dbj DESIGNS: Blogger card/tutorial by darlenedesign.com

Today's featured design uses stamps, distress inks and copic markers. Can't wait to try this one out. Enjoy

Hi All!

This week I got back to using some of my new Stampin’ Up! products – I just love this new background stamp. I used it as a focal point for this card, but I can also easily see using it as a tone-on-tone background. And don’t you love the purple background stamp? It’s called Netting, and Stampin’ Up! has had it for awhile. But I didn’t notice it in the catalog right away. It’s so subtle – it adds just the right amount of interest without distracting.

I used Copics to color them. The last time I colored poppies I used red. I don’t know if purple poppies exist, so I figured the person who receives this card likely won’t know either, LOL!! So, why not?

I did encounter a problem during coloring – you can check out the video to find out. You may be able to figure it out by looking at the photo above. And gosh, so sorry for being so chatty this time! When I watched the video afterward I thought, geez, could I ramble more?? Sorry about that!!

For those of you who ordered stamps from me, they are ALL in the mail – yeah!! There are still a few left if you want to check it out.

One more thing – just a quick thank you again to all of you who leave such nice comments and send me emails. I read every single one of them. I am always amazed at how thoughtful so many of you are.

Heartfelt thanks.
