Fun Friday with LBBS!

For Fun Friday this week I got to play with Mixed Media Peony - I mdd this 8x8 canvas in a mixed media style. 

The canvas was sprayed with Heidi Swap colour shine using a Prima stencil from my stash.  Then I just added a doily and some flowers to surround her and my saying in the bottom right hand corner.

Check out my youtube channel for a closer look.

If you would like to get your hands on some of these super cute digi images or even some Rubber stamps please check out the Little Blue Buttons store.  And to see the other wonderful projects from the other design team members please head on over to the LBBS Blog.

Happy Papercrafting!

Creative Wednesday - LBBS

Welcome to Creative Wednesday with Little Blue Button Stamps.

Today I got to play with Rocker Charlie who is so super cool.   I decided to make a card and of course I had to use stars with this super rock star!

I love how she turned out.  I found some black rhinestone Want 2 Scrap bling that was star shaped to go with the star spellbinders.  The patterned paper is from DCWV.

Head on over to LBBS and check out the other projects for Creative Wednesday and head over to my youTube channel for a video of this card.

Here are the copic colours that I used to colour Rocker Charlie - I also used a silver gel pen to accent her boots, guitar and earrings.

Happy Papercrafting!

Little Blue Button Stamps - September Digi Release Today!

Today is release day for Little Blue Button Digi Stamps, and I am so excited to say that I am a member of the new Digi Design Team =)  Yah me!!

For this release I got the chance to play with the new digi stamp called Mixed Media - it is so cool, I decided to make a mixed media canvas.  I printed the digi out on some patterned paper and then coloured it up with my Copic Markers.  I printed a couple extra images of the flower that is in her hair so that I could colour them and shape them.  I layered it with hot glue to make a 3D flower in her hair and added some other flowers from Petaloo and Recollections all around. 

In each of the clusters I added some metal gears and embellishments and some mini dominoes and mini light bulbs.  

Here is the flower from the image that I made 3D and added some stamen coming from the bottom. 

In this close up you can see the sparkle and shine from the Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays that I used on the background.  I started with an empty canvas and used a couple different stencils with some home made texture paste - really love how it turned out, the texture past soaked in the brown colours from the sprays and the purple and blue mica stayed around all the edges - so beautiful.

Check out my youtube channel for a close up look of the canvas.  

And definitely check out LBBS  to pick up your own digi's, and check out the blog for other DT members projects.

Miss Lilly Summer - DT Project for LBBS

I'm here with my 3rd and final project as a guest designer for Little Blue Button stamps.  I have had a blast with each of my projects and I decided to make something big for my final one.

I used some chipboard pennants from Fancy Pants which I have had in my stash forever.  I covered them in paper from the Endless Summer stack from DCWV (also an oldie).  I decorated each of the banners with a doily from Michaels and a spellbinders out of the patterned paper.

Then they were decorated with flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts and some acrylic flowers and butterflies.  All the laces are from my stash and then I also used some iridescent flat back pearls from MB Treasurista.

I absolutely love the way it turned out and Miss Lily Summer is so adorable.  Below is close up pictures of each of the banners.  Be sure to stop by my youtube channel for a video of it.

Miss Lilly Summer was coloured up with Copics (colours listed below).  I added some glitter with Wink of Stella on her skirt and the ribbon on her hat and then I added some crystal accents on her sun glasses.  I decided to make the popsicle into a fudge-sicle - mmmmm!

Hope you have enjoyed my projects for Little Blue Button stamps - head on over to their website and get yourself some of these stamps and digi's for yourself!!

Miss Lilly Glasses - Guest DT for LBBS!!

Hi Everyone!

I have my second project for Little Blue Button stamps and I am so super excited about this one.  I decorated an envelope from the DCWV Vintage Collector line and she is adorable!!
I coloured up Miss Lilly Glasses with my Spectrum Noir and Copic markers and added some paper from the Authentique Sweetness collection.

For the base on the envelope I used one of my new dies from Mama Elephant which has a scallop card base and a stitched layer for inside.  I die cut some floral paper from the Vintage Collector and a vellum piece for the inside.  The sentiment "Just Eat Ice Cream" is fussy cut from the Authentique collection and I added a sprinkling of sequins all over.

The marker colours that I used are listed below and for some additional interest I added diamond stickler to her headband and her dress and glossy accents to her glasses.  I really do love the way this one turned out.

If you would like a closer look please visit my youtube channel to see the video on this project!

Spectrum Noir:
Dress - PP1, PP4, PP5, BT3, BT5
Copics:
Skin - E000, E00, E21, R20

Guest Designer, Little Blue Button Stamps - Yah me!!!

Hi Everyone!

I am so happy to be coming to you today with a project for Little Blue Button Stamps.  I was chosen to be a guest designer for the month of June and will be sharing three projects with you.

So, for my first project I started with Sweet Geisha Charlie and I wanted to alter an item.  I chose a paper mache note pad holder that has been in my stash for quite some time.  I started by colouring it with black gesso and then covering it with patterned paper from the Bo Bunny Enchanted paper line.

She turned out so sweet.  I coloured her up with Copic and Spectrum Noir markers and added some glossy purple with a Sakura gel pen.  I used the Tim Holtz Ornate frame for the background and stood it up with a picture frame backing that I pulled off of one of the Micheals $1.50 ceramic frames.
Added some little white doilies from my stash and decorated with roses from Wild Orchid Crafts and cherry blossoms from I am Roses.

Check out my YouTube channel for a closer look and a list of marker colours used.
Stay tuned for more projects before the end of the month - thank you so much for stopping by.
