It’s WONDERDFUL WEDNESDAYS with MICHELLE SHORT aka THE CARD GROTTO!
Hello there, Michelle here and I am back with my final card for Stamping Bella this month. I have had so much fun creating my cards and this card that I am sharing today is no exception. I am using the Under The Sea Creatures along with the coordinating “Cut It Out” dies, Under the Sea Backdrop and the Under The Sea Sentiments Set.
I started off by stamping the Under The Sea Backdrop onto a panel of white cardstock. The panel was then coloured with Copic Markers to create the sea for my creatures to be in. I love that the backdrop is already made for you, no masking required! I took the sentiment from the Under The Sea Sentiments Set and stamped this onto the background using black ink. I did a little masking so that I could separate the words to fit the scene.
I stamped the Under The Sea Creatures onto white cardstock and coloured these with Copic Markers. They were then cut out using the Under The Sea Creatures “Cut It Out” Dies. I added the background flat onto a white A2 card base and then added the creatures on top with foam tape. To finish off, I added a little Crystal Glaze to the bubbles.
It has been an absolute pleasure guest designing with Stamping Bella this month. A huge thank you to Emily and her team for having me. Thanks so much for visiting today. I hope you have a fabulous day!

It’s Spotlight Tuesday time again! The weeks truly are flying by, and that is why much as it pains me, it is time to start looking toward Christmas.

Yep, that’s right, previews for the new Holiday 2017 release start on 3rd October, so I thought today would be a good opportunity to start getting in the festive mood. Let’s take a look at some of the fantastic stamps already in the Stamping Bella collection.

Stamp It Saturday: Out of the Frame Die Cutting with Sandiebella
Time for another Stamp It Saturday! This week Sandiebella has a really useful tutorial for you on how to do “Out of the Frame” die-cutting, where you die cut your image using a circle/square/whatever die with a portion (in this case the balloons) sitting outside the die-cut. Simple, but oh so handy, especially for images like our gorgeous Uptown Girl Bentley.

it’s WONDERFUL WEDNESDAYS WITH Michelle Short AKA the CARD GROTTO!
Hello there, Michelle here and I am delighted to be sharing another card with you today. My card uses the adorable Especially For You Petunia stamp set. I just love Petunia! She is always so happy! 🙂
I started off by stamping Petunia on to a circle of cardstock that I cut using a stitched circle die. The image was then coloured using Copic Markers, adding in a little blue for sky. I took the sentiment from the Kitty & Mousie set and with a bit of masking, I stamped the ‘happy’ and ‘birthday’ on to a piece of black cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied white embossing powder and heat set. The sentiments were then cut in to strips.
I took a piece of patterned paper and cut this using a pierced square die. This was added to a white 5.25” x 5.25” card base with tape runner. I then added the image circle on top with foam tape, as well as the sentiment pieces. I love combing different sets and Stamping Bella sets go so well together. Thank you so much for popping by today, see you next Wednesday! I hope you have a great day!
Thank you Michelle!!!
