If you’ve been following Bloggabella this week, or if you saw my previous blog post here, you will be aware that we are sharing previews of the imminent new release at Stamping Bella.

Firstly, a big thank you to everyone who has commented here/on Facebook with good wishes, and those that have been in touch via email. You’re all lovely! My Dad is still in hospital, and we’ve been told he will be there for another couple of weeks, but he is doing much better.  Fingers crossed that will continue.

I’m feeling a little under the weather myself, but am remaining hopeful that will be short-lived!  I have far too much to do to be ill… 😉

Now, on to my card for today!  It is of course, Bellariffic Friday, and that means the Babes all have some Stamping Bella fun to share.  Make sure you pop on over to Bloggabella to see what everyone has been up to, including the sistahood!

Don’t forget that there are many ways to win some Bella $$$ – you can comment on the Bellariffic Friday blog post, join in with the next challenge and also upload all your Stamping Bella creations to the SCS Gallery using the keyword stampingbella .

My card features one of the adorable and amusing new stamps.  Emily has now revealed the artist behind the new line – Christine Grove.  You can read all about her in this post over on Bloggabella.

Love her! With the accompanying sentiment she is perfect for a card to send to a friend you haven’t seen for a while, or you could come up with quite a few other sentiments to go with her and cover numerous occasions, I’m sure!

As usual, I stamped the image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Make it Colour Blending Card and coloured with ShinHan Touch Twin Markers.  I cut the image layer out using a Spellbinders Grand Labels die. The background layer was created using Core-dinations cardstock and an embossing folder.

That’s it from me today!  Hope you’re enjoying the new release previews.  I’ll be back with another post tomorrow.
