Beautiful Pitchers! - Dare 2B Artzy

Hello Dare 2B Artzy Friends,

I am showing you a step card and combining it with our beautiful papers and matching dies!
The great thing about our dies is that they cut out the matching stamp sets and the gorgeous designer paper with the same print!  How awesome is that!!

Design Steps:

1. Use a die to cut out the step card or check out this Youtube video from Splitcoaststampers that shows you steps to create the card without the die
2. Add the pink card stock layer and then top the layer with navy checked paper from Pretty Petals Variety Pack
3. Using the Dare 2B Artzy Pitcher designer paper from the Pretty Petals Variety Pack and coordinating dies cut out the pitchers that you would like on each step
4. Using the Dare 2B Artzy flower paper from the Pretty Petals Variety Pack and coordinating dies cut out the flowers for the pitcher
5. Glue the flowers to the back of the pitcher for the main panel and then pop the pitcher to the panel
6. Add the remaining pitchers to each of the steps
7. Using foam that has adhesive to one side adhere the pink paper to the foam.  Then run the foam and paper through your die cut machine using a hello die
8. Glue the hello to the front step and add the enamel dots

 I hope you give this sweet card a try!  I can't wait to send it to a friend!

Play Ball - Dare 2B Artzy

Hello Dare 2B Artzy Friends!

It is so much fun driving around neighborhoods during the spring.  You get to see all the cute little leaguers playing baseball.  Some of the little ones are so small the bats are bigger then they are!! That was my inspiration for my card today!

 Design Steps

1. Use an A2 white card base and score at 2 1/8 and to make it easy I just flipped the card and scored again at 2 1/8.  This scoring will create a simple gatefold
2. Cut two pieces of navy paper 2 x 5 1/4 and two pieces of Dare 2B Artzy Summertime Petals Collection paper at 1 3/4 x 5.  Glue the DP to the navy paper and then onto the card front
3. Cut a piece of navy paper 4 1/4 x 2 1/2 and attach it to the right side of the gatefold
4. Stamp the images and sentiment using the Hats Off set.  Color with copics: BG72, 75, 78 - E33, 35, 37 - R46.  Cut them out with the coordinating die set
5. Adhere to the card front as shown
