Stamp: Eris Cup of hot chocolate
Color the image with Copic markers and die cut it with Spellbinders Nestabilities. I matched a printed paper with the colors of the Eris stamp to a square card from DCWV to make a lovely color combination. I tore an edge across the printed paper to give a white edge. I used glue dots to adhere three matching blue buttons. I added the cutest Hot chocolate sentiment from Cosmo Cricket. My finishing touch was a lovely silver bow.
I have been crafting all my life, but starting stamping back in 99 when I came across this adorable little scrapbook store and I bought my first brass stencil that I used to emboss my husband a card. I was hooked on cardmaking from that day on! I have been published in many magazines and I just love coloring with Copic markers. I started up my blog in the Summer of 2009 and this is what I said, "Here's my rubber stamping blog to share my creations. My goal is make everyone's day a little brighter by sharing one crafty project every day. Cheers Holley." That couldn't be more true to this day. Everyday I share one creation in hopes of inspiring other crafters and showing how much I enjoy my hobby.
Stamp: Happy Birthday Jessica
diecut: Paper Smooches Dainty Flower Wise Dies; The happy birthday and tiny butterfly die came as a freebie with a magazine purchase from Papercraft.
Color the image with Copic Markers and die cut it out using Spellbinders Nestabilities. Rub the edges with Colorbox Chalk ink;
Cut the flowers in black, red, yellow, and green so you can paper piece them together on the card (all solid papers used were Bazzill brand); The base polkadot card is JoAnns cardstock

We're here to share with you the second project from our Guest Designer of the month Michelle!
This time she chose our old stamp line Jessica.
Please feel free to visit Michelle's blog to see more of her beautiful creations!
Hello. It's Michelle from Laughing Ducks blog here, back to share my second card with you.
This beauty is called Walking Jessica and you can find her at the Little Blue Button Stamps store.
I coloured her in with ProMarkers and my papers are LOTV Nitwits. She fitted beautifully into this
oval frame from Spellbinders. A real pleasure to colour in. It's been fantastic sharing my cards with
you all using Olga's beautiful Digi Stamps.
Hello! Today we have a special guest on our blog - guest designer Michelle and her beautiful handmade cards!
I love to see different projects from all over the world! And Michelle did an amazing job using this digi
My name is Michelle Lancaster and my blog is Laughing Ducks. I made this card with Olga's gorgeous digi stamp called Mix Media Holiday Girl.
I have coloured her in with ProMarkers and the card base is a Crealies die (No. 6).
The flowers and leaves are a die set from Crafter's Companion.
Everything else is from my stash.
Christmas is coming! Christmas is coming! I can repeat this for hundred times! I love snow, I love decorated trees, I love warm dinners with my family!
Well, most of all I love Christmas in Europe and USA (I've never been there, but hey, I saw in the Internet) - decorated houses, streets, shops. All these sweaters, family Christmas pictures, fun with buying and wrapping presents! YEY!
Well, but today is November 11th only, so we play along with another Christmas digi
Happy Friday, dear friends! I hope you have had an amazing week! I am super excited to kick off the weekend with my second guest project for Little Blue Button Stamps. This Warrior Princess digi stole my heart from the moment I laid on eyes on her!
To me, this lovely little princess looks very whimsical and dreamy. I wanted to create a dream world for her on my card. To do that, I started by coloring her in very light, subtle colors using my Copic markers. I felt like this added to her ethereal feel.
Her abstract dream world was created by applying Distress Inks directly to a floral background stamp and then spritzing it with a little water. I stamped it onto some watercolor card stock and then did a little more spitting to spread the colors around a bit. I used my heat tool to try it and then splattered some black Distress Paint over the background.
I really wanted some gold for her crown and the hilt of her sword. To create the perfect shimmery gold I mixed some Gold Perfect Pearls with a little water and used a paintbrush to splatter some gold onto the background and color in her crown and sword hilt. I couldn't resist adding some to her hair, too! A little gold on the edges and a gold sentiment on the inside finished this card up!
VIDEO COMING SOON!!!
I hope you enjoyed the projects I shared for the amazing Little Blue Button Stamps! Be sure to go get yourself a digi or two - I promise you won't regret it! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you again soon! Bye!
Hello everyone! This month we decided to come back to guest DT spots. From now we will be having guest designers sharing their projects from time to time!
Today our special guest is Tara from Curl E. Cues blog. She used Witch Button digi stamp
Happy Sunday to you all! Today I am so excited to be sharing Day 2 of my Handmade Halloween video series for 2016 and I have the honor of being a guest designer for the fabulous Little Blue Button Stamps! I just adore the digital images available from this company and had the best time Copic coloring this sweet Witch Button! I think this is my favorite card I've made in a long time. I just loved everything about creating it!
I printed my Little Witch image on some Neenah 110 lb card stock. One of the great things about digital stamps is the ability to size them to fit the needs of your project. I wanted my image to be the focal point of my card so I printer her out a little larger but you could absolutely do a smaller image if you wanted to!
I decided to step outside of my comfort zone and attempt to create shadows in this scene to indicate that the moon is glowing from the upper left corner of the card. I have never really tried to be specific about my light source before and I loved the challenge of trying to color this way! Her curly hair was also really fun to color and pushed me to try something I'd never done before!
My background scene is created using Distress Inks and a few dies from my collection. At heart, I am a scene builder! This type of card is my favorite and it was such a blast to put this together!
You can find a supply list and video tutorial in Tara's blog
