I'm so excited right now - not just about my whole new gig that I posted about last night - but also about the fact that Tim's taking me on a date this afternoon! An afternoon and evening away from the kids, some shopping, and hopefully dinner and a movie - oh YEAH baby!! I've been desperate to get away for a bit and this afternoon can't come fast enough!!

So here's a couple more Bella cards I made using this this Chatterbox patterned paper and Prima hydrangeas (you can see the first one I made here)
Some wonderful peeps had sent me some stamped images of Tinkerbella - and after playing with them a few times I HAD to buy her for myself! I also bought the Bella sentiment that says "Have a magical day" but for this card (and all the other ones I did and have yet to share!) I used one of my new A Muse sentiments.
This is another "tent topper" card. The card itself measures 4.25" square, then the "topper" is adhered just shy of making it 5.5x4.25 so it will still fit in a standard A2 envelope.
I used Copic markers to color in the Bella, then pulled out some White Opal Liquid pearls and used it to dot the centers of the flowers and fill in the centers of the hydrangeas. This was the first time I've ever used this stuff and I really like it! I have some in purple too and I think I'm going to have to get more colors.......
I used Icicle stickles for her wings and wand - she wouldn't be complete without some bling!
The circle and scalloped circle are Marvy Mega and Giga punches.
I did some faux stitching on the edge of the pink card stock strip, then added some organdy ribbon (retired from SU!) and that was it!

For this one I used the Bridalpartybellas stamp (and A Muse sentiment of course!) on Papertrey white CS.
I stamped each Bella on the end onto scraps of the patterned paper, cut out just their dresses then adhered them over the stamped images (paper-piecing). Everything else was colored in with Copic markers.
I used Coffee Ice Ice Stickles on their hair an dresses for some bling.
The Prima flowers are attached with Bazzill brads, and the ribbon is the new SU! wide grosgrain (I LOVE that stuff!! It's so silky and ties wonderfully).
