Stamping Bella- Bellarific Friday with Sweet Mushroom Hedgie!

Hello! Today's Bellarific Friday theme was to use a stamp from the latest release! I decided to use Sweet Mushroom Hedgie!


Though I made an autumnal card here, hedgie can easily be adapted for a winter or spring card as well depending on the background you create! I coloured hedgie with copics and did some white gel pen on his nose. I then fussy cut out. I then created a layered scene using some background papers and some die-cut leaves. I stamped out a sentiment from the Autumn Sentiment Set.

Lawn Fawn- Let There Be Peas On Earth!

I LOVE these teeny peas! So super cute!!


 I stamped out the peas and coloured them with copics, adding white gel pen highlights. I then die cut. I then created the background using MFT paper and a circle of cardstock so I could arrange the peas easily in a circle. I stamped the accompanying sentiment in the middle and then once I had assembled the card, I added the stamped musical notes. I must give a shout out here as I cased my design- thank you Terri!

Lili Of The Valley- Window Seat!

I just love these old-style LOTV stamps, particularly the Christmas ones so I've managed to make a nice set of them this year. 

The one I'm showcasing today is Window Seat...  


I coloured with copics and added white gel pen and white coloured pencil. I then die-cut into a lovely arch shape to echo the window. I layered up on some DP and then added a snowflake die-cut strip at the base of the image. I then added a die-cut sentiment banner and some teeny die-cut snowflakes. Such an adorable couple!

Gorjuss- snow much fun!

Hello! Have you had any snow yet? We had some last week which was a bit unexpected and very early for the UK!

Today I thought I'd share another Gorjuss Christmas stamp coloured with polychromos to make this mini card....

I coloured with polychromos on grey paper and added some white gel pen highlights. I then added a die-cut glitter frame and some teeny stars. Finally I heat embossed a sentiment to accompany the "snow" die-cut. Super cute!

Stamping Bella Bellarific Friday- Apple Cider Oddball!

This week the Bellas had a colour inspiration photo to use for Bellarific Friday. I decided to showcase Apple Cider Oddball to match those gorgeous autumnal colours... 




Such a fun autumn card and such a different image to traditional autumnal leafy images- love it!! I coloured Apple Cider Oddball with copics and fussy cut her out. I then created a background using papers inspired by the sketch. I'm finding I'm doing paper layering a bit more at the moment- was definitely my old style so it's nice to revisit a style when you're inspired. I then stamped the sentiment and cut it up so I could arrange each section in a pleasing way. Finally I added Oddball on some 3d foam pads and some big sequins.


Here was our inspiration photo:


So that's me for this week! See you next week for another Bellarific Friday! Don't forget to check out the other DT designs on the blog and comment for your chance to win a voucher!!
