Stamping Bella- Bellarific Friday with Mini Oddball Swimmer And Pug!

Hello my Summery friends!

Today we are sharing older Summery stamps and I've chosen to use Mini Oddball Swimmer and Pug...


I coloured mini Oddball with copics and paper pieced her swim and cap and then masked out. I then cut a rectangular panel and blended Distress Oxides on the panel (using a die to make the beach shape), whilst adding some splashes of water. Once dry, I added white gel and copic multiliner dots. I then stamped over the top some postage stamps. I created a colour stamp using a stamp and sone DP. I then mounted the panel onto a die-cut enlarged postage stamp and then red cardstock. Finally I stamped a sentiment from the Summer Sentiment Set.

Supplies: Stamps (Stamping Bella, PO Stamps); Distress Oxides; Copics; White gel pen; Copic multiliners; Paper (Simple Stories); Dies (Lawn Fawn, PTI; Cardstock (PTI)

Stamping Bella- Bellarific Friday with Bundle Girl With Polar Bear!

Hello!! Happy Friday!!

I can't believe I'm posting a Christmas card in this scorching heat that we're having in the UK!! This week for Bellarific Friday we're making Christmas cards. 

I decided to use Bundle Girl With Polar Bear...


I just LOVE the Bundles, they're SO super cute! Whether they're on Summer cards or Wintery ones like this. Big big heart eyes from me. I used my go-to colours for Bundle and then masked her and the polar bear out so I could blend Distress Oxides over the top and then add some gel pen snow. I then stamped a sentiment from the Be Merry Sentiment Set  and finally added some snowflakes die cut with glitter cardstock.

Stamping Bella- Bellarific Friday with Spec-Tacular Stars and Stripes!

Hello! It's Bellarific Friday and happy 4th July to all our crafting lovelies in the US...

 



Today we had a 4th July celebration over at Stamping Bella! I decided to use Spec-Tacular Stars and Stripes! I coloured up with copics and added white gel pen highlights and silver gel pen on the stars. I cut out the image using Nesties, allowing the balloon to go over the edge. I then used some DPs to create the red/white stripes and used a teeny strip of stars paper under the accompanying sentiment. Finally I added some die-cut stars.

Stamping Bella: Bellarific Friday with Beach Bundle Girl Mermaid's Gift and Beach Bundle Girl With A Floatie!

Hello my sweet summer loving friends!

It's Friday so you know that means Bellarific Friday- yay! This week we had to showcase a stamp from the latest release using another Bella babe's as inspiration- I chose our Elaine

I decided to use the new Beach Bundle Girl Mermaid's Gift and Beach Bundle Girl With A Floatie... 


I stamped out Beach Bundle with the floatie and the Bundle (minus mermaid) from the Beach Bundle Mermaid's Gift set. I coloured both with copics and paper pieced some elements. I then masked them out and created a sea and sky background using a stencil and Distress Oxides. I then adhered the background onto the front of the card blank and then die cut a square aperture into a blank piece of card, stamped the sentiment from the Beach Vibes Sentiment Set and adhered to the front of the card so that the image was centred through the aperture. Finally I added a matching strip of DP.

We've got some fun headed your way this Friday with our latest digital stamp release- the Summer Sun Collection!! 21 of our fun images/sets, brought back to you in digital stamp form.
Everything will be live on the website by 0700 EDT on Friday 26th June.

Stamping Bella- Summer Bundle Girl With A Beachball & Puppy!

 Happy Friday peeps!

Today's card is very apt for the scorching weather we're having in the UK! Yay!

This week's Bellarific challenge was to use this photo inspiration. I decided to use the adorable Summer Bundle Girl With A Beachball & Puppy (minus puppy!)


I coloured Bundle with copics, paper pieced her swimmie and hat and added some white gel pen before fussy cutting. I then created a swimming pool background using Distress Oxides and a stencil before cutting out with a postal die set. I used some red card and sunny paper for the background and then adhered the swimming pool panel. Finally I stamped out a sentiment from the Summer Sentiment Set and die cut an oversized "summer" sentiment and popped up Bundle on 3d foam pads.
