Sending love on your birthday

 

Hello,

This week I got out a few stamping bella images and had a play.

I used this bella image with heart balloons to create a birthday card. This image is so versatile, it could be used for Valentine's too.

I coloured it with spectrum noirs and matches to prima marketing Georgia blue papers. I stamped the matching sentiment and added ribbon, lace, flowers and pearls.

Crafty Bella

 

Hello,

Today I have a birthday card to share I made for a crafty blog friend. Her birthday was earlier this month so I know I can now share it.

I love using my circle dies, they are my most used dies wether it is just for stamping an image or creating a sketch like this. I think having circles rather than straight lines all the time is nice for a change, plus you can showcase different patterned papers without it getting overwhelming.

I used some studio light papers, even embossed a few to add texture. I added sequins, ribbon and a bow to embellish.

The image is Calissta loves to craft, an uptown girl by stamping bella, coloured with Promarkers. I use this image a lot for crafty friends birthdays.

Petunia and her Wreath

 

Hello,

I haven't had much to share this week as I've been busy needle felting, which I'm sure I will share soon.

Today I have a card to share using this beautiful stamping bella image, Petunia and wreath. Petunia is my favourite SB character and I love this Christmas image of her and her wreath.

I used the sketch from the Bellarific Friday challenge a few weeks ago. The papers came from Nitwit collections Christmas tapestry range, matted on copper mirror card. I also used the matching sentiment.

My image is coloured with Promarkers. I finished with green gems.

Edna with Chocolate Shaker

 

Hello,

Today I have a card to share that I entered into last weeks Stamping bella Bellarific Friday challenge which was Make a shaker card. 

This is pretty new to me. I made a few shakers about ten years ago and could never get along with them. I think I've come a fair way since then so can happily admit they weren't very good!

For this one, I used my circular dies and used SB image, Edna with chocolate. The matching sentiment is also there, but in the photo is hidden with sequins. I used Nitwit collections grin and bear it papers and used pale pink sequins. I added flowers to finish.

Challenges:

Hello,

Today i have a wedding card to share featuring two stamping bella stamps.

My first is the main image of a wedding couple, the second is the sentiment which came from the Close up wedding stamp. I love this sentiment it has to be my favorite. I use it rather than Congratulations as that can get a bit boring over time.
