Stamping Bella?!?!

Heehee! Hi friends and a very happy Friday to you! I am so excited because there are so many fun things going on: We had a wonderful blog hop yesterday with Inktegrity, along with new images that are available now, Blog candy is still up for grabs HERE on this post, and...
RAISE THE BAR debuts today! Woohoo!
Raise The Bar is a new challenge site that I started up. Nothing fancy, just a site that will help you keep your New Year's resolution to try new things, re-visit old favorites, and use your hoarded supplies. ;)
This week's kickoff challenge is called DEBUT DAY - in other words, use something that you haven't used before.
And speaking of...

Oh heavens, this Stamping Bella image has been in my stash I think for well over a year now! A few years ago, I went Stamping Bella crazy. These two Best Friends Forevah are from the Tiddly Inks line, I paired them with a DP that I bought in June from GAS:


I colored them up with copics and used the current sketch from C.R.A.F.T. because it had so many cute elements to it. Here is the charm I added as a side embellishment:



This is one half of a charm, the other side says "Friend" so that two buddies could have coordinating bling.
I do hope you come and join us over at Raise The Bar! I have a fun and talented DT who debuted some of their schtuff, now it's your turn to show us what you have. ;)
Enjoy this beautiful Friday everyone, have a blessed day!
*Love and Aloha*
