For You!

Hi everyone! Happy Tuesday!!

Here is a card I created using last Saturday's sketch from The Sweet Stop, SSS68!!

I decided to make a Christmas card today because I REALLY wanted to use the new Mitten Weather paper from Cosmo Cricket!!

I started by stamping Allboxedupa-Bella from Stamping Bella twice in Memento Tuxedo Black, once onto Bella's Bestest Cream Paper and once in one of the patterns from Mitten Weather.

I colored the entire image with Copic Markers and then paper pieced the package in the foreground and cut it out and popped it up on Foam Tape. I added some shine with my Clear Spica Glitter Pen to the bows and all the polka dots on the presents.

I cut out and embossed the main focal panel with Square Nestabilities and sponged the edges with Memento Canteloupe & Memento Tangelo. The sentiment is from Turtle Tots- A Flower For You, and I just inked up the "for you" portion and cut it out and embossed it with Circle Nestabilities.

All the layers were sewn on my sewing machine and I added two Cherry Brads by American Crafts on the bottom corner and called it done!!

This week's Bellarific Friday challenge is a fab sketch brought to us by Paulabella! Make sure to email your creation to Emily by Thursday evening to be in the running for the next Bella Babe!!

Thanks SO much for stopping by!!
