I am so stinking excited to be guesting overย on the Stamping Bella blog all month! A little about me for those who I haven’t yet met: I color all the things. Yes, #allthethings. Give me any stamp with lines and I’ll go at it with some coloring medium or another! I create a couple videos a week, so if you’re a visual learner, come on over and visit on my blog and YouTube channel and we can have some fun. Oh and be sure to visit on Instagram too…since I’ll be sharing more Stamping Bella fun there all month, too!

The first installment in my four Bella videos uses Beachabella – I’m first off jealous she rocks a bikini like that. But I also wanted to share some mistakes I made along the way with my Copic markers. Oopses can be our best way to learn, and since I make a lot of them – well, heck, I’m a learner extraordinaire!

One piece that looks like one!
Your card and coloring is fantastic!
Must have been a Vampire in a previous life so I mostly avoid direct sunlight, so it’s shorts and a shirt for moi ๐
I have been known to wear both. Love your card ~ your coloring is fabulous! Bellas are probably my most FAVORITE stamps!
A grandma wears one piece. That’s me.
A two piece…..that looks like a one piece! Gotta cover all this old flesh! LOL! ๐
I’m a one piece kind of gal these days.
For water aerobics it is always a one piece. Don’t want to lose anything!
Uggh, no bikini for me–one piece all the way!
A one piece swimsuit.
A one piece but I have worn a two piece that definitely covered everything! ๐ The bottom had a skirt attached. It was actually kinda cute.
I wear a bikini
A rash guard shirt and board shorts for me!
Two piece but it really looks like a one piece ๐
No one really wants to see me in either one! LOL!
One piece! I haven’t had a bikini body in many, many years. :-<
One piece these day, but a bikini when I was younger. Love the colouring and the stamp.
I usually wear a tankakini. So it’s a two piece but still covers everything.
Definitely one piece…too old and fluffy for anything else, although I think my next dip will be in shorts and a tee!!
Tankini for me… I went to South Beach last summer, I was the only person there not in a bikini!
I mainly wear a tankini but I have one pieces, too. No more belly showing since having kids! LOL Thanks for a chance to win. ๐
Bikini when younger, but now a one piece.
A very bold printed one piece!
Your card is STUNNING!! At nearly 60 years old I wear a one piece bathing suit of course!! But when I was a teen ager I wore a bikini proudly. lol
If I put on a bathing suit, it would be a one piece with a cover up.
One piece for the least amount of therapy of those within eyesight distance!! Oh, and a cover up. ๐ beautiful coloring as always!
I’ve always done what I can to NOT have to wear a bathing suit but now that I have a daughter (who is turning one on Monday… Yikes!), I don’t want her missing out on fun things because of my insecurities, so one piece for me! Although maybe someday she’ll empower me even more!
Such a beautiful coloring! I prefer to wear a one piece ๐ thank you for the giveaway!
xoxo Olga
I like a two piece but the top is long. I think they are called “tankini”. Cute card. Very summery!
I’d prefer avoidance! But if I must then a tankini with shorts. I think it’s pretty funny you call your mistakes a “mistake”…..girl, I can show you some mistakes!!! lol
After kids I am a one piece girl butt I’m working on getting my bikini body back. Love the card by the way.
Two piece bikini and I will as long as my body stays in good shape -passed the big 50,still looking good -yoga!โบ
Two piece that looks like a one piece – with boy shorts! Love all your great video’s!
Even though I lost some pounds, I still feel more comfortable wearing one piece. Thank you for those mistakes where I can learn from them too!
One piece cuz nobody wants to see that!
There was a time I looked pretty darn good wearing a bikini but then gravity took over and now it is a one piece ++++ size. Thank you for all of your tutorials.
At 73, a one piece is so much more flattering. It has been a long time since I looked like Bella but I remember those days!
My Bikini is at the cleaners–guess I’d wear a one-piece.
Definitely has to be a 1 piece or one that looks like a 1 piece. Didn’t wear bikini in my young years!
Two pieces that look like they’re a one piece.
Hi Sandy,
A one piece for sure!!
Always a one piece. Comes from being a competitive swimmer. Can’t ‘bare’ wearing anything else.
One piece, a great coverup for walks
One piece wishing it could be two! Beach scenes are so much fun to do!
Both! LOL I shouldnt wear a bikini but when I go to Mexico I just dont care ๐
Neither…lol. But, I love coloring beach scenes!!
IF I work up the nerve I put on a one pieve and a great big coverup!
at 69 it’s one piece all the way.
Not even one piece/two piece… I go for the shorts style that offer plenty of cover-up for those chunky-dunk thighs!
One piece…..the beach is my favorite place! I love the card beautiful!!
One piece my dear! After 7 kids One piece is all this chick can do!
