Hello again! I’m back today with my last five samples from Stamping Bella‘s latest release, and at the end is my challenge card for this week. (I have been a very busy girl.) You can see all of the fun new images and dies in the store HERE.
All images were stamped onto X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers. Specific markers used are listed beneath each close-up photo.
First, I have Curvy Girl Gardener. After coloring her overalls, I dampend a scrap of denim with Blending Solution then pressed the cloth onto the pants, holding the cloth in place for several seconds, creating a denim “pattern” over my coloring. It’s a fun (and easy) technique!
I added some die-cut Mini Bloomers 2 and Bloomers Greenery from Taylored Expressions. I also used my Tiny Attacher at the bottom corner of the sentiment block.
Next is Gnomes with a Secret. I think they’re funny. 🙂
I placed pretty patterned (sale) paper from Papertrey Ink inside a round stitched frame by Taylored Expressions.
Above, I used The Gnome and the Letter.
I added a sprinkling of tiny hearts and again used my Tiny Attacher.
Next is Tiny Townie Big Sister. So very sweet. 🙂
I added zig-zag stitching around and also added tiny white dots to the baby’s blanket.
If there’s a Tiny Townie Big Sister, you know there has to be a Tiny Townie Big Brother.
Once colored, I adhered a thin strip of patterned paper across the top and drew hanging lines for Paper Smooches’ Teeny Stars. Every other star is popped up on clear foam squares.
And if you’re still with me, which I hope you are, I have this week’s challenge card. We were to use an older image.
I chose Tiny Townie Rachel Love the Rain.
I gave her a bright green dress and pretty pink dotted umbrella. 🙂
