Puzzle Girl Autism Awareness Card

Hi! 

Today is New Release Day at Little Blue Button Stamps and I had the privilege of using "Puzzle Girl" for my project. You can find the New Releases HERE:

When I saw this image I immediately thought of Autism, so I decided to make an Autism Awareness card. The card is large at 5 by 7 inches. The framed puzzle file is from Cricut and the sentiment was inspired by a sentiment found on Pinterest. I used tiny alphabet gems I had in my stash for the sentiment.

The image was printed out in Design space at 4 inches. I colored her with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers and fussy cut her out leaving a narrow white border . She was mounted onto the card base with foam tape.

I hope you liked my Autism Awareness card. Thanks for stopping by.

Picnic Sophie

Hi! Today I am sharing my last DT project for Little Blue Button Stamps.

I used the sweet image, "Picnic Sophie" which can be found HERE:

I created the easel card using files from Bird's Cards. The card base is cut from "Watercolor Ombre" Stack by DCWV.  The floral frame was cut from Pearlescent Cardstock by Recollections. The card is accented with purple gel gems and paper flowers. The sentiment is from Digital Delights by Louby Loo and was added using foam squares.

"Picnic Sophie was colored with my Tri-Blend Markers from Spectrum Noir. She was also attached to the card base with foam squares.

Happy Crafting!

Yum, Yum Sophie

Today I am on the Little Blue Button Stamps Blog with this birthday card using Yum, Yum Sophie and Tasty Cupcake digital stamps.

                                     

This is a slightly over sized card that measures 5.5 by 7.5 inches. A 7.25 by 5.25 light teal mat was added to the white card base, then a 6.5 by 4.75 cupcake print mat from Confetti by the paper studio was added on top of that. 

 A 4.75 by 2.25 pink scalloped border was added to the top of the card and a 1.75 by 4.75 white mat was added on top. A 3.75 by 1 3/8 inch sentiment from Cricut was added onto the white mat.

 A pink 4.75 by .5 inch scalloped strip was added to the bottom.

Using Design Space, I printed "Yum, Yum Sophie" at 4 inches and the "Tasty Cupcake" was printed at 1.5 inches. I colored the images with my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. I used a glitter pen for accents on the cupcakes.

 The cupcake image was added to a pink 1.75 inch circle tag and a yellow 2 1/8 inch scalloped circle. This was added to the lower right side of the top border and a teal bow was added to the top of the tag.

Thanks for stopping by!

Have a great day!

                                  

Beach Play Sophie Easel Card

Hi! Now that summer has finally arrived there's nothing better than a day on the beach playing in the sand!

Today I am on the Little Blue Button Stamps Blog with this fun little easel card. I used  "Beach Play Sophie" which can be found here:  https://lbbstamps.com/product/beach-play-sophie-digi-stamp/

The card base is "Bright Side Easel Card" from My Scrap Chick which you can find here:  https://www.myscrapchick.com//product.cfm?product=779

I made the card slightly larger at about 5 by 7 inches. Using Design Space I attached the image to the cloud and printed it using the print then cut function. I colored her using my Spectum Noir Alcohol Markers. 

The sentiment is from Digital Delights by Louby Loo. The final touch  was a row of white lace and blue striped ribbon added to the card base.

Dressed Up Sophie

Hi! Today I want to share a card I made for a special friend. I used the sweet Dressed Up Sophie Digi Stamp from Little Blue Button Stamps for my card. This image comes with the sentiments pictured.

I made my card in Cricut Design Space. The card base is a pink 6 inch square card. I then added a 5.75 inch square light yellow mat, then a pink mat at the top that measures 5.5 by 2.75 inches. (The paper is from the Watercolor Ombre Stack by DCWV.) A floral mat the same size was added to the bottom. ( The pink rose floral cardstock is from Samantha Rose by DCWV.) A 5.75 inch wide heart border was added to the center where the two mats meet and a daisy trim was added down the middle. Small pink pearls were added to the center of each flower.

To create the image I started by slicing the sentiments off of the image, then attached the Sophie image to a 4.75 inch decorative shape with a matching frame. (from LSHD) I colored Sophie and her furry friend with my Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers.  The frame was cut from vanilla Pearlescent Cardstock by COLORBOK. The completed image and frame were attached to upper left side of the card with foam tape.

 The sentiments were printed separately, cut into small rectangular shapes, then matted on coordinating cardstock. These were glued to the lower right side.

I love how sweet this card is. 

Thanks for looking!

Boarding Time Shape Card

All Aboard!

Do you have some exciting tavel plans for this summer? This cute little guy is all packed and ready to go!

 It's New Release Day at Little Blue Button Stamps and I used the cute little "Boarding Time" digi stamp to create this little shape card.

You can find all the New Releases HERE:

I created the shape card by welding two suitcase files from Design Space together at the sides. I cut an extra suitcase from patterned paper for the front of the card and added little rounded corners to the suitcase. I also added aqua pearls to the corners. The words "travel" and"journey" and the "Bon Voyage" luggage tag were also from Cricut. A pearl was added to the luggage tag.

I colored the cute little traveler with my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers.

Thanks for stopping by.

Bon Voyage!

Sophie With Umbrella Easel Card

"April showers bring May flowers" or at least we hope so!

I used the sweet digi stamp, "Sophie With Umbrella" from Little Blue Button Stamps on my card.

She can be found here: https://lbbstamps.com/product/sophie-with-umbrella-digi-stamp/

I colored the image using my Spectrum Noir TriBlend Markers. She was added to the finished card with foam squares.

I created this umbrella shaped easel card in Design Space. 

You should be able to access the Design Space file here:
https://design.cricut.com/#/design/141213820

I used patterned cardstock from the "Uptown Flair Glitter Stack" by the paper studio for my card. I made mountain folds on the green umbrella piece and added it to the card with a double foam square in the center and small glue dots at the points. Clear flower gems were added at the points also.

I added my sentiment to an octagon and matted the sentiment with the same paper as used on the umbrella. I added it to the card with foam squares, then added some clear flower gems around the sentiment. These help to hold the easel part of the card. 

Thanks for stopping by! I'd love to hear what you think.

Miss Lilly on the Bike Garden Gate Easel Card

Hi! It is finally starting to look like Spring!

Today I am sharing a sweet little easel card made by combining the adorable Miss Lilly on the Bike from Little Blue Button Stamps, with Birds and Garden Gate Easel from My Scrap Chick.

                              

When making the garden gate I made four of the cross beams on the gate. I put two across horizontally and the other two on each end vertically. I used two layers of double stick tape for the side pieces to raise them up a little.

I used cardstock from several sources for my card. I used a blue floral print for the background, a green dot for the grass, and a gray wood grain print for the garden gate. The card base is light blue,

I moved one of the birds to the left to create room for the image.

Here is how the card looks from the back and side.

I used my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers to color Miss Lily on the Bike. I tried to copy the grass and garden gate between the spokes of the bike tires. I fussy cut the image and added her to the card using foam tape to give the card some extra dimension.

I created the sentiments in Cricut Design Space and added the "Life is a beautiful ride" sentiment using more foam tape.

I think these two files make a perfect pairing. My Scrap Chick cards make a perfect base for LBBS images!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Spring!

Easter Charlie

Hi! It's New Release time at Little Blue Button Stamps and I made an Easter step card using the sweet "Easter Charlie" digi stamp. You can find all the New Releases HERE:

I got the Cricut Design Space file for the step card from the Facebook group, Cricut Lovers Guide to Design Space. I used patterned cardstock from Uptown Flair Glitter Stack from The Paper Studio for my card. The cute little chicks are a file from My Scrap Chick.

I colored the sweet "Easter Charlie" with my Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers using soft pastels.

Thanks for looking! 

Happy Easter!

Kite Sophie and Sam

Hi! March is known as a kite flying month, so I used Kite Sophie and Sam from Little Blue Button Stamps to make a kite shaped card.

closed

open

I created the file in Design Space. Dotted lines are score lines and solid lines are cut lines.

Start with cardstock that measures 12 by 5 inches. Mark the points that is 3.5 inches in from the outside edges along the long sides. They will be at 3.5 and 8.5 inches along the top and bottom. Make fold lines from the top left to the bottom right point, and from the top right to the bottom left point. It will form an X. Make an additional fold line down the center at 6 inches.  The center fold will be a valley fold and the others will be mountain folds.

Next, along the short sides, mark the center point at 2.5 inches. Connect this point to the closest marked points at the top and bottom of the long sides creating triangle shapes at the corners. These are cut lines, so cut off these corners.

I colored the image with my Spectrum Noir Tri-Color Alcohol Markers.

 I fussy cut the image and mounted it to the card front with foam tape. I added a twine tail and ribbon ties.

Go fly a kite!
