Some more PINK


So we're still thinking Pink for the Less is More challenge and in my recent Simon Says Stamps parcel there was this Stamping Bella. Many years ago it was really hard to get hold of the Bella stamps and I love this stamp and some friendly crafter sent me some images. When I saw Simon Says Stamps were selling her she had to come home to me and it just happened she was on my desk and it was simply the case of stamping and paper piecing her coat and some Flower soft and fun flock mixture for the cuffs.
This was just a rough experiment looking forward to receiving the die now cos obviously my cutting out isn't quite straight.
So I'm trying to downsize my craft stuff I've tried to be ruthless but its hard I've three bags of stuff now but I've got to go through my Tildas. I love Tilda but not everyone in the non crafty world gets her and I'm often have cards left with her its going to be hard to sort those boxes out.

Two fab cards Debby - am loving the Stampin Bella one especially - stand by for a confession - I am one of those who does not understand Tidla/Edwin etc - I see gorgeous layouts and designs made with the mouthless wonders but am afraid cannot for the life of me understand the appeal!!!! So there are some 'in the crafty world' who don't get her either!!!!!!

Shelly said...

Beautiful less is more card, and the geometric shapes on your pink christmas card. I know what you mean about Tilda... non crafty people usually say to me "why doesn't she have a mouth?"... Shelly x

Hi Debby, your cards are gorgeous.

Love the Bella one - I remember when those stamps were like gold dust as well. If I remember rightly they were not allowed to be sold in the internet and there was only one company I could get them from - so used to have to wait to go to the Harrogate show to get my hands on them. Now I've not used them for ages!!!

Sarah

PS - I'm afraid I have to confess to not being a fan of Tilda myself - it's something about their faces it just puts me off!!
