Hello! I’m sharing a card today made with the so cute Sweet Dreams digital image from Little Blue Button Stamps.

To create a soft dreamy effect, I pulled out my FSJ Color Splash pencils and watercolored the Sweet Dreams image. The background was created using FSJ silks onto watercolor paper and the stars by applying acrylic paint with a sponge using the FSJ Starbrite Stencil. The frame was embossed with the FSJ Wind & Water Embossing Folder and Catalina ink applied to the embossed areas. The final touch were the Splash Zone Sequins adding a little glitz and glam to the night sky.

I hope you sleep well with sweet dreams!

It’s time for Little Blue Button Stamps July Release. The digital stamp I am featuring on my blog is “Hey You!”

She’s sassy, she’s cute, living it up in the big city. It’s a night on the town and she’s ready to have some fun. But, first she has to grab a cab. Hey you? Yes, you! I have places to go and people see!

This card uses a lot of creative elements. I used Distress Oxide inks for the sky background and took the negative of the cut out cityscape and spritzed FSJ Blue Lagoon Splash to create the skyline shadow. The FSJ Hero City die set is cut from Blue Lagoon cardstock. The frame is die cut from Lemongrass cardstock using a MFT stitched die set I have had in my stash for many a year. Pink and Main Basket Cover Die is cut from Pool Play cardstock with a Denim Days mat peeking out from under the Pool Play.

The LBBS, Hey You, girl is colored using Faber-Castell Polychromos and FSJ Color Burst pencils. She is popped up with foam squares. The final touch of glitz is Journey Sequins Blue Skies.

I am making it under the wire, yet again, for a Paper Craft Crew (#233) challenge. This week’s challenge is a Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge. I chose the middle, vertical column (shimmer, Shabby Chic, flowers) for my card. Here is the sketch:

This image is a digi stamp I purchased from Sherri Baldy’s Etsy shop. The purchase gave me two digi stamps of the cutest girl. I have a blog post featuring the other image here.

I had decided to try and make dread locks/ringlets on my girl after watching a YouTube tutorial on coloring with alcohol markers (sorry, I didn’t make a note of the video). I will do my best to note the markers I used, but this was one of those creative moments where I was creating and not paying attention to the details of what I used. Anyway, I’ll pull out my Spectrum Noir Hex chart and do the best I can (it will be pretty close).

Spectrum Noir alcohol markers were used on the girl and the flowers. The hair – IG10, IG2, BG6, BG3; skin – HB2, FS2, FS7, BG4, TN3, TN5; lips and cheeks – FS8; dress/headband/pants – LG2, LG3, LG5, LY`, OR1, OR2; eye – LG2, LG5; flowers – CT2, OR2, OR3; leaves – LG2, LG3, LG5; and, the blender pen was used throughout.

The base cardstock is SU! Pistachio. The images were stamped on Spectrum Noir cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. The base mat is Pink and Main designer paper die cut with Fun Stamper Journey Persian Garden die, The orange mat is FSJ Creamsicle cardstock with a light green mat of designer paper from Heartfelt Creations Sweet Berry 12×12 paper pack (this explains all the flowers – I had to cover up all the strawberries on the mat – LOL), a Spellbinders die was used to create some FSJ Creamsicle swirls. Spectrum Noir clear glitter pen was applied to the hair and skirt to add the SHIMMER. FSJ Journey Glaze was applied to the flowers, skirt waist, skirt trim, and eye. Diamond rhinestones were added to the flower centers, and a triple bow from SU! lace Pistachio ribbon accented the card. Last but not least, everything is popped, popped, popped up. A lot of dimension is going on here.

It is a very busy card, but I like busy and it really yells Shabby Chic.

I really love the way this card turned out. It is one of my favorites.
