With a name like Dreary Daffodils, you’d expect this Etsy shop to be filled with things that are…well, dreary. However, they are almost all downright cheery.

I love the few cards Ireland has posted in her Splitcoaststampers.com gallery. This crane and willow tree card using a tissue paper and acetate technique is absolutely gorgeous. Look at the color and texture on the tree background. I have got to make time to play around with this technique.

So, here is this week’s stamping challenge:

I’m always trying to add more color to my art. This artwork from Rubber Designs shows how amazing black and white can be. I’m going to give some black and white pieces a try, but it will be hard, since I am kind of a color addict.
By the way, if you want to recreate […]
