Happy Birfday, Emilybella!!!

Today we are celebrating 'The Bella's' birthday!! Welcome to the Birthday Blog Skip, Hop & Dance sponsored by Stamping Bella! If you've just happened upon my blog, you can CLICK HERE to start from the beginning at Bloggabella. And believe me, you are going to want to start from the beginning....not only because there are some absolutely amazing creations along this hop, but also because there is a little something involved called.....a random prize!!!!

In addition to the fabulous eye candy, we have decided to hide a prize somewhere along the hop! One pre-selected blogger will draw a random winner from the comments on her post, and the winner will receive a $40 Gift Voucher to Stamping Bella!!! The fun part is...we're not telling you who it is! So as you hop, make sure you leave comments on every post so you have a chance to win!! We will announce the winner on Monday in the Splitcoast forum. How awesome is THAT?!

Now, a little bit about my creation! Imagine my shock and giddiness when Shannan emailed me and asked me to be involved in a special surprise for Emily!! The amazing and talented Christy Croll, artist of the Bittyblooms and Tiddly images, created this amazing digital image that is a remarkable rendition of the Bella!! Several of us were sent this surprise image to play with and design something special for Emily. Apparently, by Em's blog post yesterday, she started receiving interesting mail (heehee) and was over the moon with excitement and totally surprised by all the cards!!

I won't bore you with all the details of my design...it's pretty self explanatory but in case you are wondering, here are the Copic markers that I used when colouring da Bella: E00, R20, E50, W1, W3, W5, W7, BG10, R11, R32 and R35! Sorry the colours in the picture are a little off...it's more pink than it appears on your screen.



Now, on with the hop!! Dance on over to Hope's blog to continue on with the festivities!!!

Have a super stampy day!! Especially YOU, Emily!! MWAH!!
