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

Some Odd Girl!

 Hello! I made this Some Odd Girl card absolutely ages ago but forgot to post it...



I coloured with copics and then masked her out whilst I created a Distress Oxide background. I then stamped a background stamp in coloured ink. I added a strip of stripey paper and then added a die cut "hello" and a stamped sentiment in matching ink. Finally I added some enamel dots.

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

Stamping Bella: Bellarific Friday with Scaredy Owl!

Hello peeps!

Today's Bellarific Friday was a sketch inspiration and I decided to use Scaredy Owl!...

 


I love this stamp set SO much, it's so fun! I coloured with copics and then fussy cut out. I then followed the sketch but using different DPs and layered them with a square of burnt orange cardstock. I then created a scalloped double layered circle and stamped the sentiment on from the Frightful And Delightful Sentiment Set. Finally I added some stamped out Halloween word strips.

Papertrey Ink: Special Guy!

Hello! I'm sharing another male card today using some Papertrey Ink products. I used Special Guy stamp set, Baseball T die and Special Guy Stencil Collection...


 I die cut the shirt using white and green cardstock. I then stencilled a design on the front before stamping a sentiment from the Special Guy stamp set. I added a little printed "in law" to personalise my card. I then simply layered up on a panelled wood design piece of paper on kraft cardstock.

Super quick and easy striking male card! Yay!
