Bombshell Blog Hop: Homage to Betty Page

Happy Birthday Betty Page!
Welcome to the Bombshell Stamps Blog Hop where we are paying homage to Betty Page, the Queen of the Pin Ups.  Be sure to make a pit stop at everyone’s blog along the hop. If you ever get lost, head HOME and find your way. If you are following the hop, you should have come from the super glittery KATIE  if not, feel free to start from the beginning, or just continue as you are. Make sure to visit everyone as we all have something fun to share! If you get lost, here is the complete list of Hoppers:





I was inspired by a pair of Betty Page themed shoes that were animal print. (SEEN HERE). Arent those Great!? I love them. I have a pair of Candies heels that are very similar to them! If found them on the link Alison provided for inspiration. Instead of me looking at Betty pictures, I saw a link for SHOPPING. Me... interested in shopping... How rare!! Now onto business and my card! Enjoy!



My "Betty" inspired project was made with two sets, Girls Ruin, and Love and Hate. The little birds really did the trick for me, and of course the Bombshell in the beautiful heel. She was inked in Versa fine, colored with Prismacolor, and Stampin Up Marker. Paper Pieced with Recollections- Animal Kingdom. Other papers also come from other Recollections paper. Paper has been Distressed with Versafine and a sponge paint brush.

Thanks for stopping by, next stop is fellow new DT member Torrey @ http://left-field-studio.blogspot.com/. She is pretty rad, not to mention she made all the cool badges for all of us Bombshell Girls, and Pin Ups! Now go and leave her some love! I know you are bound to be impressed.
