Sparkle makes me smile

FotoBella was created with a vision of both elegant books of family history and whimsical scrapbooks of the fun times we had as a family. I spent a lot of time finding tools and supplies to create my vision. I have pulled together these resources here on FotoBella for those of you who are building your own books of beautiful photos. Glitter paper is one of my favorite whimsical media... Sparkle makes me smile. And Best Creations has some of the best sparkle I have seen. Unfortunately the web takes away some of the drama... you only get the full effect in person...

I was so excited to see this year that they have created new kits where you get one sheet of each of their 9 gorgeous papers for a theme, 2 die cut sheets, the coordinating element and combo stickers and chipboard die cuts. They also have new 6x6 Glitter paper pads for each kit, which is great for card making!

There are 5 new paper pads & kits available. Here are some project samples from Safari Boy and Safari Girl.


Check out Travel Forever, Bunny Love, and Let's Party.

FotoBella just got our shipment in!

I just love Graphic 45 paper

At CHA one of my very favorite booths to visit is the Graphic 45 booth.


They have the most creative displays and I just love the classy, retro look of all of their paper lines. We are so excited to have their newest paper to play with! Although, I have to admit, I walk away from that booth a little intimidated, I still am excited to use this paper.

I am also very excited about the new coordinating cling stamps. Each new paper collection has three sets of coordinating cling stamps. This means when I run out of paper, I still can play with these gorgous designs!

Here are the three new paper lines (which of course you can find at FotoBella)!

You can now cut Fabric with your Silhouette!

CHA was great this week. One of our favorite new things is the Fabric Interfacing for the Silhouette! You now can cut fabric with your Silhouette SD or original Silhouette machine! FotoBella just got our order and have it in stock ready to ship!


There are two types of fabric interfacting available.

Silhouette clean cut interfacing has a stronger adhesive for a cleaner cut and less fraying over time. Use clean cut interfacing for projects that don't need to be washed or that can be hand-stitched. Contains 17" x 36" of interfacing.

Silhouette sewable interfacing has a thinner adhesive allowing you to temporarily iron your cutout designs to your project while you sew or stitch them. Contains 17" x 36" of interfacing.
