher in your life too!

Be sure to check out all of the wonderful stamps, dies, and papers that Dare 2B Artzy has to offer!

A Peek of Fall

Hi Artzy friends! 

Here in Ohio we're back to the "dog days of summer," which is to be expected in mid August.  But over the past week we had a few days that actually felt a little fall like. The cooler temps briefly put me in the mood to make a fall card! (Don't worry, I'm not done with summer yet!)

Dare 2B Artzy has several fall themed stamps and dies, as well as papers featuring beautiful fall colors, and I've used a few of them here.

For this card I colored and die cut images from the Foxy Greetings stamp set and the Squirrel stamp set. The patterned paper is from the Autumn Oasis collection. 

I love these cute critters no matter what season it says on the calendar!

Be sure to take a look at all of the fall themed stamps and papers that Dare 2B Artzy has to offer! 

I also hope you'll join the monthly challenge on the Dare 2B Artzy blog. The theme for August is "Anything Goes."  Enter for your chance to win a $15 gift certificate to the shop! 

Thanks for visiting, and have a great day!
