<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hello - I just want to update you regarding my blog. Instagram seems to be the place to be now to showcase blogging life. I will still be making lots of cards but will be showing them on my Instagram account now, rather than here on my blog. I hope you'll follow me there. You can find me at "<b>lesliesgoodimpressions</b>". </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I think today is the first Bellariffic Friday of 2018, well I hope so because I'm using all Stamping Bella images :)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Today's card features the Littles collection. I wanted to make it look like a skating party so used the <a href="http://stampingbella.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1075&search=skating+rink" target="_blank">Skating Rink Backdrop</a>, The <a href="http://stampingbella.com/shop/index.php?route=product/search&search=figure%20skaters" target="_blank">Littles Figure Skaters</a> and for the tiny little penguin I used on of the images from the <a href="http://stampingbella.com/shop/index.php?route=product/search&search=skating%20quartet" target="_blank">Little Bits Skating Quartet</a>. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I stamped the background with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured it with copics. It was really super fast to colour up. Next I stamped the skaters and the penguin and used the coordinating dies to cut them out.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I popped them up for some dimension and added a bow to the top of the card - I think it looks like a picture now :)</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo black ink onto Bella’sBestest paper and coloured her with copics. I popped her up onto a scalloped die and added the sentiment on a fishtail flag.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: helvetica neue, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The layout is from an old 2015 Stampin' Up catalogue. I used one of their new silver foil snowflakes behind the image.

Another super easy card to duplicate, assembly line style!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The card base is sprayed with shimmer mist - can't seem to stop using that! I stamped a few random small snowflakes in white ink and added a tiny dot of red stickles to the middle of each one. Then I used some sparkly red glitter paper to die cut some snowflakes (Tim Holtz) and added them to a bit of ribbon. I put a sparkly dot in the middle of each of the snowflakes, stamped the sentiment (SU) and that's another card ready to go. </span><br />

I looked through the Holiday Catalogue and found one! This is totally CASED from page 36 :). </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I used some silver cord instead of the trim they used and found a great pack of metalic designer paper at Michael's. I sprayed the card base with some shimmer mist and it really is quite lovely in real life - so sparkly. There were a few steps but once I got my assembly line going, I was able to crank out 24 of these - half in bronze and half in silver. I added a few sequins to finish it off.</span><br />
