Live Every Day Like it’s Your Birthday

Hello everyone! You may recall that Stamping Bella‘s Stamp of the Month, Edna Loves the Ocean, is 50% off through June 30th. This week we’re featuring other images from the Edna the Fairy Godmother collection.

Stamping Bella Edna with a Cupcake on Top

I chose Edna with a Cupcake on Top. She’s one of my faves.  🙂  I did not use the coordinating die but it is still available in the SB shop at a steep discount as all dies are being discontinued.

Stamping Bella Edna with a Cupcake on Top (close-up)

Copic markers – BG10, BG11, E000, E00, E04, E11, E21, E35, E37, E47, E50, E51, R29, R39, W00, W1

After stamping onto X-Press It Blending Card, I stamped the bottom of the cupcake again onto patterned paper. I cut out the gingham print then adhered over the image, adding shadow with my markers. As a finishing touch, I added a sprinkling of Queen & Company‘s red and blue enamel dots. (Patterned paper is very old.)

NEXT WEEK’S CHALLENGE

Queen & Company’s Donut Shaker Kit

Hello everyone! Today I’m sharing three shaped cards I created using Queen & Company‘s Donut Shaker Kit. I adore Q&C’s kits as they’re so easy and quick to put together. And who doesn’t like receiving a fun shaker card in the mail?

The kit includes Donut shaker dies, Donut outline die, 2×3 stamp set with very cute sentiments, four foam/acetate shakers, four shaped cardstock bases and four envelopes. Die measures approximately 5×5. Shaker elements are sold separately and a Shaped Donut Foam Refill kit is coming soon.

On my first card, I used the donut kit with pretty Happy Hearts patterned paper and Sweet Shop Solids.

After filling with buttons, Pops, Princess Toppings and sequins, I wrapped trim around a die-cut heart and secured over the acetate with Sheer Glue.

On my second card, a chocolate donut, I used Sweet Shop Solids. Isn’t the sentiment cute? So the card/donut wouldn’t look too plain when standing upright, I adhered a variety of epoxy dots over the acetate (outside of the shaker).

Inside, I placed buttons and Princess Cut Toppings.

Lastly, I used my favorite sentiment from the set with Sweet Shop patterned paper and Sweet Shop Solids.

Inside, I placed pink Flower Buttons with a sprinkling of sequins and (currently unavailable) candy toppings. Before adhering the inner circle outline, I tied the tag-shaped sentiment with pink trim.

All of Queen & Company‘s shaker kits are loads of fun and come together quickly and easily. I highly recommend them.  🙂

Thanks so much for visiting today!

Live in the Sunshine

Hi all. This week the Stamping Bella team is sharing creations using the June Stamp of the Month, Edna Loves the Ocean from the Edna the Fairy Godmother collection. The image and sentiment are 50% off through June 30, 2020.

I stamped her onto X-Press It Blending Card, colored with Copic markers and cut her out with sharp craft scissors.

I layered atop a “sun” and a couple strips of coordinating (old) patterned paper scraps. As a finishing touch, I added a bit of zig-zag stitching.

NEXT WEEK’S CHALLENGE

Use a vintage Stamping Bella image, meaning one NOT from the current/most recent release. (If the image is not listed in the “what’s new” category, then it’s considered “vintage.”) All challenge details can be found HERE.

Thanks so much for visiting today!

Grow Your Own Way

Hello everyone. This week with Stamping Bella we are using images from the latest release.

Where Flowers Bloom

Hello everyone!  I have two cards to share today, one for the weekly Stamping Bella challenge and one I posted on Instagram this week.

Here is my card for this week using Fairy and Floral sets from the Littles category with Spring Sentiment.

Stamping Bella Littles Fairy and Floral

We were to use this photo as inpiration:

Such a pretty color scheme!

Stamping Bella Littles Fairy and Floral

Copic markers – BG70, E000, E00, E04, E11, E21, E31, E31, E33, E35, R000, R00, R20, R30, W1, W2, YG91, YG93, YG95, YG97, YG99

I first blended a light background. I stamped all pieces onto X-Press It Blending Card, colored with Copic markers, then die-cut with the coordinating dies. (As all dies are currently on sale/being cleared out of the SB shop, only the Floral dies remain from what I used here.) Once assembled, I tucked a clear foam square behind the fairy’s head and added Kirarina Wink White dots to her dress and sprinkled around the flowers.

Stamping Bella Littles Ice Cream & Lemonade, Sandcastle Set, Palm Tree

Copic markers – BG11, BG13, E000, E00, E04, E11, E21, E30, E31, E33, E35, E37, R000, R00, R20, Y21, YG91, YG93, YG95, YG97

Earlier this week I posted the above card on Instagram. I used Littles Ice Cream & Lemonade with coordinating dies, Sandcastle Set with coordinating dies, Palm Tree with coordinating dies and a Summer Sentiment.

A Single Act of Kindness

Hello everyone. Yet another week has passed. All days seem the same in quarantine. Time is passing by sooooooo slowly. Let’s not dwell on that. It’s depressing anyway. Let’s move on to Stamping Bella‘s challenge this week. We were to create using any set from the Cool Chicks category. I chose Succulent Chicks.

Stamping Bella Succulent Chicks

Copic markers – BG13, BG15, BG18, E07, E08, E09, E31, Y13, Y15, Y17, YG01, YG03, YG06, YG09, YR09, YR18, YR23

I stamped each of these cute chicks onto X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copic markers. I then die-cut each with the coordinating dies and used my Kirarina Wink White Pearl pen to add tiny dots to the pots. (I added the dots after die-cutting because the dots have a bit of dimension and would be flattened going through the die-cutting machine.) To add some bright color, I used a scrap strip of Queen & Company‘s Fruit Basket patterned paper beneath the pots.

As a reminder, Bubble Chicks stamp set is on sale 25% off through 5/31/20.

Stamping Bella Uptown Girls Snapshots Lean on Me

Copic markers – B60, B63, B66, BG10, BG70, BV0000, E000, E00, E04, E07, E08, E09, E11, E21, E31, E35, E40, E79, G21, G24, G46, R00, R01, R20, Y21, YG17

Also this week, I posted Uptown Girls Snapshots Lean on Me on Instagram.  Once colored, I layered over (old) patterned paper and added a few enamel hearts in the corner.

NEXT WEEK’S CHALLENGE

Create using any currently available image from the Stamping Bella Shop and this inspiration photo:

Friends and Honey Pots

Hello everyone. It’s time for another challenge with Stamping Bella. Today the team is featuring older images.  I chose Honey Bear Stuffies.  🙂

Stamping Bella Honey Bear Stuffies

Copic markers – B16, B18, B29, BG10, BG70, E23, E25, E27, E30, E31, E33, E35, E59, R00, R01, R20, W00, W1, W2, Y21, YG03, YG63, YG67, YR23

I think this image and sentiment are the sweetest. I don’t know about you, but I’m missing my drops of honey, especially my mom.

After stamping onto X-Press It Blending Card and coloring with Copic markers, I added a cloud background, taking minimum care not to blend over the bears and branch. Once complete, I stitched onto some light blue gingham patterned paper.

NEXT WEEK’S CHALLENGE

Use an image from the same category as the May Stamp of the Month, Bubble Chicks (which is 25% off through 5/31/2020). In other words, use any image from the Cool Chicks category.  All challenge details can be found HERE.

Thanks so much for visiting today!
