Oh baby Bella and check out the new Elzybells!

Now all I need is for someone to be expecting a baby girl and then I can use this card! I bought this adorable Stamping Bella image so long ago but had yet to use it until today. Oh, BTW, pay no attention to the wonky stitching. It is in no way creative or a happy accident. It really is bad! I haven't figured out how to turn corners when I use the zig zag stitch resulting in bald corners and not so straight lines. Don't worry, I covered the worst of it behind the sentiment :) !!


The entire image is paper pieced and the face and star popped up. It is colored with Prisma pencils and oms and I added Shimmerz to the star for a little sparkle. What? You don't see it? What a surprise! The cardstock is a piece of scalloped paper I bought from my LSS, Scrappers Playground, and the patterned paper is from K and Co. Berry Sweet. The ribbon is from PTI and it is a perfect match to the paper, what luck?! The sentiment from a Heidi Grace clear set is cut out with a Nestie and sponged with the die still in place. And lastly I used a Ranger Inkssentials opaque white pen on the tiny flowers on the bundle.

Cute cute cute! Now, who's having a girl? Anyone?

Julia-Are you freakin' nuts? I can't handle two kids now...could you see me pregnant with #3 at 40? Besides...it would be another boy. Much as I'd like to deny it, but my mother was right. Sigh.

Hey, if there's a mishap behind the sentiment, you hid it very well. I can't even thread a sewing machine...so I'm jealous. That bella image is cute. Oh, and no I'm NOT expecting so don't look at me, LOL!
