I just got this image through my wish rak friend “Montana” I have been hoping to get this for quite a while! I colored her in with SU WWC Crayons and added some stickles to jazz it up. The sun and the sentiment are from other SU sets (Sunny Seasons Greetings and Blooming with Happiness). The background is Cuttle Bugged with the mosaic embossing plate and added a few eyelets and a rhinestone to bling it up. I am addicted to these bellas!

I received this knitabella through wish rak too (Thank You Julie Lacey!) I had to have her for my mother who knits all the time- she will love this one! I colored her in with the SU MM Markers. I used liqued appliqué to try and make the wool look like wool - it added dimension but hmmm not sure sure it looks like wool.  She came out cute though..

I have been wanted to get one of these ever since I saw the first one - Thanks to our wish rak group I received a few images to play with and now I know I need to buy these. I’m not sure if its just the great quality of the stamp that makes these look so great or the artist coloring them in-lol!

There are so many techniques out there for coloring these stamps- I just used good ol fashion SU wonderful Water Color Crayons. It was a lot of fun to color-like paint by numbers without the numbers. I took a photocopy of TK’s original “Garden of Prayer” images so I could try to match as closely as possible the colors and painted away. A little time consuming but the end result is beautiful! (especially from far away- it looks really nice)

The colors are obviously not as vibrant as the original- but mine is a watercolor so they are 2 different mediums. I like the effect. Very impressionistic and colorful. These great stamps are from Cornish Heritage Farms : http://www.cornishheritagefarms.com/kinkade.php

I had to get the “Globetrottabella” because it is very fitting since I travel so much…. I couldn’t wait to play. She arrived on July 27th - I just didn’t get a chance to update my blog.

 It’s hard to see-in the picture but I popped the globe and suit case for dimension. I added some stickles/glitter to jazz it up on her head band, belt and the globe. She was fun to color and create. The backgrounds is a Cuttle Bug embossing folder with white craft ink pad to paper to pop the design. I used some SU designer paper and some floral brads…. I think she is cute- I tried a different layout and hoped for the best…

 I made this card today using the SU WWColor crayons and re-inkers with the aquapen. I usually use colored pencils or markers for the bellas so this was a first for me. I like the end result and will have to play with the watercoloring some more.

I made this one today for a co-worker who has a tons of shoes and the best wardrobe in the building- it suits her well.  I used the Happy Birthday cuttle bugged BG and the white craft pad to make it pop. There are stickles on the boots and bow in her her (hard to see) added a rhinestone to the belt and some ribbon and mini brads to finish it off I like this one more than I thought I would- I want all of the bellas they are just so versatile.
