Artzy Birthday Wishes

It's my birthday month!  Yay me!  I love birthdays.  I love them even more as I get older because it means that I am just that much closer to retirement.  Woo Hoo!!

It's my date to post over at Dare 2B Artzy!  Here's what I did:


I used Dare 2B Artzy, Artzy Doodles paper along with the fun-filled stamp and die set, Birthday Balloons with Dies!  I stamped the balloons and string with Dare 2B Artzy Premium Ink in Totally Black.  When I lined up the string, I got it as close as possible and then drew in the little bit of gap with a Copic Multi-liner pen.  Then, I stamped in the color for the balloons using Dare 2B Artzy Premium Ink in Bright Pumpkin and Sunset Yellow.  The very front balloon had white stars, but I wanted them to be yellow, so I colored them in with Copic Marker Y18.  Love how this premium ink doesn't smear on the edges with alcohol markers.




I fussy cut and popped up the flower from the Artzy Doodles Paper.

So, before you leave, be sure to "like" the Dare 2B Artzy Facebook Page!  Also, JOIN our Dare 2B Artzy Birthday Challenge!  I dare you to be ARTZY!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Craftily yours,

Karen
