Betty Bumblethorpe is Here


Just Inklined is a relatively new dig stamp line and they have a whole line of these expressive seniors. I had so much fun shopping and can’t wait to share more of them with you. I thought Betty Bumblethorpe fit perfectly with the quote.

I used Diamond Stickles along the frame of Betty’s glasses for sparkle and Diamond Glaze for the lenses. I opted for a purple tinted locks as that will be my choice when the time comes.
