Hoppin’ with Lulu

Published by Michele Boyer at 11:00 am under My Designs, Stamping Bella

Hi everyone!  It’s time for another hop sponsored by Stamping Bella.   This time everyone is using images from the Lulu Collection.  :)   If you’re just popping in here, you may want to go back to the beginning with Emily/Blogabella.

Awwww Shucks

     SBAS3
This is Henrietta.  I think she’s so sweet. 

I had a bit of a challenge with the trim on her dress.  I wanted the balls to be red so I colored over the black with an opaque white pen (a couple times), colored over the white with a red marker and lastly a clear 3-d glaze pen.

SBASIN

I finished the inside very simply and continued the sentiment there.

Layout is from an older MFT sketch.

How about a prize? The folks at Stamping Bella have decided to hide a prize somewhere along the hop! One pre-selected blogger will draw a random winner from the comments on her post, and the winner will receive a $25 Gift Voucher to Stamping Bella!!!  The fun part is…we’re not telling you who it is! So as you hop, make sure you leave comments on every post so you have a chance to win!!  The winner will be announced on Monday in the Splitcoast forum. 
Your next stop in the hop is with Jane. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a great day!

(Just in case there’s a break in the chain, Shannan has a master list of hop participants here.)

    Michelle,
    Great card, and wanted to also add that loved your Halloween treat project yesterday. Also I have been laughing out loud at the stories you have shared about shopping with your kids and creating a birthday card with your daughter. I could totally relate and it was fun to hear we are not alone in the day to day “challenges” with our kids. Thanks for making them fond memories after we make it through the moment! TFS
