Bellarific {Paper Piecing} Friday!

Hi everyone! Happy Bellarific Friday!!

Today is the first day of Bellarific Friday's in the Bella Babes search for a new Babe! I cannot even WAIT to see all the submissions for today's challenge, paper piecing!!

For my card today, I used one of my favorite stamps from Stamping Bella, Beatrice Bellbottoms!! I can't even stand her cuteness!!

I started by stamping her in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Bella's Bestest Paper and colored her with Copic Markers. I paper pieced her poncho with the same patterned paper I used on my card, Feeling Groovy by Doodlebug Design.

I kept the layout simple and stamped the sentiment, "feeling groovy" by Stamping Bella onto my Intense Kiwi Panel and then ran it through the Cuttlebug with the Polka Dots Embossing Folder (this is my fav EF these days).

I created the border with the Die-Namics Open Scallop Die and the flower is from the Flower Buttons Cut-Ups from The Cats Pajamas. I added a groovy peace sign brad in the center of the flower. All the layers were sewn on my sewing machine and I called her done!!

Make sure to head on over to Bloggabella for two things...this week's Tantalizing Toosday post and of course, today's Bellarific Friday post! One lucky commenter on today's Bellarific Friday post will win Bella Bucks! Woot!

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!

    This card is so delightful! Love the fun colours, and isn't it weird that your sentiment is the same as the name of your paper? LOL
