We're havin' a HEAT WAVE...
Oh, wait a minute.... that's not today's theme! Hmmmm??? What was the theme for today's Bellarific Friday again??? Gosh, I wouldn't know, CUZ' IT'S SO STINKIN HOT here in Florida, my brain is FRIED!! Ok-ok, yeah I remember what the theme was, "SNOW". Pffft! WHATEVER!! I can only wish for that, but at least it's fun to look at here on my card, even if I'll NEVER actually see it here!
So for my card today I chose to use "Snowman Circle" from Stamping Bella. I stamped him onto some of Bella's Bestest Paper and colored him with my Copics. Just to add a little ICY shimmer, I added some Glamour Dust to the image as well. Next, I cut him out with my Nestabilities circle and matted him with the BIG scalloped circle cut from SU's Soft Suede CS. I adhered the image to this cute DP from My Minds Eye and stitched around the edges. For the tree panel on the bottom, I matted the DP with some SU Soft Suede CS and used my SU border punch along the bottom edge. To finish, I tied this polka dot ribbon into a cute bubbly bow and there ya have one COOL card!
Wanna play along with the Bella Babes in next week's Bellarific Friday challenge? Yay!! The theme for next week is "Giftabella". Just make a gift or giftcard using a Stamping Bella image and email your card to emily@stampingbella.com by next Thursday for a chance to win some cool Bella Bucks.
