Some Bella Challenges....

I needed some inspiration and tried some bella challenges out. I combined a sketch and a color challenge for the both of the cards. The first one uses bsc #16 and bcc #14. I like doing the color challenges because they get me to use colors that I don't use very much!! Although I do use pink and green alot, I never use lime green. I just got this paper from sweet 'n sassy stamps and it it worked perfect!! Sentiment is from papertrey beautiful blooms. I also added stickles to her hat and present. I also colored in the presents with my Sakura gellyroll pen. This is my first time getting this and I so love it! I don't know what took me so long to get it!
I obtained this image from a swap and think I may need to get her for my own stash!!


The second card utilizes bsc #17 and bcc #12. I had this paper laying around that fit the color almost perfect. The challenge was for hot pink and this is not quite hot pink but I had to use it!!! They are from dream street papers. The sentiment is also from Papertrey as is the flower. I put a dew drop in the center and two on the other side of the bella!! I paper pieced her dress with a yellow paper. I also added stickles to her flowers!

Well thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!!
