Stamping Bella stamps


Good evening friends, followers and visitors! I can't believe it's February already! I have recently purchased A LOT of Stamping Bella stamps (an American company) easily distinguished by the blue rubber they use for there stamps! I must say the Uptown girls series is my absolute favourite! I have been eyeing these stamps up for a good number of months now. I have only just been able to purchase them. So I stamped and stamped and eventually made a few cards...


My first stamping Bella card using "Faith the fairy" and the matching sentiment. I have added a net trim from my stash and an organza bow made with the bow maker.
 

In my next card I have used "Abigail the Artist" and the matching sentiment. I have added a pleated trim from my stash and matched a bow with a heart button and parcel string to finish.
 
 

This card features "Isabelle loves ice cream" and the matching sentiment. I have matched up a tattered lace ice cream sundae die. I have finished with polka-dot organza ribbon and a satin bow.

Finally we have "Fiona loves flowers" and the matching sentiment. I have added buttons and bows as I made this card specifically for my group's challenge #‎CRAFTY_HINTS 

All images have been hand coloured with Faber Castell polychromos pencils they have then been blended with BABY OIL... (Yes really!) The skin tones are done with pro markers... I still haven't figured out how to get a nice skin tone with the pencils (sob). That wraps things up for tonight thanks for popping by!
