Happy Halloween

Today's card uses one of those sweet PI girls that I adore - Pumpkin Patch Girl.

I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics.  I added some of Bella's Grounds and Grasses around her.  The paper is Lilybeedesign Autumn Spice and I paper pieced her little sweater.  I added some twine with a small button at the top.  The clouds were sponged on.  I hope everyone has a fun Halloween.

Bellariffic Friday...on a Sunday - Sketch 21

I'm a couple of days late with Bellariffic Friday.  This week we had Mojobella Sketch 21 to work with.

It was a wet, rainy day here today so I inked up Tiny Townie Rachel Loves The Rain which seemed appropriate except I coloured her with bright sunny colours. 

I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured her with copics.  I used the matching Cut It Out die.  The paper is old SU pattern paper.  I added glossy accents to the puddle and Wink of Stella to her umbrella.  A few enamel dots finished it off.

Be sure to check out the rest of the BellaBabes and the Sistah's cards for this week on Blogabella.  Next week's Bellariffic Friday challenge is Make a Tag.

We hope you'll get stamping with us. It's easy to play along - just ink up any current (check the website) Stamping Bella image, and email your card to Emily by next Thursday for a chance to win some Bella Bucks.

Bellariffic Friday - Inspiration Challenge 7

It's Bellariffic Friday and this week we had another great photo to use as our inspiration.

I took the rich fall colours and inked up Tiny Townie Patricia Loves Pumpkins.

I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics.  The paper is Elegant Eggplant with some scraps that I stamped dots and stripes on.  I also took inspiration from two of my fellow babes, Michele and Faye.  They always have such great layouts so I copied Faye's doodling, and Michele's assorted fishtail flags.  This team is full of talent!  I added some Wink of Stella to her dress and tights and a few sequins.

On the inside I used the fun sentiment that comes with the image.

Bellariffic Friday - Mojobella Sketch 20

It's Bellariffic Friday and this week we have Mojobella Sketch 20 to work with.  I used another new image, Balloonabella 2.0 on this card for my friend Christal.

I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics.  I used the co-ordinating cut it out die to cut it out perfectly!  The paper is Doodlebug Design "Sunkissed" and I embossed the purple cardstock with the Perfect Polkadots embossing folder.  I added a few rhinestones on the sentiment that comes with the image and some Wink of Stella to the balloons.  I used my white gel pen to add some dimension to them too.
