First BELLA Card... Imelda Bella


My first Bella's arrived on Saturday, and it was so hard for me to wait to play with them. I had to let me eyes rest and the Bella's just kept on calling my name. Well, I could not resist them anymore so I made my first Bella card yesterday!

I love Imelda Bella... I think she is a mini version of me. I am a shoe fanatic ...and I just keep buying more and more. I love the sentiment that goes with her. I stamped the Imelda Bella with Black Staz On Ink, and colored her in with my Prisma Markers. The cardstock I used is some good old SU I had, Chocolate Chip and Really Rust. The background paper is Deja Views - Dog Days Collection, Dog Flowers and Big Polka Dots. The ribbon is chocolate from Michaels's. The card layout is similar to the one we did for the Paper Pretties SIYJ Weekly Challenge, I just changed it a tad to fit the Bella.

Well, I am glad to be back and it feels great to be seeing 20/20 with no glasses or contacts! I will have some more cards to share with you all this week. Inky Hugs!
