Here comes Summer...

... but these gals aren't waiting!!! Shoot, they're already enjoying their little summer treats! A triple scoop ice cream cone, a juicy slice of watermelon AND a twin popsicle too!! SHUT UP! Now that's what I'm talkin' bout!! Yum!!

Yep, you guessed it.. today's Bellarific Friday theme is "Here comes Summer"!! Did you hens play along this Friday? Ooooh, I hope so. I LOVE to look at all those fabby creations over at Bloggabella each Friday.

Ok, so for my little summer card, I used "Turtle Tots Summer Girls" from Stamping Bella. I stamped the gals onto some Choice Buttercream CS and colored them with my Copics. I added some grass at their feet trying my bestest to follow Paulabella's grass tutorial. She's SO talented!! If you'd like to see her tutorial on this technique, I've included a link to it HERE. Ok, so I matted the image with some SU Real Red CS and stitched around the edges. This DP is from October Afternoon's Fly a Kit collection and I matted it with some SU Very Vanilla punched with my Martha Stewart "Pinking Scallop" border punch along the bottom. I added the pretty red grosgrain ribbon and a little clear glaze to their treats with my SUPER DUPER NIFTY NEAT glaze pen that my sistah Paulabella sent me. Mwah! to Paulabella for sending the Chicken goodies! Ok little hens, that's it for me today, I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday and a WONDERFUL weekend! Maybe even add in a sweet treat or two!! Mmmmm - mmmm!

The Bella Babes have the next two Fridays off, as Emily enjoys her vacation abroad!! But we'll be back on the 25th using this wonderful sketch from Jodibella!! Isn't it SUPER?? Ok, so you hens have lots of time to make a card!! Woo-hoo!! Can't wait to see what you come up with. Don't forget to check out the rest of the Bella Babes and the sistahs over at Bloggabella for their take on "Here comes Summer" theme.
