Handmade Bliss - Stamping Bella

Morning Everyone

I hope your weekend is going well.  I am back to work tomorrow after a week off so I am feeling a little fed up!!  Still I am only back 3 weeks then off again into the sun so can't complain!!

I am here today with my inspiration post using products from Handmade Bliss.  

Here is my card:

I have used a gorgeous Stamping Bella image called "Uptown Girl Brittany the Birthday Girl", this is currently sold out on the website but please see here for all the gorgeous Stamping Bella images.  She is coloured with copics and I have teamed her with Taylored Expressions Rainbow Brights paper pad available here and also the sequins to match here. 

I added some glamour dust and some flowers from my stash.  The banner is a Joanna Sheen die.  

Our challenge is still running at the moment which is "Anything Goes" so please do pop on over to the main challenge blog!

OK, that's me done, off for a nice walk now!

Love and Hugs

New Challenge - Handmade Bliss

Good Morning Everyone

I hope you are all well.  I am a little under the weather at the moment which I hope will clear up soon. 

Today we have our 2nd challenge starting over at Handmade Bliss, thank you so much to everyone who took part last month, it was such fun seeing all your gorgeous makes!  Please pop on over to the challenge blog to see if you were a winner!

This month our theme is a colour one:

Some nice summer colours here!  You need to use at least 2 of these colours.  You MUST use a product which is available in the Handmade Bliss store (however you don't need to have purchased it from there). You also need to be a follower of the blog.

So here is my card:

My card makes me wish I was on holiday sitting in the warm sun!  I have used Samantha and Sierra Take A Selfie from Stamping Bella available at Handmade Bliss here.  The sentiment came with the stamp. I teamed them with papers from Taylored Expression Build A Scene paper pack which you can get here.  The paper pack is great, I have nearly finished mine already!  

She is coloured with copics and I have just added glamour dust and pearls.  I hope you can join in this month.  The winner will receive a £15 voucher to spend in the store, and there is some great things to buy!!  Pop on over to the main blog for more inspiration and all the details!

That's all from me now. I am going to have a lie down!

Exciting times at Handmade Bliss!!!

Hi Everyone!

Yes I am back again after just one day!!  I do have some exciting news today.  If you haven't checked out the new online store based in the UK called Handmade Bliss you need to do it right now. 

 The lovely Joanne is the owner and she will be selling some gorgeous ranges particularly from the USA which you can't readily get here in the UK. Waffle Flower, Alley Way, Avery Elle, Taylored Expressions and many more VERY exciting ranges to come!  

I am very lucky to have been selected for the new Design Team and we will be showcasing the ranges through the challenge blog.  We will run a monthly challenge with lots of inspiration in between.  So please make sure you pop on over the challenge blog and start following us there too.  We also have a Facebook Page which will also give you updates on what's happening!  

So today is our the start of our May challenge and the theme is:

"Anything Goes"

So to start things off I have gone with a Stamping Bella image (which I love!), here is my card:

She is called Uptown Girl Fiona Loves Flowers and can be found in the store here. I coloured her with copics and used papers from First Edition called Spring Drop.  I just added flowers, pearls and glamour dust (what would we do without these!!) There is a sentiment included with the stamp but I didn't use it on this occasion. I wanted to keep it open for any occasion.  

So next you have to pop on over to the challenge blog to meet the lovely ladies on the Design Team and I hope that you can join us for the challenge this month!  

Have a great day!

Love and Hugs
