Where's the rain

Now that's a question I would like answered. We went straight from winter to summer, and have had no rain, although I think the Jo'burg rain season starts only a little later, BUT that does not mean I cannot wish for rain! My garden is so dry, and I water it every second day, and the poor little plants are calling me names while I sleep at night - I'm sure of it, lol!

Why am I always talking about the weather, don't they say when people have nothing to talk about they talk about the weather. Nah that can't be cause I have stuff to tell you. Important stuff! Keep reading.

First about the card, of course. I coloured cosmobella here, with prismacolor pencils, and blended it with grumtine. Then I cut her out with nesties and layered her on 3D foam. I added some glitter with my quickie glue pen and a bit of highlights to the glass and her buckle and shoes with my glaze pen. Not much more I can say, unless of course I missed something, but then please leave me a comment or a question in my chat box!

Now... what else. Did you know that Stamping Bella has a new release coming 28 September - is that exciting or what!!!??? Okay, I know, it means a little dent in your wallet, but look at the bright side, you'll have more rubber to play with. How can that not be a good thing. Keep watching the Bella Blog for news.

If anyone is interested, go check these video, the first for tying a knot and the second for tying a bow. I got it from Linda's blog, and I have found it helped me SO much. Not that I have used any yet, lol.

Lastly, don't forget to check the Bella Blog a little later for B-e-l-l-a-r-i-f-i-c F-r-i-d-a-y!! You can win Bella bucks if you leave a comment. So go now, wait, only if you've finished visiting me of course.
