Elisabeth Bell February Digi Release Blog Hop

Good morning!  It's now a decent hour on Friday and I'm up and about and here to share my project for the Elisabeth Bell February Digi Release Blog Hop.  This is a bittersweet post for me.  It is my last one as a member of the GDT for the Digi Bells.  It's been a wonderful three months and I am so very grateful to Elisabeth and The Digi Bells for the incredible opportunity to design alongside their amazingly-talented and inspiring team!  I will miss it very much, but you can be sure I will still be sharing lots of creations made with Elisabeth's gorgeous stamps here on my blog! Anyway, if you arrived here from Lynda's blog, you are on track.  If not, you will want to start at The Digi Bells blog and hop from there so you don't miss a single gorgeous creation!.

The new digi being released into the Elisabeth Bell Digital Collection this month is called "Love You, Miss You".   Isn't she absolutely precious?



Here is the card I created :


My card base and mats are GKD Innocent Pink and the patterned papers are from the Kaisercraft English Rose 6x6 pad.  I printed the adorable image on Make it Colour Blending card and colored her with my Copics.  I added a bit of rose Stickles to the flower centers and some pink Liquid Pearls to the the pink polka dots.  I went over some of the metal bits on the trunk with my Silver Spica Pen. I cut out around the image with my Cameo and popped it up on foam tape.  Some stitched ribbon and a layered rosette from K & Co. finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:



Here are the hop details:

To win this adorable digi, you will have to go through the whole hop and leave comments on each blog in order to better your chances to win!  Winners will be picked from comments left on two randomly-selected DT blogs. The hop will end at 9:00 AM (Arizona time) on February 8, 2013.  The winners will be picked and posted on The Digi Bells blog on Saturday, February 9, 2013.

Here is the whole line-up for the hop:


Thanks for stopping by! Your next stop is Pam's blog where she has a stunning creation to share with you!
Enjoy the rest of the hop and good luck!

I am entering my card in the following challenge:


 Have a wonderful day!

    Love this image and your card...so lovely! The colors are so "spring" too...I never tire of reading your card sentiments. Sentiments are always the fun part of putting a card together for me and so I so love to read how perfect your sentiments fit the image you choose. Hope you got to sleep in, I felt the same way! Nothing like "sleep in Saturdays". Have a great day! xxx Ann Marie
