You popped my heart seams...all my bubble dreams, bubble dreams...

Hey, peeps! I'm so sorry I'm so late in posting my Bellariffic Friday project today...what a crazy week! I know, I say that all the time. But it's true!

So this week, our theme was to use Twinchies. I've never used them before, but they sure were fun!



I was inspired by my friend Sharon Harnist to make a boring little silver fridge magnet into something cute and fun. I chose Bessie Lulu, and stamped her in Memento Black onto my Twinchie, then colored her with Copic Markers.



Once she was all colored, I sponged the edges with Close to Cocoa ink, then added some sparkle with Diamond Stickles and a Copic Clear Spica pen. Finally, I glued my Twinchie onto my magnet clip with E6000 adhesive. I think I picked the magnet up at the grocery store, but I can't really remember. But I do know that I need more of them...I think I need to make some of these for my Etsy store, which is sadly empty at the moment.

We have also started announcing the themes in advance, and next week's Bellariffic Friday Theme is BIRTHDAY!! All you need to do is create a birthday card using stamps from Stamping Bella, then email a picture to Emily (emily@stampingbella.com) on or before Jan. 28th! I can't wait to see what you create!

Anyway, that's it for me...don't forget to check out Emily's blog for more eye candy from da babes and da sistahood! Have a fabulous day!
