Happy Friday everyone!! Since it is Friday, it is time for Forgotten Stamp Friday. If you aren't familiar with this challenge, it is a personal challenge that I have posed to myself to make me use some of my un-inked, unused, and neglected stamps. The only rule is that it has to have been un-inked or owned for 6 months. Digi images count, as well...we tend to collect those, and then never use them, too! If you decide to play along, just be sure to enter your name in the Mr. Linky, and when uploading to an online gallery, use the keyword...FSF27.
I also played along with this week's Mojo Monday sketch, and Bella Friday post to use a Stella or Bella.
For my card, I stamped my Leaning Tower of Stella on an X-Press It Blending card, and then colored it with my Copics. She was then layered with Cotton Candy, Sour Apple, and Wild Cherry card stock from My Favorite Things. I used two different SU ribbons, and some yummy MME Lime Twist. I used some Michael's brads, and a Creative Express Spiral Clip.
Well, that is it for me for now! Thanks for stopping by, and I can't wait to see if you play along!

Forgotten Stamp Friday-Week 19
Hey everyone, and welcome to Forgotten Stamp Friday!! Not familiar with this challenge...well, you should be!! Every week, I challenge myself, and all of you, to make a card using your poor, lonely, dusty, unused, forgotten stamps. I feel guilty with the sheer VOLUME of stamps that I own in comparison to what I ACTUALLY use, so this challenge is one that helps me to ease my guilt a little. There are NO rules, just that you
a)PLAY ALONG
b) use a stamp that is either unused or owned and un-inked for 6 months
c) come back and add yourself to the linky thingy so I can see what you've done
d) be sure if you upload to SCS, that you use the keyword FSF19...that way I can find you!!
For my card tonight, I used one of my FAVORITE Stamping Bella images, Agnes Ketto. I stamped my image on an X-Press It Blending card, and then colored her with my Copics. I then layered her with Hot Fudge, Spearmint and Orange Fizz cardstock from MFT. I used the super cute My Mind's Eye Stella Rose Mabel paper. My white ribbon is also from MFT, brads are from Michael's, and my spiral clip is from Creative Express. I followed this month's Sketch For You To Try...mostly, except I added my sentiment. It is from a There She Goes set.
Well, that is it for me for now!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!! Don't forget to add yourself to my linky thingy.

Forgotten Stamp Friday-Week 3
Hey everyone, welcome back to my blog!! It is time for my Forgotten Stamp Friday challenge!! As some of you might have seen, I started a little "personal" challenge called- Forgotten Stamp Friday!! Basically, I am challenging myself, and YOU, to use some of those poor, dusty, neglected, forgotten stamps from your collection!! I have created my own "keyword", this week's is FSF03. Last week, I had TWO people play along!! I was so EXCITED!! Thanks Dawn and Jodi!! The only rule is to use a stamp set that hasn't been used in at least 6 months.
For my card tonight, I not only used a stamp I have had for over 6 months, but one that has NEVER seen ink. Why do I do that?? SUCH a cute image!! I started by stamping my Polly Packages image from Stamping Bella, on a piece of MFT Cream Perfect Panel. She was then layered with Wild Cherry and Black Licorice. The embossed snowflake layer is one of the sold pieces from my Paper Studio paper pack. I used Mercy's sketch, as well.
Well, that is it for me for now!! I can't wait to see if you play along!! Be sure to use the keyword FSF03, or come back here and leave me a link in the comments!! There is no time limit, just be sure to use the right keyword, and have FUN!! Have a great day!!

My First Bellarific Friday!!
I have been subscribing to the Stamping Bella blog for a long time now, and every week I promise myself I am going to play along....and then I never get to it. I swear, my job gets in the way of my fun all the time!! LOL!! I was(am) up late, so I decided to play along...FUN!! I don't know if I emailed my entry too late, but hey, I tried!!
This week's challenge is a sketch challenge...bet you know why I played along now, huh?! For my card, I used one of my new, never used, stamps...Agnes Ketto. Isn't she FABULOUS??!! I paired her with some Pixie-licious DP from Cosmo Cricket. My cardstock colors are Sour Apple from MFT, Bermuda Bay and Elegant Eggplant. The sentiment I used is from Verve. All my ribbons are from SU, as well as my brads.

Final Notebook and My Sale!!
Howdy ya'll!! LOL!! I realized today that I have shown you all the notebooks I made for my nieces, except this one!! Before I get to the details of it, I have listed a TON of Stampin' Up Stuff for sale on Splitcoast Stampers. To avoid confusion, unless it stops moving there, I am going to leave the list just posted there. Here is a link to the thread and directions on how you can get what you are wanting!!
Onto my notebook!! This is my last one to show you, which kinda makes me sad. I made it for my niece Samantha...lovingly known as Sam. She USED to be a tomboy...but when I saw her on Christmas, all she could talk about was her BOYFRIEND and I am PRETTY SURE she had on makeup....UUUUGGGGHHH!!! Anywho, I stamped my Ambitious Cowgirl from Stamping Bella on an MFT Perfect Panel. She was then colored with Copics and cut out using my Oval Nesties and Cuttlebug. Then, I layered her with Riding Hood Red and Chocolate Chip. The DP is all from SU, as well as the ribbons, corduroy buttons, and hemp twine. The white layer behind the main image was run through my Cuttlebug, as well, with my Paisley folder.
Well, that is it for me now!! Have a great day!!

A Bella Sketch
So, I am ALWAYS saying I am going to do the Bella sketch, and I never get around to it. I am still late, but I did get it done this week, lol!! I have been a stamping MACHINE up here in the mountains, and I actually managed to get 8 cards done, considering my recent funk I AM THRILLED!! All the credit goes to Jess, Mercy and Pam...they got me motivated and kept me going!! I got a VERY late start both days, but I am still THRILLED with what I got done and am actually surprised considering the fact that I was laughing hysterically for the last two days...seriously!! OMGAW!!hehe.
Anyway, here is my card for this week's Bella sketch. I started by stamping my Appley Bowl Huggabugg on an MFT Perfect Panel with Memento Tuxedo Black. I then colored her with my Copics. She was then layered with Bashful Blue, Real Red and Old Olive Cardstock. The DP is from the Summer Picnic DSP that is retired from SU. All my ribbons are from SU, and my spiral clip is from Joanne's.
Well, that is it for me now!! I will be back tomorrow with my Celebrating MFT Day/MFT Sketch card!! Have a good one!!

FS SgtStamper...yayyy!!
So, I don't really know her all that well, but when I saw that Jami(SgtStamper) was the Featured Stamper this weekend, I was so excited!! She is so talented and is SO SWEET!! She always leaves the nicest comments on my, and so many others work!! I chose this card of Jami's to CASE. I changed the main image, but kept it a Bella, the colors, embellishments, and sentiment. I changed a lot, but I think you can still see the similarities between the two cards. For my main image, Matilda Muffinbread, I stamped her with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Gina K. 120lb white card stock. I then colored it with my Copics and added some Dazzling Diamonds glitter to her wings with my two way glue pen. All of my embellishments are from SU, except the white organdy, which is from SU, but retired. The DP is from Sassafrass Lass and I paired it with Cool Caribbean and Regal Rose. Isn't this such a CUTE image!! Love it!! Well, that is it for me now, have a great day!!

Cupcake Sketches
Here are a couple of the cards that I made for the Taylored Expressions Cupcake sketch challenge. They were celebrating having one year of sketches, so I decided to play along...of course, there were nine of them, yikes!! This first card I made using the SU Bella Blossoms set. I cut my white layer out of PTI white with my Circle Nestabilities. The DP is from the Raspberry Tart pack. The image was stamped with Rose Red ink. My Rose Red layer was run through the Cuttlebug with my Swiss Dots folder. I stamped the sentiment with Kiwi Kiss and punched it out with my Word window punch. This card was made for Monika's sketch.
For this second card, I used my Teacup Daisies image from Stampin Bella. I have had this FOREVER and it hasn't seen ink yet. Since my goal this year is to use what I have(and I never said a thing about not buying more, I just need to use what I have too, hehe), I tried to find an image I could use for this card. I had this piece of DP for ever, and I loved the colors, so I decided to use it with this card. It is from SEI and I paired it with Groovy Guava, Wild Wasabi and Ruby Red. Along with the SEI DSP, I used some Wild Wasabi DSP. I colored my image with my Copic markers and paired it with some YUMMY white satin ribbon that I got from My Little Ribbon Shop. I did some piercing, added some Bella Baubbles and embossed the white layer with my Swiss Dots folder. The sentiment is from the Whipper Snapper set, Posies For You. This card used Jami Sibley's sketch.

Raspberry Tart DSP=YUMMYYYY!!
Okay, so I am OFFICIALLY in LOVE with this paper, and I think I MAY have a new favorite color combo!! I had to go out and run some errands with DH, but while I was gone, all I could think about was getting home and stamping more with this yummy paper and combo. A few weeks ago, I won a blog candy giveaway from my friend, Julie Lacey. She sent me a few of her favorite things, which happen to be MY favorite things, so it was DEFINITELY a win/win!! I got some YUMMY May Arts ribbon, pearls, and a handful of stamped images from Stampin' Bella. I actually own this particular Bella, but shamefully, she has never seen ink. Since Julie's images were laying on my desk, I decided to go ahead and use the ones she sent me!! I started by coloring my LatteBella with my SU markers and then outlined it with a Cool Grey Copic No. 3 marker. I have been throwing around the idea of getting copics, and actually got enough money from friends and family for Christmas to get a BUNCH of them, but I am so fickle about it...do I need them..do I HAVE to have them??? Jury is still out, but let me tell you, I am VERY tempted!! Anywho...I colored her and then layered her with Rose Red CS. Using the SCS sketch from this week, I adhered my panels to a piece of Whisper White that had been run through my Cuttlebug with the Paisley folder. I decided to also use this card for the Holiday Extravaganza Challenge number 4, which was to use one piece of DP, two main colors and a neutral, and at least 3 punches. Since I had to use three punches, I added the sentiment panel..but after investigating the Sketch Challenge gallery, I decided that I wasn't the only one, so no worries. I also saw at the last minute that for the HEC04, we were supposed to use ribbon and no other embellishments...so.....pay no attention to the brads in the corner...hehehe.(thing Wizard of Oz..I know, I am TOTALLY lame)!!
While looking at the Holiday challenges, I saw that challenge number three was to make a "scrap-ling". Now, I have never heard of one before, but I decided that I would TRY to make one...good grief, you don't realize how small 1 1/4ins is until you try to work with it. I decided to use the same colors, ribbon, and stamps as my Lattebella card and the fabulous card I posted earlier. I don't know what these are supposed to be used for, but I thought I would use it as a book mark to send to my friend who just had a birthday today...hmmm, wonder who THAT could be???LOL!! Luv ya Jodi!! I didn't do anything special on this, except for cut out the flowers and glue them on...easy peasy!! It was a GREAT way to get rid of scraps though!!
Well, that is it for me for right now..off to work on the Featured Stamper challenge...I am on a roll baby!!!

Hope
So, unless you live under a rock, you are probably aware of the fact that this month is Breast Cancer Awareness month. On SCS, they are dedicated this weeks challenges to the cause, so it is Pink Week on SCS. All of the weekly challenges have a pink theme(optional of course), and if you choose, which I totally do, you can send your creations into the chosen organization, which is Chemo Angels. Since I am terrible about explaining things, here is the link to the front page story at SCS, and it will link you on further to the details. Today's Ways To Use It challenge was to focus on just one word on your card. You were allowed to include a main image too, as long as there was only one word on the card. I chose Hope(from my NEW Hampton Arts sentiment set Lee sent me), because honestly, it says it all. My image is from Stamping Bella, and is called Causabella. I stamped Bella twice; once on Whisper White and once on my Bella Rose DSP. I paper pieced the dress and then colored the rest with my SU markers, re inkers, and a blender pen. The colors on this card are Pink Pirouette and Riding Hood Red. I did a lot of piercing and added a ton of silver brads. The panel under the image is some more Bella Rose DSP and it has a piece of the new Pink Pirouette ribbon from SU as well as a piece of red taffeta. I used one of the ribbon slides from the Stylized Silver Hardware as well as a square frame. My sentiment panel was created using my Scallop Square Punch, a 1 in square piece of Pink Pirouette, and my white Hope panel that was punched out with my Large Oval Punch. By the way, my sketch is from Julee Tilman's Mojo Monday Sketch from this week. Hopefully, my nephew will stay asleep long enough for me to work on the MFT sketch challenge, it is awesome!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

A Bella SFYTT
Hello everyone, hope where ever you are, you and all your loved ones are safe!! Last night, my DH and I went to dinner together, and there getting gas at the three gas stations that surrounded the restaurant we were eating at, were 15 trucks from a power company out of Ohio. I assume they were on their way to help out in Texas, and I gotta tell you, it made my heart happy to see them headed out to help with the terrible situation left after Hurricane Ike ravaged the gulf coast of Texas. Here in Illinois, we are experiencing the leftover effects of Ike and even lost power for a few hours this morning. My mom sent me a picture text showing me the tree that just barely missed her house too. My DH got a little whiny about the loss of power till I pointed out how wrong he was and how it could be SO much worse. He quickly shut up!! So anyway, here is my card for Jen del Muro's Sketch For You To Try. This weeks sketch was also part of a challenge being sponsored by Stamping Bella. All you had to do is make your card using a Bella image to be entered into the drawing to win a $15 GC to the Bella store..yay!! I used this super cute Wreathabella image(I guess I was inspired by their holiday cards...Christmas is coming soon...yikes). She was colored with my SU markers. I added some liquid applique to the hat and shoes to make them poufy. The bow on the wreath was stamped twice, colored and then one was cut out to give the bow some dimension. The DP is by Basic Grey and is part of the Fruitcake line. I paired the paper with Cranberry Crisp and Always Artichoke. The buttons are from SU, and I added some silver twine to them. I pierced around the edge of the different squares and added some silver brads to the corners. The sentiment is from the SU set Holidays and Wishes.
Well, that is all for me for now, I am off to stamp now that the power is back on!!

You Make Me Happy
So, I should be napping...but my stomach hurts worse when I lay down...make any sense??Not to me either, but I digress. So instead of sitting around, I decided to make a card for today's sketch challenge. Recently, I decided to mount all my Bellas on ez mount, and I am so happy I did. What I did notice while doing this is the fact that I have a shameful amount of them that I never use. I decided that when I saw today's sketch, I would use this super cute "friends of all shapes and sizes" stamp from Stamping Bella that when I first saw Jen use, I had to have. I bought it immediately, and like all my other "must haves" it sat on the shelf unused. I stamped it with Black Stazon on GP white cardstock and colored it in with my SU markers, I then covered the whole thing in Perfect Pearls to make it shimmer. The sentiment is a rub on from SU. I added a bunch of white mini brads, some spiral clips, and several different ribbons. The paper is by Chatterbox and is called Happy Bloom( I got it at the Prettie store, and since it is 45% off, now is a great time to go get it!!). Well, I need to get back to the recliner...its days like today that I wish I had a laptop so I could sit in my recliner with it!! Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!

Thinking of You
After fighting the good fight, I finally broke down and ordered this GORGEOUS stamp from Stamping Bella. I had seen it on a lot of the blogs that I love, and tried to resist it, but it is just too stinkin cute!! So, this Bellas name is Eloise GreenGrass and she is part of the ChiChibouile line-doesn't that name just scream CUTE AND FUN. I stamped her with Black Stazon on White paper and colored her in with my SU markers. I then blended the image a little with my aqua painter and added some glitter to her wings...SUPAH SPARKLY. I cut her and the layers out with my Nesties. The colors on this card are Pretty in Pink, Regal Rose, and Bordering Blue. The sketch is from today's SCS sketch challenge. It was guest hosted by WendyBell'sGirl, Amelia. She is so CUTE!! I used some Pretty In Pink paper from the retired Hostess Prints Pack for the triangle patterns and put some white brads in the top and bottom corner. All the ribbon around the middle is from SU. The sentiment is a rub-on from the retired SU Love and Happiness rub-ons.
Well, that is it for me now...gotta get to bed!!Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!
PS. Don't forget, my pal Jessica over at There She Goes.... is starting her own new stamp company!! She is taking pre-orders at a discounted price until Friday so run on over and check her out!!

A Bella Sketch For You To Try
Happy Sunday everyone!! I hope your Sunday is going as fabulous as mine is!! I spent the whole morning putting together a couple of shelves for my bed room and talking to my mom(who is staying here between shifts at work to save money on gas), and catching up on my blog surfing. While blurfing around, I stumbled upon Jen del Muro’s Sketch For You To Try. I always love her sketches, but never get around to doing them for some unknown reason(we all know I stamp enough). I decided to take some time away from the computer and participate in her challenge. The SFYTT design team had challenged themselves to use a Bella imagefor this sketch, so I decided to also. I have a bunch of Bellas, and they never get inky, so I decided to pick one that I have never used before. I stamped Jammybella in Black Stazon on watercolor paper and colored her in using my SU markers and aqua painter. The paper is from the retired SU Dots and Dashes, and I added a scalloped strip at the top. The rhinestone brads are by Making Memories and have a larger card stock circle behind them. I attached a silver spiral clip with some yummy sheer polka dot ribbon that I got from Embellish Online. I wasn’t sure what to do with all the white space, so I pierced a few holes in each corner to break up the white. Be sure to go to Jen’s blogand check out her other designers creations, they are fabulous!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!

But Seriously....
GO RAMS!!!! BOOOOHOOOHOOO!! LOL
Today's limited supplies challenge on SCS was the make a card inspired by the Superbowl. We could use a football, team colors, a hunky player, or a famous commercial. Since I drew a blank on most of that, nor did I have any football stamps, I decided to use my Beerafella stamp from Stamping Bella. I know it it too cold for shorts most places, but hey, it works!! Pretty self explanatory today. Stamped the beerafella stamp on watercolor paper, colored it in with su markers, highlighted with my silver gel pen, and put some brads in. I also put some icicle stickles on the ice in the bucket. Now I really need to go help my mom pack, or she is gonna have a fit!!! Thanks for looking and have a warm and safe day!!
