Buttons, I love them. I seem to use them on just about every craft I do. I made this button-a-licious gift tag for my little girl. She’s only four but I know she’ll adore and appreciate it above and beyond anyone else. The little snowman is called Little Snowy. You can find him on the Holly Jolly Penny Black acrylic stamp set. I made his hand and stocking 3D and the initial is cut out using Mickey font (Cricut cartridge). I added some stickles to his hat too. Little girl’s love glitter. Who doesn’t?

I’m drawn to the sweet little boy stamps lately. I don’t know if it’s because my son is getting older and he’s so much fun or if it’s just that the little boy stamps are improving in cuteness. This one is from Penny Black called Nose to Nose.

I can’t believe Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. My anniversary is right before Valentine’s so we usually celebrate it and skip over V-day. I thought this year I should probably attempt to make the holiday noticed. An honarable mention at least…

The puppy image is from Penny Black’s Critter Party. This particular image is one I colored on the first day I purchased my Copics. It finally was used! I’ll pat myself on the back for that. Good job Lisa for not being a total slacker.

I used Nestabilities large classic circle for the tag. The glass cylinder vase is from the dollar store and the candy sticks are leftovers from a baby shower a few months back. Cute and cheap, the best of both worlds.

This is my new Halloween stamp I bought myself this year. I have tried coloring him a couple times but would get frustrated and stop. I decided since tomorrow is Halloween I better just color it and sew! I think he turned out pretty cute. :)

I’m sure this card would fit in a bunch of challenges right now but in true Lisa fashion I am running behind. I’ll be back tomorrow with one more Halloween card! See you then.

As promised here is thank you card number two for my mom.

I have pined over this Penny Black “Your the Bestest” stamp for months and months. I finally ordered it and inked it up as soon as it arrived. I must say I was right, it is fabulous! I colored the image with my beloved Copics and paired it with papers from Basic Grey Max & Whiskers mini deck and Cosmo Cricket Wanted mini deck. Although I colored the flowers with different markers they sort of blended together with the color of the cat. To rectify the situation I drew on a bit of faint glitter with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen. I then inked the background around the image with antique linen distressed ink. A few embellishments, some sewing, and voila!

Copics Used- YR12, E37, E39, E97, E99, 0, Y21, Y23, Y26, Y28, Y35, YR15, YR18, YG91, YG93, YG95, Y38, W2, R32
