It's a Bella Ball!

Stamping Bella is one year old today and there's a party (a Bella Ball) going on in the Stamping Bella Member Forum on SCS. There are a few challenges going on as part of the celebration.

Here's a card I did for one of the sketch challenges. I used the Partygirlabella image (for the first time!). I thought this was most appropriate for a Stamping Bella celebration. She's colored with Copic markers. I cut out the cupcake and the balloons and attached them to the image with dimensionals. There's a tiny Swarovski crystal at the center of the flower on Bella's shirt for a little bling.

The bright party themed patterned paper from the Salsa line by Junkitz coordinates perfectly with the Bella image with its bright party hats. I used the patterned paper to pick the colors for the image and for the rest of the card. The sentiment is also from Stamping Bella.

There are a few more fun challenges posted in the Stamping Bella forum. I'm hoping to get a chance to play in another one or two before the end of the weekend . . .
