Bellariffic Friday - Stitch It Up

It's Bellariffic Friday and this week the challenge was to "Stitch It Up"....sewing, faux sewing, anything stitchy.  I went with some basic sewing to let the Uptown Girls stand out.

 

I stamped Belinda and Bernadette onto Bella's Bestest paper with Memento Tuxedo black ink and coloured them with copics.  These two remind me SO much of my two sweet friends...Karen and Dana.  That's Karen on the left and Dana on the right and they have been SO supportive and encouraging in my stamping life and my personal life - mwah to you both :)  I used some of their favourite colours for their clothes and I think I got their hair colour almost perfect!  The Wonky Border die-namic was perfect for sponging some clouds in the sky.
 

On the inside I stamped the sentiment that comes with the image and added a small flower for a pop of colour.

Here are the copics I used.
 

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 another sketch (#10). 

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. 

Cheerio.....Leslie
