Hello Eris Blog Hop

Hello Crafty Friends!

Welcome to the Little Blue Button Stamps 'Hello Eris!' Blog Hop!  My blog is the 2nd stop on the hop, if you have not visited Sybil's YouTube channel, that is where you need to start.

Olga has created this absolutely adorable character named Eris.   She is so cute and has a pet dragon!!  Oh my!



Isn't she just adorable???  I printed out the digi image, colored it in with my Copic markers, added glitter, Glossy Accents, and then cut her out with my oval Spellbinder dies. 
 
I decided to make a hot cocoa sleeve.  All you need is a coffee sleeve from your favorite Coffee shop, cover it with pattern paper, add some distress, and glitter and you have a great canvas for making a fun project!
 
Eris was popped up on dimensional adhesive and decorated with punched snowflakes, paper flowers a small tag, punched greenery and of course some butterflies!  I thought it turned out very cute!
 
Here are a couple close up detailed images:
 
 
Olga is offering some great prizes for this blog hop!

Little Blue Button Stamps Guest DT spot for July - Project 1 & 2

Olga at Little Blue Button Stamps (LBBS) asked me to be a guest designer for July.  I had the opportunity to use 3 of Olga's new stamps for July.  Today I am going to show you 2 of the projects I made.

Project #1:
 
I printed this image out on some 80lb Blending Cardstock from Paper Accents.
 
I colored her using my Copic markers.  She was so much fun to color! 
I made a standard A2 size card and used My Mind's Eye Paper (sorry, but I cannot remember what collection it is from).  I stamped the sentiment from a My Creative Time stamp. 
A project would not be complete without ribbon, butterflies or Stickles :)
 
 
Project 2:
 

I colored this cutie using my Copic Markers. 
 
 
The paper bag was purchased from Etsy.
I used the Fabulous paper collection from Simple Stories.
I added some paper flowers from my stash and some retired brads from Stampin' Up.  Finished off with a stamped image using a My Creative Time sentiment
This was a fun project!!
Thanks Olga for the opportunity to design for you!
 
Thanks for stopping by!  I am going to try to be a better blogger :)
