It's Your Day!
This is my Favorite Stamping Bella............Cosmobella!! Isn't she just the cutest?? I love paperpiecing her outfit, it's so much fun! You can't tell from the picture - but I used my Stardust pen to add polkadots to her shirt - definite bling IRL! The DP is Tres Jolie and I used my Doodle This stampset to add a little something to the background. Yes, I know - I cannot put down my corner rounder and stop making scalloped edges!! I really try, but I always reach for it lol I didn't make this card for anybody in particular, just to have in my stash - you can never have enough of those. I opened up my email this morning to find an amazing short letter from this lovely lady from one of the stamping magazines that we all adore! At first I wasn't sure what I was getting an email for, but then quickly realized she was asking/inviting me to submit some of my cards for publication. She said she is an avid reader/fan of my blog. WOW - me! I know a lot of you girls out there submit your work often, but it really hadn't crossed my mind until now to do the same. *big grin* I guess I will get some of my work together and see what happens!

If you haven't been over to PAPERTREY INK and seen the new stampsets that were unveiled yesterday then you have got to hurry over and see!!! They are absolutely amazing!! I have already placed my order and can't wait for them to arrive! :)
