my LOVE runneth over....

Hey there lil' hens!! Know what today is???? Uh-huh, it's Bellarific Friday and today's theme is Bella or Stella!! Woo-hooo!! Well, that's a no brainer for this hen.... Ya'll know what a sucker I am for Stella!! Ain't she a hoot??

Now, I've had this idea in my head for awhile, on how I was gonna use this image, so I was thrilled when I heard what this week's Bellarific Friday challenge was.

So I started by stamping "Stella doing a balancing act" from Stamping Bella onto some Bella's Bestest Paper and colored her with my Copics. I cut her out with my Circle Nesties and sponged some chalk ink around the edges. I matted her with some SU Expresso CS, cut out with my Scalloped Circle Nesties and adhered the image to this great DP from Pink Paislee. I used my EK Success border punch on the vertical border and adhered the computer generated sentiment underneath the button tied with twine. To finish, I added some shine to those ruby red lips with my Sakura glaze pen and added some bubbles to her bathtub as well. Remember me tellin you hens on Wednesday about the new Viva Decor products? Well, I used the new Pearl Pen for the bubbles in Stella's tub. To do this, I actually applied about a dozen or so little dots onto a piece of wax paper and let them dry overnight. Then I popped them off, with no trouble at all, and adhered them to the image with my Quickie Glue pen. Super simple and they look like real pearl embelishments too (uh, make that bubbles)!! Ok, that does it for me today, be sure to leave a cluck below and let me know what ya think, k? Ready for some more Stella and Bella creations???? Head on over to Bloggabella and see what the rest of da Bella Babes and the Sistahood have come up with. I hope you hens have a FABBY Friday and I'll see ya back in the hen house bright n early tomorrow morning!
