Have a Magical Day!!!

8:26 AM

Good Saturday morning, stampers!! Aren't you glad it's the weekend?? I know I am!!

I got myself the new UnderwatergodessaBella stamp....isn't she beautiful?? Yesterday morning I decided that I was going to make a just-for-fun card and I used Bella Sketch Challenge #68 that is on the SCS forum.

I pulled out my My Mind's Eye papers and Tangerine Tango cardstock for the base. I stamped Bella on Wausau bright white cardstock and coloured her in using my Copic markers. I stamped the sentiment (which comes with the stamp, by the way) and punched it out using my large oval punch. I used my Nesties to cut her out and emboss her and added a trio of orange brads along the side. I pop dotted everything and painted her scales, bra shells and headress with Gold Glimmer Shimmerz!! I added a couple of star buttons, too...but don't ask me where I got them...they've been in my stash for years!!

Well, I am in the midst of packing up a bunch of my stamping supplies and heading over to my stampin' soul sistah's house!! We are stampin' the ENTIRE day!!! I'm bringing a car load of stuff, so I hope they are prepared! *wink* Well, it's all stuff I really need....like pretty much all my Copics, ink, white paper, patterned paper, my Grab n' Go, my Cuttlebug, all my Nesties, my Ott Lite, my laptop, an assortment of stamps, of course....some nibbles for sustenance...and a change of clothes!! No I'm serious!! Apparently we are expected to get a big ol' snowstorm this afternoon and evening and I just might get stuck there overnight!! I hope the girls don't mind me campin' out on their floor!! hahaha!! HI JAMIE AND KAITLYN!!! Fun Aunt Kimmie's comin' to stay!! Heehee!!!

Anyhooooo, hope you have as much fun on your Saturday as I'm going to have!!! Inky Hugs!!!

Lacey Stephens said...: Sounds like an AWESOME day!! Unfortunately, my hubby had to go into work (again), so my day consists of dealing with cramps, a headache, and the kids!! Fun day!! However, I may get to stamp if my head calms down.
This is a super cute card! I love this image...I love all of the Bellas.
Have a fun day.
