WELCOME TO BLOGABELLA

did I just say that?  (insert big shriek).. ya I can be a piggy wiggy sometimes and I am hoping that you don’t get offended.. I am assuming that you sistahs are as sicko as I am.. LOL!

 introducing HULABELLA . A lot of da sistahs have been begging for her… I just wanna swish with her.. hang out under a palm tree and chill.. I can see that happening, oh, in about NEVER! LOL… maybe when kiddies are older… LOL.  I pulled this card together in about 3 minutes and shoved it on my stove under the lights (AGAIN).. so please forgive… but you get the ideaR.. She is a little bigger than the bellas.. can’t explain why.. I am thinking the palm tree.. YA let’s blame it on the tree :).

 So all you HULA girls out there.. ENJOY!  I also wanted to take a poll and see how you liked the ‘font’ ALOHA.. I am thinking it is specfabulous..I have other words that are in that style so before I start producing, I wanted to get a sistahs’ thumbs up.

MWAH to the girls who wanna get ‘L-E-I-D’ (*winks*)

Em

SELF?  what would make da sistahs happy since I will be gone for a few days (CHA.. oh did I mention I was going? LOL)  and won’t be able to ‘blab’.  I figured a coupla bellas would be nice, no?  I will post tomorrow before I leave so they could keep you company whilst (LOL–I always wanted to use that word.. probably in the wrong context but was fun to write) I am gone……

 dramatic “whilst” MWAHHHHHHH to da sistahs…

 so the theory about taking pics on my stovetop is not being handled quite well by the operator of the camera.  I immediately called HUB to come to my office to set up the studio in a box and he will!  So bear with my pics please!

Here is the bella topiary!  It’s actually an older design I had and resurrected.. WHY did I wait so long?  I think it is great for a simple invitation, happy birthday.. anything!  It comes in two sizes and fits in the scallops (of course..LOL)… LOVE IT!  I also used my new bella dizzy background (can you see the new collection coming to life?).. It’s a honkin’ piece of rubbah and fits half a card which is great!  You can line it up and punch out, sparkle, blingify (is that a word… NOW IT IS) it…. I hope you can see it on the card!  The dizzy part matches many of my stamps.. the swirls are on my oval and hourglass flowers, in bouquets (sposabella) etc…

Lemme know what you thinky?!

Mwah to a I-hope-it-will-be-a-great-monday DAY!

Em

who’s goin’?  cough it up.

mwah (without cough)

Em

OK, here is another sample of the bella daisy background where you repeat it on the cardfront and color in (with Copic markers).. cute no?  And the teeny tiny swarovskis?  YUMMMMMM.

you likey/lovey?

 Mwah!

p.s check out the quality of the picture.. huh? huh?  how good is that?  I learned from SCS that someone put their cards on top of their stove (burners OFF) and put on the hood light and lay the card on top of 2 sheets of white card stock. I like it!

p.p.s. of course I have that ‘studio in a box thingamabob’ that I have no idea how to use but HAD TO HAVE..LOL

MWAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Ok, so I am working on a borders line.. LOL.. yes, another thing on my list of things to do 🙂  They are coming to fruition though.. faster than I thought and I LOVEY them.  They can be used for SO MANY things!  My pics SUCK the big petootie (whatever that means) and I have made a decision that after CHA I am gonna finally SIT down, ignore all your orders (LOL) and fix my gallery… I have such great cards to show you (Nicky’s and mine) and I will try to include a sistah gallery!  How cute would that be!  But like I said, I can’t do anything until then so PLEASE bear with me (as if you would ever think otherwise, RIGHT?)…

ok so I used my new bella daisy border on this card.. there is a little gap between the lines where I put a ribbon.. OF COURSE used my new favorite color swarovskis called “volcano” which shows ever color under the sun depending on how you look at them.. from purples, to orchids to greens.. SPECCCCC FABULOUS!!  I also got the teeny tiny weeny winy swarovskis that I put at the waist of Jayden’s dress.. OMG.. sparkly warkly. (do I sound like I have a mental deficiency today? I am writing like a 2 month old! ROFLMAO).  The nice thing about this border is that it lines up beautifully, you can colour intermittent daisies in, you can sparkle the center, you can keep them in a shadow ink, rainbow ink etc! Lots more coming with samples!

MWAH!
