I am so excited to be a guest design team member for Little Blue Button Stamps (LBBS)! Olga’s stamps are adorable and have such great attitude!<\/p>\n

<\/a>The minute I saw this new digi stamp,\u00a0Sassy Charlie<\/a><\/span><\/span>, with her contemplative look and her finger poised by her lips, I knew I wanted to make an Austin Powers inspired layout (yes, I know Dr. Evil used his pinky). I am a bit of an Anglophile and I thought the wild and retro\u00a0vibe would make a super fun project.<\/p>\n

I colored up Sassy Charlie’s\u00a0dress with a Union Jack motif and found an old paper from the DCWV “tie-dyed stack” collection that made a great psychedelic background. I downloaded a free 70s font and used my Silhouette Cameo<\/a><\/span><\/span>\u00a0to cut out the “Get Your Mojo Goin'” sentiment 3 times (I stacked the 3 layers\u00a0to create a Thickers kind of substantial look) from black card stock. \u00a0I put a layer of Glossy Accents<\/a><\/span><\/span> over top of the letters so they have a great shine too.<\/p>\n

To add a groovy feeling, I added some Maya Road Velvet Blossoms<\/a><\/span><\/span>\u00a0in yellow and red, aligning the flower colors with the tie-dye background paper colors. The flower centers seemed a little empty so I glued in\u00a0black flat back pearls to all of the medium and large flower centers and used black fabric paint for the small flower centers.\u00a0\u00a0Lastly, to add some sparkly\u00a0fun, I used some holographic star\/diamond stickers along the red areas of the tie-dyed background.<\/p>\n

I used a White Sakura Gelly Roll Pen<\/a><\/span><\/span> to sharpen up the white areas of Sassy Charlie’s Union Jack bodice and the following Copic colors to color her up:
\nHair: C7, C9, B32
\nSkin: E000, E00, E11
\nEyeshadow: B00 + clear Wink of Stella
\nHeadband and red dress areas: R14 and R08
\nBlue dress areas and eyes: B24, and B29
\nShoes: C7 and C9
\nWhite shadow areas of sleeves and shoe pom poms: C1<\/p>\n
