Elisabeth Bell's Miss You Love You 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.

How can you win your own Miss You Love You digi image?  You'll have to hop through and leave comments on EACH blog.  [You can find the full list of 16 other 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 Friday, Feb. 8, 2013 at 9 AM to leave comments. The winners will be posted at the Digi Bells' blog on Saturday, Feb. 9, 2013.

Reminder:  Buying then sharing digital images is theft.  Sharing digital images takes income away from the artist.

This little sweetie, sitting on her steamer trunk, waits with her puppy for her adventure to begin.

Here's a closer view of my Copic-filled image.  I've painted Diamond Stickles over the flowers for added glimmer.  Glossy Accents over the entire image adds shiny dimension.  I have used the "beyond the edge" technique with a Spellbinders Large Labels die to create the inside frame.  I've used a Technique Tuesday Jet Lag small set map stamp, inked with various Adirondack dye inks, to splash some color around my white outside frame.

A Creative Imaginations map collage is layered with Bazzill cardstock to form my side open card.  Faux stitching provides borders surrounding my layers.  A house stamp from a Crafty Secrets Home Sweet Home Large set provides a dreamy image in my frame.  A sentiment from the same Home Sweet Home set supports my theme.  I've painted Peeled Paint Distress Stickles over my large labels frame for sparkling texture.

 

A warped clock charm hangs from a We R Memory Keepers gold eyelet by a gold cord in one corner in front of a bit of olive-toned ricrac.  A Making Memories Brown Outline leather corner adorns the other corner.

 

A 5/8" Forest Green Satin Sensations ribbon bow is centered in my flower cluster of mulberry paper roses, Prima sugar plum roses, chloes, pias and Petaloo dazzlers glittered florettes.  McGill pine branches and Punch Bunch small birch leaves make nice textured fillers.  A Martha Stewart punched blue butterfly covered with Star Dust Stickles flutters nearby.  Want2Scrap's Finesse Swirls in brown provide movement throughout.

 

The inside supports the front and shows an Art Gone Wild! friend sentiment stamped inside of a frame made by a Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page Daisy edge and corner.
