Hey there stamping friends. Today I am sharing a video that I am super excited about. I bought some digital downloads from Love, Dani Studio. I love her art work and was excited to have digital images of hers to color. If you recognize her style that is because she is one of the stamp set designers for Trinity Stamps as well. But the main reason I bought them was because all proceeds of the sale went to support all those still displaced by the Boulder County Wildfire that took place on December 30, 2021. This fire that devastated the small town of Superior, Colorado left thousands of people homeless as 1,000 homes were destroyed. Entire subdivisions were reduced to nothing but ash. Dani of Love, Dani Studio lives there. Although her home was spared her heart is broken for the friends and neighbors who's lives have been forever altered and the devastation they face. She wants to make a difference in her community and so she used her gifts and talents to raise money by selling these five printable color sheets.
This download is only $2.50 and all the proceeds go to the Boulder County Wildfire Fund. Click here to get yours.
You can also donate directly to the Boulder County Wildfire Fund HERE.
I printed out these fun word art images at 65% to be able to fit them onto an A7 sized card. You can watch the video below to see how they came together.
AND! I am selling each of the five cards I made to raise money for the Boulder County Wildfire Fund. Each card is $10 and all the proceeds will go to this fund. You can purchase a card over on my Facebook page, HERE.
If you can not see the video on this page you can watch it over on my YouTube channel.
Now let's take a close up look at each of these five cards.
I just love that Dani creates images with word art and each and every image is uplifting and inspirational.
I used Copic Markers to color this image and I just love how it turned out!
Embellishments on this card are so much fun, rainbow jelly hearts from Trinity Stamps. And I added touches of glitter as well with some Diamond Stickles.
Do you see the patterned paper I used in the background? That paper is part of a collection, designed by Love, Dani for Trinity Stamps. It's delish paper and is linked for you below.
I only wish I could make bubble letters like this, but that is why I am a stamper and not an illustrator. Thank goodness for Dani who shares her art with the world and brings joy to everyone who either makes with it or receives it.
Again, on this card I did my coloring with Copic Markers, my favorite thing to do with word art is to color it with a ombre effect.
You'll see that I brought back the Diamond Stickles to dress up the hearts once again. To embellish, rhinestones in all colors of the rainbow, also by Trinity Stamps.
Don't you love the nice highlight that the white gel pen gives the letters!
I had my fun with my Copic Markers and something just led me to pull out my watercolors and paint this image. Now, I printed this out on some cheap card stock that I buy in a ream from Walmart, sooooo, special care was taken to paint with little water. I can say, I had tons of fun painting this and I love the soft imperfect look of watercolor.
I added a bit of Sparkle Silk for some shimmery splatter on this card and some white gems. And, yes, Diamond Stickles.
For the four card I pulled out another coloring medium, colored pencils. It's been a while since I used them and it was refreshing and I always feel so artsy when I use them.
Do you see the nice embossed line around the edge of the die cut rectangle? That was created with the use of the Modern Edge A7 rectangle dies. I love that little touch, so much nicer than just using a rectangle that I cut with my paper trimmer.
You can see touches of Diamond Stickles in the confetti on this card.
Went a little crazy with color on this card. I made these stripes on this card using ink cubes from Concord & 9th. Then I darkened the letters with colored pencils. Speaking of crazy.... I added glaze to the largest words to help them POP.
And I had fun with the embellishments too. I love the clay hearts and rainbows! Such a cute touch.
You can find all the things I used to make today's cards listed and linked for you below. And, if you are interested in purchasing one of these cards be sure to visit my Facebook page.
