Fall Release Teaser - Day 4

It's DAY 4 of the new Fall release and today I have two more Halloween cards to share with you, all from the Littles collection.  All the images will have coordinating dies.  I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured them with copics. 

Introducing the super cute and not scary at all......Littles Mummy and the Tombstone.



The background for this was done with some new Distress Oxide inks and a stencil.  

My next card features Littles Mummy, Frankie and Ghosty, but on my card Ghosty has disappeared - LOL - and just Frankie and Mummy are shown!



The 'boo' is made from an alphabet die that I cut three times and stacked and then I added some enamel dots around the images.  I just LOVE Frankie!!  These "Littles" are so cute and so fast to colour up!!

I have another two more teaser cards tomorrow, so be sure to check back here then.  You can check out the rest of the teasers for today on Blogabella and leave a comment there for a chance to win!  Remember the release day is September 4th.

Fall Release Teaser - Day 3!

It's DAY 3 of the Fall release from Stampingbella and today my card features a new image from the Littles collection....introducing  "Little Witches"....and her sweet little cat.  All the new images will have coordinating dies to cut them out.


I made a shaker card filled with lots of sparkly Halloween coloured sequins.  Here's a photo of it lying flat.  I added some Diamond Dust along with the sequins which is hard to see in the photo but so cool in real life :)




I stamped the images with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured them with copics.  

I have two more teaser cards tomorrow, so be sure to check back here then.  You can check out the rest of the teasers for today on Blogabella and leave a comment there for a chance to win!  Remember the release day is September 4th.

Bellariffic Friday - Inspiration Challenge #8

It's Bellariffic Friday and this week we had another Inspiration Challenge.  



This photo made me think of after school milk and cookies.  It's almost back to school time so I inked up Tiny Townie Penelope has a Pencil and used the colours in the inspiration photo.


I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured her with copics.  I used a white gel pen to add some dots to her shirt.  The strip of "ABC" pattern paper was perfect for the back to school theme and I finished the card off with a trio of enamel dots.


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 Free Form.  So anything you want using a current Stampingbella image.

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 to be featured on Blogabella and for a chance to win $25 in Bella Bucks.  Click here for all the details!

Melinda has a map

I recently made another card for a friend using Melinda has a map.  She's one of the the V2.0 new Uptown Girls.


I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics.  I stamped the sentiment that comes with the image on a fishtail flag and then added a couple of dots.  

I brought it to work to mail and one of my co-workers fell in love with it, so I never did get to mail it to my friend - I'll just have to make another!  That's the problem with these gorgeous images....everyone wants them - LOL.

Bellariffic Friday - Thank You/Thinking of You

It's Bellariffic Friday and this week the challenge was to make a Thank You or Thinking of You card.  It was perfect timing for me as I needed a Thank You card for Danabella!  I've just come back from a lovely visit with her where I spent many hours lounging in the pool....just like my card featuring Tiny Townie Frances Loves to Float!


I stamped the image, along with her sunglasses, flip flops and the sun with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured them all with copics.  I used the coordinating dies to cut them all out and then popped them up on the new Beach Backdrop scene.  I watched Elaineabella's video (click here to view it) on how to colour the beach backdrop and I'm pretty happy how it turned out.  I added some glossy accents to her sunglasses and on the inside I stamped one of the sentiments from the Summer Sentiment Set and another pair of flip flops beside it.


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 Inspiration Challenge 8.  Here's the photo to inspire you.

Happy Birthday Susan

I forgot to post another birthday card from all the July birthdays!


I stamped the image Flowersbehindmybackabella V2.0 with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured her with copics.  I used the coordinating die to cut her out.  Sorry that the photo isn't that great - not sure what happened.

I'll always have your back

I had a little stamping time yesterday and inked up one of the Stuffies, "I'll Always Have Your Back"....such a sweet little image.



I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics.  The paper is MME Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky.  The sentiment that comes with the image is "I'll always have your back" and I stamped that on the inside but forgot to take a photo....and I've mailed the card already - oops.
