Yoko and Ono!

Hello everyone!  I hope you are having a lovely weekend so far.  I love Sunday mornings - I always manage to sneak in a couple of hours of crafting before Steve gets up!  Today I have my Stamping Bella DT card to show you using the very sweet Yoko and Ono Ketto...

I love these gals!  I think I'm going to send this to my niece - she's also a good friend to me and I think she'd love this!  I matched this stamp with papers from the My Mind's Eye Sweetest Thing Tangerine pad, a touch of lace, the sentiment is from Lil' Inker Designs' 2 Cute Ink Hamster Cupid stamp set and the hearts are from the Lil' Inker Designs Of The Heart die set.

Well, that is it from me today - thanks for visiting me and I'll be round to see you later on my blog rounds!

Happy Saturday everyone!  Mary J here to show off some more gorgeous Quixotic Paperie goodies!  I've been dying to get my hands on the new Big Anyas so as soon as mine arrived in the post, I made this birthday card using The Greeting Farm - Anya Celebrates...

She is so beautiful and I luuuurve her shoes!  I used papers from the My Mind's Eye Nostalgia pad lots more My Favorite Things DieNamics...

I have some fab news - I got an email from Em of Stamping Bella recently asking me to join her design team!  As I work with her goodies all the time anyway, it was a no brainer to say YES!  So, as from today I am a Bellarific Babe!  So here is my very first DT card for Bellarific Friday using last week's sketch...

I knew straight away that I wanted to use my very first SB love - ipodabella!  She is so cool and sassy - the perfect image for friends' birthdays!   And here's the sketch...

Okay, so next week's challenge is "Halloween" - either an image or use spooky colours!  Don't forget to email your creations to Em at Stamping Bella by Thursday 11 October so they get posted in next Friday's post as well as a chance to win some Bella Bucks!

Day 4 of the All That Scraps October previews!

(Please scroll down for my MilkCoffee DT post!)

It's the fourth day of previews for the All that Scraps October new release and today we are showcasing the very beautiful Sweet Novembers and here is my DT make...

This is Sweet November Harmony and the sentiment is from the AmyR Scripted Greetings sentiment set.  Don't you love the bells?  These are from the set of three CC Cutters Bells.  And how about that music background on the paper?  That is the Joy Music stamp that comes with the score and also the lyrics underneath (which I didn't stamp on my card).  Take a closer look at these newbies...

Not long now before you can buy the new release in the shop - tomorrow!  Take a look at the rest of the Sweet November previews over at the blog here and put your name down for a chance to win some of the new release!
