Blue n Bell

 This was another fun project to make.  I used Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Bold Black and White printed on Coredinations blue cs.  The awesome Gothic Arch is a printable or SVG file from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff also.  The gorgeous articulated images Bluenbell are from Inka at Altered Artifacts.  She has a program that allows you to work with one of her new images for free if you sign up, check it out here.  I used Tim Holtz tape and the bg image was a freebie from Dover.  I have never worked with articulated figures before, I wasn't quite sure how to connect them so I put them together by using a short piece of string to connect the pieces so they stay moveable.
Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

    Wozer! I am so loving this! Your background colors just make everything pop! I love how you made Blu's legs dangle. I am sure in real life the movement really makes it incredible!
