sketch book

Hey y'all!

Thought I'd post a little journal I made

I'm always looking for a place to jot down my sketches so I picked up a moleskine cahier.

I stamped flower garden on some vintage bookprint, coloured with prismas and then smooshed some shimmerz on top for sparkle-

I went kinda messy cause I like it that way

Hey there!!!

I dug into my kit stash and came up with this card

Thanks for peekin'

a flower for you.....

well

I made an easle card...hmmmph

there is a story behind this one, the bella babes issued a challenge, I worked ahead, then they changed it...lmfao

I am NOT a fan of these but whatevs..its done

I used rose with a hearty centre and stamped it multiple times on patterned paper to layer the flower-

I crinkled it all up cause I didn't like it flat...hahahaha

well thats it thats all for today!

rustic burlap tree

hey y'all!!

I'm feeling a little festive so I thought I'd post a project.

I saw this is an issue of Sommerset and LOVED it!!

I just ripped up cardboardand paper then frayed some burlap

slapped on some paint and glitter-

I used a spool for the trunk- easy peasy

Bellarific Friday Christmas woodgrain?????

So...

I was feeling a little non traditional when I did this card

Our theme was Christmas or Holiday this week

I stamped and pieced artsy house on top of a misted kraft base that I embossed with embossing creme and thewoodgrain template.

I added a bit of snow and some tranceparency snowflakes, a wood button and some twine.

Well play along and email your creations to the bella herself- there is always bella bucks for brags.

Next week's theme is ALL WHITE..now isnt that interesting???

LSC Poinsettias

Char picked poinsttia's this week..

I was a bit stressed..Im all like wtf how do I don't have a ponsettia stamp, or paper, or anything....

Well Homesence to the rescue, I was wandering and saw a wee package of Dear Lizzy Christmas and guess what...yeah- a Poinsetta was front and centre..and $1.99 shuuuut up, right....

So glad I found these-

bear ornamenty tag thing.....

its Sunday...I dont know where the weekend went....

I made up a couple of these ornamenty-tag things.

I used a $1.50 wooden snowflake from Michaels which I misted then applied some matte medium.

I mushed it through some art glitter and shaved ice glitter- I am beyond addicted to that stuff!!!

Now....I know that this is supposed to be a white bear ' cause I used

polar bear circle

So do you think he should be a tag or an ornament???
