Hi everyone! I’m back today sharing another of Stamping Bella‘s upcoming releases, Christmas Morning Chicks. This was so fun to color. It reminded me of one of those Highlights Magazine pages where you search for the pictures. As I colored, I kept finding chicks tucked here and there. haha.  So cute.

I went with untraditional colors as this image could actually be used for more than just Christmas. I stamped onto X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers. Once colored, I added sparkle and shine to some areas using a clear Wink of Stella brush.

Be sure to check out the Stamping Bella blog later this morning for more samples using this cute image plus another!  🙂

Copics used: BG10, BG11, BG13, BG18, BG75, BG78, V15, E50, B24, B28, Y21, YR23, YR14. Finished size 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″.

Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing another sample from Stamping Bella‘s August 17 release as well as a card for Bellarific Friday!  Let’s get to the new release first! 🙂

Today I’ve used Tiny Townie Jenny Feels Joyful. (So cute!!)

After stamping onto X-Press It Blending Card, I colored with Copics, adding clear Wink of Stella glitter (brush) over the ribbons and JOY letters. Tiny white dots were added to the red gift using a Kirarina White Pearl pen.

Check out the Stamping Bella blog a little later today to see more samples featuring Jenny!  Also, don’t forget to leave a comment on the Stamping Bella (blog) new release post for your chance to win her!  🙂

Now, onto Bellarific Friday!  Last week’s challenge was a sketch, which I *totally* stuck to this time.  🙂

I used Tiny Townie Bree Loves Buttercream.  I stamped her onto X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers, then added tiny white dots to the top of her dress using a White Pearl Kirarina pen.

I die-cut a circle around her, allowing the top of her head and the cake to extend past the circle’s edge. I also placed small foam squares behind the extending parts to add a bit of dimension to the image.

Next week we have a color challenge. (Inspiration photo below.)

Create a card or project using the inspiration photo and any current Stamping Bella image then email your card to Emily by next Thursday to be entered to win some Bella Bucks!  (All challenge details can be found HERE.)

Hi everyone!  Today I am combining my Stamping Bella new release sample with Bellarific Friday, so I have two cards to share.  🙂

First, my new release sample!  Meet Tiny Townie Willow the Witch. Isn’t she cute? And how about those ghosty chicks??  EEK!  🙂

As always, I’ve stamped onto X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers.

I think those chicks are a HOOT!

Now for Bellarific Friday.  🙂

Last week’s challenge was to use buttons, bows or sequins. That’s easy, right? We’re also using the August Stamp of the Month, Uptown Betty Loves Books. She’s 20% off through August 31st.

She was stamped onto X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers. The sentiment is from Paper Smooches’ Bosom Buddy stamp set.

Next week’s challenge is a sketch:

Create a card or project using the sketch and any current Stamping Bella image then email your card to Emily by next Thursday to be entered to win some Bella Bucks!  (All challenge details can be found HERE.)
