Have a Magical Day

Hello!  Sorry for the lag between posts…It’s been a bit busy here, but I wanted to take a break for this week’s sketch challenge over at SCS.

I thought Stamping Bella’s Grumpabella was perfect for this week’s layout.  (And I just LOVE her expression…I think we can all relate!)

I wanted her robe to match the background paper, but there wasn’t a tiny enough print in this Cosmo Cricket Little Girls paper pack.  So I used the label sheet, you know the one that shows what patterns are in the package.  I stamped the robe part onto the one little square with the same pattern as the background.  Then I stamped the little cup onto a different square.  I got a bit lucky…the robe barely fit.  I have to say this was not my idea.  I saw someone else do it and I’m sorry, but I can’t remember who.

I “borrowed” a little bobby pin from my daughter’s stash and colored it black with a Copic marker.  The bit of twill was also colored with a Copic.

One last bit of news…I’m so excited to have been selected as part of the All That Scraps design team!  I look forward to getting to know and working with these talented ladies: Jenn Diercks, Jennifer Ofiana, Julie Buhler, Sophia Landry , Valerie Stangle, Amy Rysavy and Lauren Meader.  (Thanks so much, Amy!!!) :)

Thanks for stopping by!!

    Congratulations Michele! Your work inspires and keeps newbies like me intrigued in the world of stamping! :) One question for you, what color copic marker are you using on all the bella shading/outline? It’s a great effect…!
