So today is the day!!!! The movie is out! I can't wait to go see it! I know many of you already have! Lucky ducks! Today we are discussing Bella cause well the books are about her, from her pov and without her there just wouldn't be the books! I love Bella! She's sweet and kind and yet fierce and feisty! She feels like an outsider and I think we have all felt like that at one point (or many) in our lives! I decided to make a card using Bellas truck - it's kinda like her, slow, rough around the edges but loyal it just keeps on going even after all it's been through! It's got character and spunk!

And of course we have to have Bella quotes!

Stupid, shiny Volvo owner.
I decided it didn’t matter. It doesn’t matter to me what you are.
About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was part of him — and I didn’t know how potent that part might be — that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
I don’t speak Car and Driver.
This truck is old enough to be your car’s grandfather — have some respect.
Take it easy — my truck is a senior citizen.
Just give me a minute to restart my heart.
I’ll always want you. Forever.
I can’t always be Lois Lane. I want to be Superman, too.
You are my life. You’re the only thing it would hurt me to lose.
I’m betting on Alice.
and those are just the ones from Twilight!!!
So colored the truck with makers stamped the pinetree scene behind the truck using a mask. I colored directly onto the pinetree stamp from Noble Deer then stamped it twice. Right above the hood their was a space not sure why cause I trimmed very close but anyway I decided to write BELLA there! I chose a blue background cause Edward likes Bella in BLUE! The flower is for her softness and the hardware cause she's so tough too! I used Beate's Weekend Sketch for this card! I saw on her Blog she's reading Twilight too so I REALLY hope she likes this card!

I will have one more project for you tomorrow and hopefully if all goes as planned it will be a doozie! Contest remains open until Sunday! So comment away!

It's time to take sides! Forget Sweden! Team Edward or Team Jacob?!?!?! and Why?

I am on Team Edward....is anyone really on Team Jacob? No really it is uncomprehendable to me! Edward and Bella are MEANT to be together! Her blood sings for him! It is fate, it is destiny, he loves and adores her! Honestly Jacob was there to see her through the tough times but he is a FRIEND! He is so much more immature and awkward! Edward is smooth and suave and classic! Their love though twisted is perfect!

Ok I'm done! Here's the card!
Team Edward - because werewolves don't sparkle!
I used the swirl from Baroque Motifs again - I like it for my Twilight cards! I emobssed it with Marquisette embossing powder which is all sparkly. The image of Edward with vampire I printed out and inked the edges then popped up on a scalloped square of silver cs. The round Team Edward is also a printed image that I stickled. The apple is a MS punch that I sticked too! I printed out the sentiment then used the word window punch and added red doodlebug rhinestones at either end! Some ribbon and viola'!

CS: Pure Poppy by PTI, Basic Black, Whisper White, Brushed Silver all SU
Stamps: Baroque motifs
Ink, Pallet Noir, Versamark
Accessories: PTI double stitched ribbon in Pure Poppy, Black Sheer Ribbon, STar Dust and Red Stickles, Doodlebug Rhinestones, Marquasite EP

Today's discussion and project focus on Edward and Bella as a couple! I don't know if I will get all my projects for this one loaded tonight or not! Cause I just spend the last hour and a half playing Quote Bingo in the Unity forum on SCS! I love those girls! Which is fitting cause my first (perhaps only) card for the day is using the Unity Image So and So Loves! My PSF Paula sent some to me for my birthday! Isn't she sweet?!?
This is a basic card! I added some red to the image to make the hearts stand out then I wrote each of their names in a heart, I wanted both their names in the same heart but that wasn't going to happen! I cut it out with my NEW top note die (LOVE it) and then trimmed it and matted it on a top note die cut I cut out of some black cardstock. I added some primas with a rhinestone brad. Makes me think of the wood they would have walked/ran through to get to the meadow which is the other card I hope to post tonight! This also qualifies for SCS Color Challenge 193! Kraft, Basic Black and Real Red!!!!

So Edward and Bella...we all love them, and the love between them! I actually struggle to put it into words because it is so incredible!!!!! It's so adorable how they can't get over the fact that the other one loves them and they are so incredibly devoted to each other!!! I think everyone no matter how happy they are in their relationship wish it was a bit more like Edward and Bellas!

Ready for Quotes?!? I like quotes if you haven't noticed!!!
