Bike A Bella


Here is a pretty little gal that I colored up tonight. I just got this lovely a few weeks ago and thought she needed some ink. The cherry paper was a scrap paper from another project last year...see girls I am trying to be good and use up my scraps! I didn't do anything fancy color wise with her. I used water color pencils and instead of a blender pen I used odorless mineral spirits to blend my colors. I really like that better than the blender pens. I put a small dot of stickles in the center of the flowers on her shirt and the bow in the doggie's hair to bling her up a bit. Hope you are all having a good week. I plan on getting some scrappin' done this long holiday weekend! Can you believe it is already Labor Day? Me neither! Talk to you soon!

Wow, waytago using those scraps!! What a cute, summery little card.

And question, exactly how many Bella's are there in the Bella universe?!? :)

I love it. I may have to try the mineral spirits.

Hi friend!

I took our young man to see Star Wars (boring...but don't tell - LOL); the girls went to see Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2. They really enjoyed it.
