Stamping Bella new release!


This is a VERY exciting week for Stamping Bella!  Not only are there three new Uptown Girls and two Mo Manning stamps, we have a new artist joining the Bella family - Diane Duda with four new stamps!  And they are ALL gorgeous!  Check out all the sneak peeks on Bloggabella here!  They will be available in store on Monday (or perhaps a little earlier - I'll let you know if so!).

So, I am going to show you my card using one of the new Uptown Girls called Opal the Optimist...





Oh, that's me on a Friday night out - well, less skinny and not so tall though!  I matched her up with Sara Schmutz Nursery Rhymes digi papers.  I used my Nestie to die cut the heart out of the paper then popped it on foam pads to give some depth.  I stamped the matching sentiment onto a MFT DieNamics Designer Label 4 stax die cut.   I am entering my card into the Simon Says Stamp anything goes challenge.

I can see I'll be using this lady a lot!  I'm off now but I will be back tomorrow with my Bellarific Friday card using one of the other Uptown Girl newbies!

  26. What a beautiful lovely card is this.

    I love your flowers and leaves.
    Witch dies did you use for the leaves?

    I am always amazed how great your cutting is of the images.
    And this one is so fine it will take me years to have the patient to do that.

    Have a wonderful day!!!
