The Blog that Spike Built

I couldn’t believe it! I finally got my FIRST BELLA! Oh the fun! It was completely by accident but I was thrilled by far! I picked up a 3 of them from a local gal that was selling some stamps off!!! You wouldn’t believe the agony of sitting through work knowing that I had this bella waiting to be inked and stamped! You know I’d even thought of sticking her on the bottom of a beaker at work to stamp the first image. Oh but you know that I wouldn’t do that to her! She deserves so much more!

I found the perfect challenge on 2 Sketches 4 You.

Here’s Laura’s sketch, if you’d like to know more about the challenge click on the sketch.

Here’s my take on the sketch with my new Bella!! (can’t you tell I’m just a little excited!)

Here’s what I used:
Cardstock: Bazzil, CTMH Blue, White Daisy
Stamps: Snowbunnybella *teehee*, CTMH Make it a Simple Christmas, Festive Thoughts, Playful Flourishes
Ink: CTMH Outdoor Denim, Crystal Blue, Brilliance Moonlight White, Opalite Glacier Blue, Versamark, Bics
Embellishments: Blueberry Ice Stickles, Embossing Glitter, Embossing Powder, Blue Ribbon, Cuttlebug Snowflakes

For something different, I took a cotton swab with Opalite Glacier Blue re-inker and accentuated the Cuttlebug embossed snowflakes.

What do you think? *squeal* I’m still giddy! LOL Yes, I’m a little addicted!!

Everyone enjoy your Friday!!

Love,
