Elisabeth Bell's On Cupid's Cloud Digi Bells' Blog Hop

To celebrate the newest addition to Elisabeth Bell's Digital Gallery (here), the Digi Bells Design Team is hosting a blog hop.  It's always been a joy to hop along and see how designers show the same image used in so many different ways.  Today, I'm overjoyed to participate in this hop as a guest designer for the Digi Bells.  Yay!!!

How can you win your own On Cupid's Cloud digi image?  You'll have to hop through and leave comments on EACH blog.  [You can find the full list of 13 blogs at the Digi Bells Design Team blog (here).]  Lynda will pick 2 blogs at random and the winners will be picked from those comments. The hoppers will have until March 2, 2012 at 9 AM to leave comments. The winners will be posted at the Digi Bells' blog on Saturday, March 3, 2012.

Another way to win will be to do the hop, leave comments and then to make a "Lots of Lace" card using ANY Elisabeth Bell image and post it on the Digi Bells' Blog (here).  This will also end on March 2, 2012 at 9 AM Arizona time and the winner will also be posted at the Digi Bells' blog on Saturday, March 3, 2012.

I've die cut my image using Spellbinders Heart Circles.  After I filled the image using Copic colors, I adhered it to a Want2Scrap Nestaboard of the same diecut design.  Here's a scanned pic of my colored, die cut image . . .


I printed a reduced version of my scanned image onto sticky back canvas to create custom canvas i-Top brads.  Here's a view of my medium-sized brad used as a flower center to decorate my flower cluster.  A locket is hidden among the paper roses . . .


This view shows my small custom canvas i-Top brad used as a 3-loop seam binding bow topper . . .


A few details from Elisabeth's image show up within another flower cluster.  This little Cupid gets some well-deserved rest as the Close To My Heart sentiment "still in love" QuicKutz mini tag is clearly displayed near a key charm.


I've used layers of heritage lace, musical notes and definitions patterned papers with Bazzill textured cardstock to create my card.  Here's a view of my card front showcasing my use of Elisabeth Bell's On Cupid's Cloud latest digital image . . .


Wouldn't this be a wonderful image for sharing happy wishes with a loving anniversary couple?  I think my dear husband will appreciate seeing Cupid getting a break for a day of fishing - LOL!!!
