Bella, Bella, Bella

Bella Bella Bella . . . the most talked about stamps around right now. And to think . . . a few months ago I had no idea what a Bella stamp was . . . and now I can't seem to get enough of these cute little stamps.

This is my first Bella card and I want to thank my wonderful Divine Secret Sister from Splitcoast Stampers for sending the stamp to me so I could make this card. I have a wonderful "big sis" that has been spoiling me rotten with her e mails, cards, and beautiful gifts. She sent me four "Bella" stamps that I am so excited to use. I would love to be able to thank her personally, but then that would take the fun out of the whole "secret sister" thing. So I will patiently wait another three months until she decides to reveal herself. I only know that she lives in Alabama, she is a teacher, she is married, she has a cute little dog named Bandit, she makes beautiful cards, and she spoils me rotten.

So here she is . . . my very first Bella card . . . made especially for my secret sis as a thank you for all the wonderful things she has done for me. I can't wait to find out who you are because I want to be able to send cards and goodies to you too.

I made this card using my Flowahbella stamp from Stamping Bella. I colored her in using my SU watercolor crayons. The background paper is from Heidi Grace and Basic Grey. I added red SU ribbon, a tiny Prima Flower in her hair with a Swarovski Crystal, a big red button, some zig zag rub ons, and some red rain dots from Cloud9 Design.

Thanks for looking!
