Art Impressions All A-Buzz Challenge

 Hello AI Fans!


Hope you all are staying cool in these hot summer days! I'm here today with a card I made for the All A-Buzz challenge that's going on right now. Have you entered it yet? If not, you still have time to get a project done! I used the new 5925 Honey Bee Set and I am in love!! This set is so amazing and has soooo many stamps and it also comes with dies!!! Daisies are my favorite flower, so when I saw the daisies and dies in this set, I was so happy!! As you can see, I kind of went overboard with them, LOL! I had to be nice and threw a few sun flowers in there too. :)  I created the sunshine background with a stencil from my stash and some distress inks. I also added a couple layers of grass to ground all the flowers and beehive. And these adorable bees!!! Can you even handle it??!! LOL! I topped it off with a pot of honey and a bow (lol).  The images were stamped onto alcohol ink friendly paper and then colored with Copics which are listed below. 





Thank you so much for stopping by for a visit today! Until next time - stay crafty!!

Fairy grateful for you featuring Art Impressions!

 Hello AI Fans!


I have another magical card for you today. This time I used the Ta Da Diorama base for my fun, magical card. I love this die as it helps me easily create a wonderful diorama featuring all the amazing and magical images from Art Impressions! I used the Fairies from #5915 Woodland Fairies Set, that AMAZING shoe is from #5935 Fairytale Houses Set, and that gorgeous paper is from 5939 Fairy Garden PP!! The images were all stamped onto alcohol ink friendly paper and then colored with Copic markers which are listed below. This one is really hard to get good pictures of to show all the amazing dimension, so I hope you don't mind the ton of pictures I took to try and show you. But I LOVE that it folds flat for mailing! 



I put a butterfly onto a piece of acetate so it looks like it's floating about the Fairy's head and that's what she is looking at. 








Thank you so much for stopping for for a visit today, and until next time - stay crafty!
