Double Dipper: Never Stop Sparkling

Yes it really does sparkle that much in real life. Doodlebug Paper meet ADDY’tude!

 Several weeks ago, I mailed this stamp, ADDY’tude Loves to Sparkle to Michele Boyer.  She’s always up for cyber-stamping with a friend, and I knew her affection for rubber of the Bella variety. We both love the ones illustrated by the fabulous Christy Croll. 😉  We decided we’d post our creations at the same time, and ‘we’ll call this the Double Dipper’, says Michele.

I had so much fun paper-piecing and coloring this image last weekend. I think I probably giggled out loud when I realized her designer earrings were the perfect size for Taylor’s Tiny Twinkle bling. The glittered paper from Doodlebug, the glitter pens, the rhinestones. It was so fun.

I knew this little lady was stepping into the spotlight, so I stamped her in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and the cut a mask of the full stamp. After masking her body, I used my Copic airbrush and YR31 to give the card a glow. I focused the most intense sprays of color at the edge of her body so the light just radiates behind her. Then I removed my mask, and colored the hair, skin and bracelets. I stamped her body again on the glittered paper with Black StazOn, trimmed out the dress, shoes and purse and pieced them to the card front. Bling, bling and she’s ready for a night on the town. 🙂

I’m going to check out Michele’s card (which I’m sure I’ll drool over – she has that way with rubber). Then, I’m going to finish up my Divine Design project for the month. I’m almost finished – better a little late than never. 🙂  Thanks for stopping by today.
