Welcome Fairy Merrily to our family at The Digi Bells!

Our newest Digi is here, and I am quite excited about her!

Please welcome ** Fairy Merrily ** to our little family of Elisabeth Bell Digi's....

Blog hop will start on

Friday, July 19, 2013, at 12:00 pm and ends on Friday, July 26, 2013 at 12:00 pm.

 If you came to my blog from the sweet and oh so talented Lynne's blog, then you're on the right track.  If not, head on over to the multi-talented Julie's blog and start there.  I don't want you to miss a single project because this little pixie is too stinkin cute!  I'm so excited to share my version of Fairy Merrily with you!

Does it get much cuter than this?  Not for me, it doesn't!  I could color her and look at her forever!  She's colored with copics and has Stickles on her wings and on her dress.  I added some Diamond Glaze to her shoes and flowers in her hair.  This gorgeous paper is from a BasicGrey stack called That's My Girl.  She's got some handmade flowers and the Floral Oval frame she's cut out with are both from Spellbinders.  The seam binding and the orange card stock are from Stampin Up (the card stock is from one of the older In Color packs) and  the baker's twine is from The Twinery.  The charm and lace are from my stash.

Don't you just want to be flying free with her?  I'm really loving how she came out!

Here's a view of the pretty charm and the computer generated sentiment.

For some reason, I just couldn't stop taking pictures of her!

Here's one last look at her before you leave.

Now flit on over to my dear friend and so creative stamping sister, Mary Lou's place and see her fabulous creation!  Believe me, you won't want to miss it!

Happy hopping and have a great weekend!

Li'l Princess Tu-Tu

Hello everyone!  Hope you're having a great summery day!  It's hot down here in Florida in the States and I'm getting ready to take a dip in the pool.  Refreshing, I hope!  Today I want to share a cutie pop, Li'l Princess Tu-Tu,  from Elisabeth Bell's Digital Collection, who I have loved since the day she was created!  I can't believe I've never used her, but every time I'd start to color her up, someone would have her up on the blog or have done a gorgeous coloring of her.  But below is the story that got me to finally color her up!

Last week I was cleaning and getting ready for Allie's 5th birthday party and I had the broom out sweeping the floor.  She asked to help and I said sure (never going to turn down free labor!).  I went to get the dust pan and come back into the living room and there she is riding the broom all over the floor and telling Nanni how great of a sweep her horsey is!  I just knew that was my cue to get this baby on a card!

Isn't she just precious?  I think so!  She's colored with copics and has Stickles all over her!  I added some distressed ink around the edges and distressed the edges of all the paper and layers but you can't see them very well.  The flowers are handmade and the branches are from Martha Stewart's punch.  I added some cheese cloth and pearls and the papers are some gorgeous, fun older papers from a Debbie Mumm collection.  I love them and have been hording them forever!

Here's a closer view of some of the papers. Cute, aren't they?

 Hope you enjoy her as much as I loved coloring her.

Hope everyone is able to stay cool or at least comfortable!  I'll be back tomorrow with another fun project for Sassy Studio Designs and then Friday, we are presenting another sweet digi for Elisabeth Bell's Digital Collection!  Oh, I can't wait to show her off to you!
