nope, paula is still not caught up with "life" and here is my slightly late BellaRIFFIC friday post. Geesh, I am a gluton for punishment too because I am fixin' to paint my livingroom and hallway in a gorjuss shade of brown. Yeah, that and I gotta make time to work on some *NEW* release images from Stamping Bella!! woohoo You heard me right friends, Emily has some new rubber up her sleeve and it will be unleashed next friday.
Lets finish up this week with a peek at what I did for the subtle "polka-dotty challenge", shall we?
I used Baboo's owl, I colored him last weekend at Emily's. I had been eyeing him for some time now, and I always thought...next time, next time. Next time arrived and I stamped Baboo out {on Bella's bestest paper, of course!}and waited for his time to be colored. {don't ask, it sounds odd, I just color by mood, lol}
Baboo got tucked away into my supply bin and headed for a journey, to see Bellaland. In my mind I had thought greens and browns, I really wanted to use this piece of new Cosmo Cricket paper. While Emily played with her encaustic {google it!} waxy stuff, I watched and safely colored, across the table. Baboo came to life with my prismacolor pencils and I even dared to risk my coloring with an added branch. I colored the sky in with muted turqouise and added white dots {with a white glaze pen} and glitter.
Now, I kept my dots subtle, but WOW! the sistahood has gone wild with dots, spots and circles. Just in case you have not seen our fab-u-luss line-up, check out Emily's blog...HERE.
There are more and more new names popping up and joining the fun, so how about another challenge for next week that is as easy as eating pie! It's a release day next friday, so all the Bella wants to see is your most bestest work, with a Bella stamp. Is there something you been itchin' to get to? Maybe just somethin' you have colored and wanna try a different color scheme?? Come on and join us. Us Babe's, we'll be showing off all the newest rubber!
ok, did I mention I am prepping to paint...oh, yeah, I better het to removing the dust bunnies that were hiding around a few pictures. Does the maid think I will never find them? adios!
