Hand Stamped with a Little Lagniappe

Hard to stay white

The limited supply challenge on SCS was to make a white based card.  I have a hard time not layering.  It was a quick card though.  The colors used are Brocade Blue, Bordering Blue, Ruby Red and Summer Sun.  The set is SU's Time well spent.  This will be a level 3 hostess set in the new catalog.  I really like this set.  You can really do a lot with it.

Tanya is the Best Bella Sistah

Look what I got yesterday!  My Bella SIstah from the bellaholics yahoo group sent me this card full of support and encouragement on my new exercise adventure.  Then this evening the UPS man brought me this SU Pewter Hardware.  I have been wanting the hardware for over a year now.  I can not wait to play.  Thanks Tanya.  You are the BEST

Dashing Latte

My favorite SCS challenge is the sketch challenge.  Roz has some of the best sketches.  I liked this sketch alatte!  I used SU's retired Like it a Latte set.  The colors are Real Red, Old Olive and River Rock.  I used the SU Dashing Designer Paper.  The ribbon is olive and red.  Thanks Roz for a great sketch!

Rose Celery Pie

The colors for yesterday's SCS color challenge were Certainly Celery, Rose Red and Pumpkin Pie.  I used Amy Rysavy's sketch.  I am loving using my Bellas.  This is PMS Bella.  The good life stamp is from the $1 bin at Michael's.  I made another card with this sketch and color combo.  Will show you another time.

Tennibella is out of here!

My sister Stephanie and my cousin Claudia both asked me to make them some Tennibella cards for their tennis team captains for Christmas presents.  I finished Stephanie's group last night and they are off to the post office.  I hope they make it their for Thursday.  Tennibella was one of my first bella's.  I used Sage Shadow, Chocolate Chip and Old Olive.  Off to make Claudia's now.

Viola, a Coupon Holder

Lori Ames had some great holiday ideas on her blog.  She made a receipt holder for Christmas shopping.  I decided to make mine a coupon holder using the SU Viola set.  The colors are basic black and real red.  I am going to stamp some tabs to add the different categories.  Hope you enjoy.

December Bella Babe Challenge

On the bellaholic Yahoo group each month they have a Bella Babe Challenge.  This is my entry.  I was needing to make a card for my cousin who is getting married.  She wants to give this to her bridesmaids.  This is a start.  I paper pieced all of their dresses.  I used dazzling diamonds on the bride.  The colors are Cool Caribbean, Soft Sky, Whisper White and Kraft.  This layout was from one of the sketch challenges on SCS.
