Bellarific Friday!

Well, it's Friday....and a Bellarific one!

The challenge this week was to use a stamp that hasn't seen ink yet. One of my goals for 2010 was to use all of the stamps I have at least once, making this challenge a great help! I do have a few uninked stamps, but my choice was Chloe the Teacup girl.

Have a great weekend!

Supplies
Stamps - Chloe the Teacup Girl (Stamping Bella)
Paper - Kiwi Kiss, Choice Snow White, Pretty in Pink, Raspberry Tart DP
Other - Nestabilities, Ribbon, Copics

Another Krafty Thursday!

I can't believe it is Thursday again already! This week has flown by!

This is my creation for Jeanie's That's Krafty Thursday Challenge. I LOVE this card! I am so happy with how it turned out! It doesn't look like it in the picture, but the window and the "open" sign have all been popped with dimensionals.

Thanks for stopping by! I'm off to "find" a bella that hasn't been inked up yet for the Stamping Bella Bellarific Friday challenge!

Have a great afternoon!

Supplies
Stamps - Bakery Business (Taylored Expressions), Window Shopping (Taylored Expressions)
Paper - Kraft, Bo Bunny Kitchen Spice, Desert Coral Light
Other - Ribbon, Copics

Oh Happy Wednesday..

I have had such a productive week so far...in terms of cardmaking! My desk is an absolute disaster, but I do know where things are, and maybe it will just keep me working!

I have two cards to share today....the first is my take on the Mojo Monday 136 sketch. I have never made a square card before, but I think that I will definitely be making more of them!


This is Emma, a Puddle Jumper from Claudia & Co. She is designed by Lori Boyd, an incredible artist! I stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black, and coloured her with my copics. The papers in the card are all from K & Company's Wild Raspberry line.

This next card is very simple, but I LOVE it!


The image is You Light up my Life, from Tiddly Inks. I am a HUGE fan of Christy's work, and this digital image is no exception! I printed it on Choice Snow White, and coloured it in with my copics.

Enjoy your Wednesday! (which means tomorrow is That's Krafty Thursday!)

Card 1
Stamps - Puddle Jumper Emma (Claudia & Co.); sentiment is Stamping Bella

A Double Challenge!

This is my second post today.....I actually did get a lot accomplished this weekend! Hopefully the trend continues!

This is my card for Sparkle's Christmas Card Challenge #21, and Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch #66. The sketch is so simple, but I love it! It really makes the image pop! The image is another gem from Bugaboo Stamps, and it was coloured with my copics!

That's it for today! Off to do some colouring while little ones sleep!

Supplies
Stamps - Bugaboo Stamps, sentiment is AmyR Stamps
Paper - Kraft, Choice Snow White, Pink Pirouette, Real Red, Ski Slope DP
Other - Copics, Nestabilities

Have You Been Caught by the Bug?

I certainly have...hook, line and sinker! Thanks again to the Spotted Chick.....Ms Jeanie!


This adorable image is one of the Flower Bears from Bugaboo Stamps. Isn't is precious? This is my card for the Catch the Bug Challenge, using the sketch provided and making the theme April Showers. I got the sketch....and I think I got the theme, which I went more towards the May flowers! All of the supplies from this card were from the March Key Ingredients kit, from Taylored Expressions. Have I mentioned how much I LOVE these kits?!?!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great Monday!

Supplies
Stamp - Flower Bear (Bugaboo Stamps); sentiment is AmyRStamps
Paper - Crate Paper Brook, Kraft

I'm not old...

I'm aged to perfection! Isn't this sentiment perfect? I am hopelessly addicted to Bugaboo stamps....courtesy of the Spotted Chick herself! Thanks for gettin' me hooked Jeanie!


This is Stella....and it's her birthday. This card is for my mom's birthday, which is tomorrow....hopefully she doesn't decide to starting blog hopping! Anywho, this card is not only from Jen's Sketch for You to Try, but it also works for Jeanie's That's Krafty Thursday! (so excited you made this a challenge!)

Stella was printed out onto Choice Snow White cardstock, and was then coloured in with my copics. The patterned paper is from the Cosmo Cricket Early Bird line.

Hopefully I'll have some new goodies to play with this weekend....I am waiting on my Taylored Expressions Key Ingredient Kit (and some of the new releases!), and my latest Stamping Bella goodies!

Have a great Thursday!

Bugaboo Christmas...

The weather it WAY too nice outside to even be thinking Christmas, but I got this adorable Rudolph from Bugaboo Stamps a while ago, and just had to use him in their sketch challenge!

As is likely the case for most of us stampers out there....I have a TON of designer paper, that I had been hoarding, not wanting to use any of it. That has changed, and I am starting to make use of all that paper! It doesn't seem as though the pile is getting any smaller though!

On to the card...Rudolph was printed on Choice Snow White cardstock, and was coloured in with my copics. The paper is the Wintergreen DP from Stampin' Up!

Enjoy this gorgeous Wednesday!

Supplies
Stamps - Rudolph (Bugaboo Digi Stamp); Sentiment (AmyRStamps)
Paper - Choice Snow White, Kraft, Soft Sky, Sage Shadow, Certainly Celery, Wintergreen
Other - Copics, Nestabilities, Twine, buttons, Apron Lace Border Punch

Sweet Sunday Christmas...

Sorry for the lack of posting lately! The family and I just returned from Cuba, so we are just getting everything back to normal. I am hoping that normal will have me creating and posting a card more regularly!

Here is the card I created for Sparkle's Christmas Card Challenge #20, and Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch #65. Sparkle's challenge was to use a digi image, which ended up working out so great....I had coloured this adorable Rudolph image from Bugaboo Stamps before I had checked to see what the challenge was! (almost like I am psychic!) I printed him on Choice Snow White, and coloured him in with my copics. The paper is SU! Ski Slope, one of my favourite Christmas papers!

I think this might be one of my favourites!

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies
Stamps - Rudolph (Bugaboo Stamps digi image), Sentiment (AmyR Stamps)
Paper - Whisper White, Choice Snow White, Kraft, Baja Breeze, Ski Slope
Other - buttons, twine, copics

Sweet Sunday Thanks

I made this card for one of my "part-time" children. They used to live across the street from us, but we moved last summer, and that is no longer the case. Her and her sister come out to visit now almost every long weekend. They recently spent their March break with us, and this card is just to thank her for all the help!

This is Star Bugg, another great image from TiddlyInks. I printed her onto Choice Snow White and coloured her in with copics. Her wings were coloured with Shimmerz Gold Glimmer Blingz. The paper is Lemonade from Basic Grey. The sketch is Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch #63.

Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies
Stamps - Star Bugg (TiddlyInks), sentiment (AmyR Stamps)
Paper - Purely Pomegranate, Choice Snow White, Kraft, Regal Rose
Other - SU Border Punch, Nestabilities, Copics, Shimmerz

Christmas Cards with some Mojo!

Isn't this little bugg adorable?? She is from TiddlyInks digital images, and when I found this site....I bought a LOT of them! Her name is Christmas Holly. I used the Mojo Monday sketch for the card, (MOJO133), and Sparkle's Christmas card challenge #18, which was an inspiration challenge.
I printed her out onto Choice Snow White cardstock, and coloured her in with my copics. Her wings were coloured with Moonlight Smooch. The paper is Ski Slope from Stampin Up!
