You're the apple of my eye!

Well hey there and welcome to The Spotted Chick. I'm hop number 55 in the Stamping Bella Birthday Bash Blop Hop sponsored by Stamping Bella! Whew! I sure hope you're not all tuckered out after all that hoppin'. But, if you are, you're more than welcome to sit a spell right here. I just LOVE company!! If you've hopped over from Bella's blog, My Little Life, you're on the right track and hoppin' like a PRO!! If you've just popped in for a visit and wanna hop along with the rest of us, you can CLICK HERE to start from the beginning at Bloggabella. Come on and join the fun!! HOP-HOP-HOP along...


So, whaddaya think of my little Appley bowl Huggabug?? Isn't she adorable?? I've been so anxious to show you this card. I just love it! I hope you do too! I started by stamping Appley bowl onto some SU Natural Ivory CS and colored her with my Copics. I used my circle Nesties to cut her out with and embossed the edges as well. I also used my petite scalloped Nesties for the mats with a few dimensionals in between the layers. This DP is from October Afternoon and I knew when I saw the apples, this was the PERFECT paper to use with Appley bowl. I stitched the DP onto the SU Real Red CS and then used my pinking shears to trim the edges of the bottom piece. I adhered both matted DP's to the cardbase of SU Natural Ivory and then placed my little Appley bowl in the center. To finish, I added this great natural twill ribbon tied in a sweet little bow. Isn't she a cutie patootie???


Well, that's it for me today... be sure to leave a comment below and let me know what you think of her, ok? Comments are VERY important today... WHY you ask??
