I'm just a little dingy over you!!

... so whaddaya think of my Captain Stella and her little dingy!! I thought this could make a great Valentine's card so that's what I went with. Hey, I gotta be creative right? You can't go wrong with Stella for Valentine's Day. Her and her big 'ol red lips!! I just love the whole Stella line over at Stamping Bella.


I began my card by stamping Stella onto some Strathmore CS and colored her with my Copics. When I was finished, I cut her out with an Exacto knife and then began creating the layout. All four DP's used are from the "love me do" collection from My Minds Eye. LOVE this collection!! I know I say that about all their papers but it's SO true. They have such AWESOME paper collections!! Ok, so I began with this great cloud paper and then I added coordinating papers for the horizon and waves. The waves are cut with my Jumbo Marvy circle punch and I only punched just the edge. Next, I added the horizon paper and then stitched it to some SU Real Red CS. I added Stella and the first wave paper using a few dimensionals and then I stitched the top wave paper and added it on top. I adhered the entire piece to the white card base and added the sentiment and hearts from the die cut sheet included in the paper pack. To finish I added some gold Stickles to her crown and shoes and I tied this red saddle stitched ribbon in a cute little bow. Now isn't that a cutie patootie Valentine card? SWAK!!! Be sure to leave a comment below and let me know what you think of her. Have a SUPER DUPER Tuesday.

Supplies:
Rubber stamps - Captain Stella and her little Dingy from Stamping Bella; DP - Love me do from My Minds Eye; Copics; Ribbon - Red Saddle Stitched Grosgrain; Gold Stickles; Glamour Dust; Marvy Jumbo Circle Punch
