DRS Designs Blog Hop Stop #2

Welcome to the DRS Designs Blog Hop!
This is stop #2, if you missed the first post make sure to go back to here to check it out.


For this release, Dustin Pike has teamed up with DRS Designs and many of the newest images are drawn by him! Have you been enjoying all of the sneak peeks the DT has been showing you this week? Aren't these jungle animal stamps just the cutest? I'm having so much fun creating with them.



Here's one I made using Jungle Jim the Elephant and the "Walk on the Wild Side" sentiment.


I colored Jungle Jim with gray Copic Markers and then used a pink Prismacolor Pencil blended with Gamsol to shade his ears.



This card is pretty straight forward, and here's the recipe below. Of course though, if you have any questions, feel free to contact me.



Stamps: DRS Designs- Jungle Jim the Elephant, Walk on the Wild Side sentiment
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Paper: Smooth white cardstock by Office Depot, Colored Cardstock by American Crafts
Accessories: Prismacolor Pencils, Gamsol, Copic Markers C1 and C3, Martha Stewart Zig Zag Border Punch, Ribbon unknown from my stash, Brads by Making Memories
Finished Card Size: 7 3/8" x 3 7/8"



This image release is not the only exciting thing going on right now with DRS Designs--there's lots of fun stuff happening! Now that May is practically here there are 2 new Guest Designers on the team. Please welcome Deb Felts and Dawn Barrett to the DT by stopping over at their blogs for a friendly visit!



Also, don't forget that the DT Color Challenge to use Chocolate Chip, Pink Passion, and Summer Sun (or the closest matches) on your project. Post a direct link to your creation in the comment section of the color challenge post for a chance at some fun blog candy. Drawing will take place Sunday evening, May 3.



Next stop on the blog hop is our new Guest Designer Dawn Barrett at stop #3! Keep your eyes open...there's a blog candy give away somewhere along the way--a nice bunch of goodies you don't want to miss, but you'll have to follow the hop to the end to find out which of the DT members has it!
