Bye Bye Boy

You're probably here because today is Bellariffic Friday....AAAANNNDDD you probably want to find out what my favorite Bella is...well I might have stretched that a little. See, it would have been too hard to pick just one Bella. I mean, I have so many favorites. So I picked my favorite Boy Bella. Yup, I'm on a boy kick and decided it would be way easier to pick that. And that would be Bye Bye Boy an image designed by Mo Manning and released in rubber by Stamping Bella.

By now you probably know that I stamped this cutie on Bella's Bestest paper using Memento Tuxedo black ink and colored him with copics. Lots and lots of layers of copics. Of course the surround and ground shading were done with prismacolor pencils blended with gamsol. I once again just colored the image without having paper in mind but decided I couldn't go wrong with primary colors. I easily found Basic Grey's Life of the Party plaid design paper in primary colors - woo hoo. I spruced it up some though by cutting a circle out to frame the image and then added stars cut from primary colored cardstock using Nestibilities. The sentiment which comes with the image was applied with Versamark and then heat embossed with Black Embossing powder. Haven't used that in forever! A few red brads and machine stitching finish this off.

Next week we have another awesome sketch so I hope you can play along with us. The code for SCS is BELLARIFFIC0312.

Have a great weekend.
