I hope your week has been Bellarific, but if not, we’ve got an absolutely Bellarific Friday post to cheer you up! This week the Babes have been playing with older but still amazing stamps from our collection. It’s always fun to play with the LATEST RELEASE stamps, but there’s something special about all those older loves too, and creating new things with them. Or perhaps some of these are new to you, if you’ve only recently found us! Either way, happy Friday and enjoy.
A true old favourite here on Ginger’s fab Easter card!
A frogtastic birthday card from Jenny featuring a Mini Oddball stamp!
Such a pretty card from Steph featuring one of our adorable Bundle Girl stamps.
Spring is all about growth, and Michele has picked the perfect Tiny Townie stamp for her card!
It’s always a joy to see the first bees buzzing around in Spring. Love this cute card from Sandie!
Love all the bright colours on this fun card from Debra!
Finishing today on a gorgeous card from Delphine!
That’s it for today! Hopefully you’re feeling inspired to go and create. Don’t forget to leave us a comment below with some love for our Babes and all their hard work.
MWAH!

Colour the strawberry from the Spec-tacular Strawberries and Cream set. Fussy cut around the outline.
Cut a piece of card measuring 5.75″ x 8.5″. Score on the 8.5″ side at 2″, 4″, 6″ and 8″.
Flip 90 degrees and score at 0.5″, 1.75″ and 4.5″.
Fold and crease all the score lines.
On the 8.5″ side, cut away the first, third and fifth 0.5″ sections.
On the bottom, cut each of the 1.25″ sections up to the first score line. These are the tabs for the bottom of the carton.
On the 0.5″ side section, cut away the bottom 1.25″ section and make tabs from the 2 remaining sections.
On the top, where you cut away the three 0.5″ sections, measure and mark the first section in the centre, at 1″. Score diagonally, on each side, into the corners of the next score line down.
Pinch the score lines to fold inwards.
Repeat for the other side of the carton. Use paper panels to decorate the 4 sides of the box, and the 2 upper sections not scored.
Apply tape or wet glue to the two side tabs and fold so that the tabs are adhered to the inside of the opposite end of the base.
To create the closure, fold out the 4 bottom flaps of the box. Using a ruler and craft knife, cut a 0.5″ slit by placing a ruler across and cutting from 0.75″ to 1.25″. Bring the ruler down slightly and repeat, then remove the excess. Repeat on the opposite flap.
Cut a small strip of card and slip it through one of the openings. Adhere to the inside.
Close up the box and insert the other end into the opening. Push closed.
Apply glue to the inside of the top of the box and secure.
Cut a piece of paper 7/8″ x 1-7/8″ and fold in half. Apply glue to the inside and slide on over the box top.
Cut decorative shapes to create a matt for the image
Adhere to the front of the box
Adhere the image to the box using foam tape/dots.
Stamp the sentiment from the Work Life Sentiments set and cut out using a pennant die. Adhere to the top of the box and add a little heart for decoration.

Hello everyone! It’s sunny and almost warm here so let’s go to the beach this weekend! I have decided to use the oh so cute Spec-tacular Iced Tea and Lemonade pair and combined that stamp with our Beach Backdrop to create a fun happy scene! I thought I would even colour the glasses into sunglasses, you know it’s so sunny 😉 !
The sentiment I added is from the Spec-tacular Together Sentiment set and I only added a piece of washi tape and stamped a bit of texture as final touches, once all my Copic colouring was done.
Sky: B000, 00, BV00
Sand: E50, 51, 53, 55
Sea: B18, 39, BG02, 05, 07
Arms & legs: E000, 11, 71
Lemon: E33, Y02, 06, 08, 15
Lemon leaves: G14, 17, 28
Iced tea glass: B000, E95, 97, 99, Y02
