Bellarific Friday May 4, 2012

Hello Readers :-)

These are my entries for the May 4,2012 bellarific friday over at Stampingbella's blog.  This weeks challenge was this sketch

FYI it's my first time participating for bellarific friday though I have been a fan of the bella's community for a few months now...so I'm totally jazzed with myself that I made not just one, but TWO entries!!

For this first entry for Bellarific Friday May 4, 2012 I used paper from My Mind's Eye: Lost & Found Two Sunshine (6x6 size) by Jen Allyson and the JaneGirl Stamp designed by Jane Davenport for Stampingbella. I kept the background size 6x6, so that this could just be a piece to display. This is still in progress...I want to give it some bling and maybe a flower....not sure if I'm completely happy with the sentiment framing and placement yet either, but I am loving this piece so far!

For my second entry I started with a white (5.25x5.25) square card from Magenta and used paper from My Mind's Eye: Miss Caroline Dolled Up (6x6 size) by Jen Allyson. The stamp is Ramona and teddy in their balloon (incl sentiment) designed by Amariah Rauscher for Stampingbella. I used Copics and MEMENTO Dual tipped markers to color in the image. This card is so bright and happy and makes me smile every time I see it...I don't think I'm going to be able to give it to anyone unless I make another!
