Stamping Bella Bellariffic Friday - Uptown Girls!

Good morning! Today I'm sharing a card I made for Stamping Bella Bellariffic Friday and this week our theme was to use an Uptown Girl on our projects. The Design Team are also showcasing our January Stamp of the Month - Brittany the Birthday Girl - which you can grab for 20% off for the whole month of January. 


She's coloured up with Copic Markers and then I fussy cut her.. yes, but hand! The idea was to cut around the bottom of her dress and the cake and then use an oval die to cut the image out, but I was cutting and fitting the die, and cutting some more, and then some more, and eventually just gave up and cut her out completely and cut a separate oval! 


I designed the shaped card on the Silhouette and added some layers to the inside of the card too. The Stitched Oval was stamped with a Stempleglede flourish stamp. 

Next week's challenge is a Mojobella sketch Created by Vervegirl! 



There's something new afoot so please check out this Stamping Bella Bellriffic Friday blog post for details of entering this week's challenge

Have a great weekend
