Dietary Restrictions


I knew when I found this sentiment stamp in the clearance bin at Hobby Lobby that it would be a perfect match for my Weightwatchabella! Isn't that the dang truth though? If I ever wanted to be that thinabella, I *would* have to go down to just water and lipstick! Ugh!

In case anyone is unaware, this is the Spotlight Technique (<---click for SCS tutorial by Beate). I thought it would be fun to highlight bella's waist on this card, given how hard she works to maintain it! ;o) The arrow was an afterthought, but I think it gives the card just the right pop. What do you think?

In other news, there is blog candy up for grabs on Lorraine's Scrapmetal's Retreat blog if you're interested. I know I am!

Also, please don't forget to scroll down to the next post and look over the Basic Grey Clearance items for my friend Karen. I know she would appreciate it!

Details:
Stamps: Weightwatchabella, sentiment by Inky Antics
Paper: Tempting Turquoise, Whisper White, Positively Pink (hand cut arrow)
Ink: Basic Black, Going Grey
Other: B/W dotted ribbon, SU Markers (on bella), Copic Markers (on scale)
