Another Year... by Dana Warren

Hello AI fans!!

It's the new year, do you do New Year Resolutions?? I used to, but it never lasts!!! One thing we all would like to do more is exercise!! I so love this image from the Don't Sweat It, it has a perfect sentiment for the new year!!

First i picked out some pattern paper from a My Minds Eye 6 x 6 pad, Chalk Studio Basics. I picked out a few patterns for her outfit, stamping her multiple times. Then it was just a matter of fussy cutting out all the pieces. Before adding the outfit i first used my Spectrum Noir markers to color her skin and hair.

When she was colored and assembled i cut her out with a circle die. From some other patterns i cut two other circles. 

For the background i picked out a grey pattern paper and adhered it to a white card base. Then i added my image and the pink circle. Last i stamped the sentiment to the top of the remaining circle and adhered it to my card, trimming off the overhang. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!! Happy Stamping!!

Work It by Dana Warren

Hello AI fans!

Dana here with a encouraging card for you! This would be a great card to send to someone who needs a little encouragement with their work out or diet! 

I started by stamping the exercise woman from the Don't Sweat It stamp set on some watercolor paper. I used distress makers and some water to color her in.

For the background i cut some polka dot pattern paper with a stitched rectangle. Then i placed a stencil over it and used distress ink to color in the torn stripes. Then i added the panel to a black card base. 

For the sentiment i cut black strip and stamped the Work It! sentiment in versamark ink, then heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I added the strip across the card, then added the exercise lady with foam dots.

Thanks for stopping by!! Happy Stamping
