I hope that your weekend was as productive as mine was. I spent a good part of the day away from home on saturday, but I got those couple things done that I wanted to do on monday, but was to sick to leave the house.
Saturday night I retired to "my room" and worked on this card, Stamping Bella's Charm Bracelet. It had been a work in progress during the week, and I didn't like the way the progress was taking me...LOL {the first colored twinchie went into the trash} I had this vision in my head of how I had wanted to do this. I was aiming for something modern and artsy. I wanted to reallllly use that piece of yellow Crate Paper and I came up with a color scheme that is a bit different from what I have been doing. {yes, I have been in a rut with those aqua shades! lol} I never make my own patterned paper and I thought pieces of the charm bracelet might be cool. All in all I think I have been staring at this for too long now and need to look at it in a few days. {I don't normally work on something for several days in a row}
Like I said, the Bracelet is stamped on one of Bella's Twinchies. I think they just make something artsy because it's a different, heavy piece of mat board, something you wanna showcase! I used my versafine ink and then stamped the bracelet itself all over some pale pink Bazzill cs. {on the backside, it's smoother} Then I matched up my bracelet pattern on the twinchie, to the pattern on the cs and cut a on inch border around the twinchie. I picked the heart charm and the 'I love you' sentiment & added glitter to the heart. WOW, that is a nice bow I made too, don't ya think?? {I know what you're thinking...she looks like she's in a brown mood now! haha}
Today {sunday} I worked on my BellaRIFFIC card for friday...it's a sketch! Did ya check it out? So simple and pretty! I just loved it when I saw it and my card is emailed to da Bella! Play along and get an Easter card or something stunning made and maybe you could win some Bella Bucks. {I myself made mine into a Christmas card...yup, it's almost April...time to get cracking!!} See ya kids soon!
Sistah this is fantastic I LOVE how you used the twinchie with this image!!
