My Kinda Diet

I wanted to try and get another challenge done on the Stampin' out Alzheimer's blog because I think what Jen has done is absolutely amazing!!

I chose the Verve challenge; it was hard to pick because they were all so amazing! I used my Elzybell from Just Desserts- and I LOVE her idea of a diet (I am sure my trainer at the gym wouldn't agree!!)

She is stamped with mementos ink on Gina K's Pure Luxury CS and coloured with copics; I did paper piece her dress.

The cb is SU's Riding Hood Red layered with Baja Breeze that I embossed with swiss dots. I stamped my sentiment, which came with the stamp before embossing.

The DS paper is from Bella Blvd & it's layered on Riding hood Red and paper pierced. I layered the image Pumpkin Pie, Baja Breeze & Riding Hood Red & added some Pumpkin Ribbon

Hope you have a chance to take part in some of the amazing challenges on the Stampin' out Alzheimer's blog & have a fantastic Sunday!

Two by Two

My BFF Karen and Jodi Collins are hosting a challenge for Taylored Expressions on Stampin Out Alzheimer's, and I HAD to play along!! The challenge is 2x2; use only brown and pink paper and 2 embellishments.

I chose a stamp from Taylored Expressions Whimsical Wishes set called Fresh Flowers. The image is stamped with Memento ink and coloured with copics, I admit I used a little green on the leaves; didn't want dead looking leaves on my flowers! I was on the phone with Karen at the time (you know our afternoon chat) and confirmed that was OK.

The cb is Pretty in Pink, and the DS paper is from Bo Bunny. I cut the image with nesties rectangles and layered it on rectangles cut from the DS paper. I used my SU punch for the edges of the strip and added some chocolate chip ribbon and some pink rhinestones

If you haven't had a chance make sure you pop over to Stampin' Out Alzheimer's and play along with the challenges, Jen Tapler has done an amazing thing by setting up the blog and all the challenges & raising so much money for the Alzheimer's Society

Thanks for stopping by & have a great day

Leslie I'm OK!!!!

My wonderful friend Leslie who lives in the Toronto area always starts to worry if everything is OK when I haven't been posting in awhile; she is so sweet!! I must apologize to her & my bff because they have both tracked me down to make sure all was well & it is; I've actually been out more then home!!

I finally made a card today & for this sweet BEEday Huggabugg I used the Mojo 88 sketch; which can be found on the Mojo site & Stampin' out Alzheimer's. This is an amazing challenge blog started by Jen Tapler; if you haven't signed up please do, I am sure we either have someone in our lives who has been affected by this disease, or know someone who has.

I've had this image stamped and waiting to be coloured for awhile- this sketch fit perfectly with the flower nesties that I wanted to use. BEEday Huggabugg is stamped with mementos black ink and coloured with copics. I paper pieced the presents so that they are away from the bug.

The DS paper is from American Crafts, and yes that's summer sun on this card; I swear I am still on my original package!! I finished it off with some Bella bonbons in cotton candy

Just a reminder this weeks Bellariffic Friday is another amazing sketch from Nicky - make sure you email your card to Em by 5pm EST Thurs to be entered in the draw for bella bucks

Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!!
