Stamping Bella Halloween Showcase with Little Ghostly Cutie Fun!!

Hey! Happy Halloween!

Over at Stamping Bella we are having a Halloween spectacular!! I've decided to showcase Little Cutie Ghostly Fun from the latest release...

 

I coloured Little Ghostly with copics and then masked out so I could blend Distress Oxides through a square stencil. I then cut some bats from black cardstock and adhered to the image. I then stamped a sentiment from the Wicked Words Sentiment Set (also new release) and then finally added a strip of DP.

Stamping Bella Bellarific Friday with Curvy Girl Loves Halloween and Pumpkin Patch Hut Backdrop!

 Hello my crafty friends,

Today I am sharing an image from the latest release, Pumpkin Patch Hut Backdrop along with Curvy Girl Loves Halloween...


Love that Curvy Girl has been out picking her pumpkin! Now she's ready for that Halloween paaaarty! I coloured Curvy and the Backdrop with copics. I then cut round the Backdrop with a circular die and fussy cut Curvy. I then die-cut a web and spider from black cardstock. I assembled all the pieces along with a stripy strip of paper that I placed at the bottom of the card. Finally I stamped one of the sentiments that come with Curvy Girl.

Stamping Bella Bellarific Friday with Knitting Dandies!

 Happy Friday peeps!

Today I'm sharing the sweetest stamp for this week's Bellarific Friday ... it's Knitting Dandies!


This week's Bellarific theme was autumn or Halloween. I decided to go with a snuggly autumn theme by using Knitting Dandies. I coloured the dandies with copics and added some white gel pen and copic multiliners- they're so fun to colour!! I then masked the lions out and then blended some Distress Oxides through a knitted style stencil behind them. I then stamped out the accompanying sentiment which is SO cute!

Supplies: Stamps (Stamping Bella); Copics; Stencil (Honey Bee?); White gel pen; Copic multiliners

Stamping Bella Bellarific Friday with Uptownie Greta Loves To Garden!

Hello my crafting lovelies!

Today is Friday so that can only mean one thing-it's Bellarific Friday!!

Today we had to share an older stamp (not from the latest release) with an autumnal/Halloween theme..

 

Part of autumn always make me think of harvest festivals so I thought I'd use Uptownie Greta Loves To Garden with her big harvest haul. I coloured her with copics and did some paper piecing and the fussy cut out. I then created a scene behind her from where she's been picking some of those flowers as well as veg! I die cut the scene using different shades of cardstock and then used some patterned paper to give the impression of concrete walls and the wood for the box. I then assembled all the pieces and raised Greta up on 3d foam pads. Finally I stamped out a sentiment from the Garden Sentiment Set.

Catherine Pooler: Bold Bits And Patterns Stamp Set!

Hello my crafty friends!

Something a little different from me today using Catherine Pooler stamps. I'm not much of a clean and simple girl as I love colouring too much for occasionally I like to create some simple cards especially for male birthdays ..



I used the Bold Bits And Patterns stamp set with a variety of Distress Oxides. I got my inspiration from the Catherine Pooler website as I was out of my comfort zone a bit! I then added a stamped sentiment word strip and some sparkly enamel dots.

So quick and easy for effective I think! See you Friday x
