One Sketch - Three Cards

This sketch of Taylor's really lent itself to the images in MissyB Designs Fall and Winter Mini set. So, here are the cards I made last night - I had the images already colored, so it made putting them together a breeze!

Supplies:
Stamps: MissyB Designs - Fall and Winter Minis
CS: More Mustard, Chocolate Chip, WW, Basic Grey
Ink: Palette Noir
Other: Diamonds in the Rough Cuttlebug Folder, 1 1/4 & 1 3/8 Square Punches, 1/2 Circle Punch, Copic Markers, SU Build a Brad

This next one I think is just too cute! I love this little ghost image - the smiling face is perfect! It's hard to see, but I used the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder on the striped Basic Grey paper.

Supplies:
Stamps: MissyB Designs - Fall and Winter Minis
CS: Going Gray, WW, Basic Grey Scarlet's Letter
Ink: Palette Noir
Other: Copic Markers, 1 1/4 & 1 3/8 Square Punches, Stampin Dimensionals, Red Ribbon, Cosmo Cricket Halloween Rubons, Swiss Dots Cuttlebug Folder

Here is the last one I made using this sketch. I used the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder on the Old Olive card stock. I'm really liking this folder, so you'll probably see more of it on other designs. :)

CS: Really Rust, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, WW, Basic Grey Mellow
Ink: Palette Noir, Old Olive
Other: Ribbon (from my stash), 1 1/4 & 1 3/8 Square Punches, Stampin Dimensionals, Swiss Dots Cuttlebug Folder

I have more to post of cards that I made for World Card Making Day yesterday. Hope everyone had fun on WCMD and was able to get things accomplish!!

BELLI Challenge #32 - BACK TO SCHOOL

What is the Belli Challenge you ask?

I copied the following from Chris' blog - she is the creator of the BELLI Challenges.

Each week, I try to give us a challenge that will use things we have lying around our stamp rooms! With a constant flow of new things coming out, I tend to forget about the other things I have and they quickly become clutter!

This Weeks Belli Challenge is BACK TO SCHOOL!! You can embellish anything with any of your BACK TO SCHOOL things.

Here is what you need to do...Make a completed project embellishing your work with ANY BACK TO SCHOOL THEME. Share the link here in the comments linking to my Blog and CBC32. When you post to Splitcoaststampers or to your Blog, be sure and put CBC32 as the KEYWORD and mention of the challenge - with a link! I will do a random drawing for all participants and have a special pack of assorted Designer Papers for the winner! (Be sure to post on Chris' blog to be included in the drawing - you can find her blog here.)

Be sure to check out what everyone else has made and make a comment too for them please! We all LOVE comments. It is fun to see what everyone is thinking about what we are creating! :)

Thank you for stopping by! Be sure to upload and share your Art with us! We love to see it! Have a fabulous day!

The above sampling are puzzle pieces. My 4yr old's first day of preschool is today. So, in preparation for helping her learn her alphabet better - I made the puzzle pieces. They are grouped into 3 for a couple reasons - the Cuttlebug template comes this way :), it will be easier to teach the letters without having to focus on too many at once, and I felt adding more images would get too confusing.

I made this box to put the puzzle pieces in. I got the template from Nichole Heady's blog . It was super quick and easy to do. I stamped the lid with a couple letters and images to represent those letters.

That's all I have for now. Hope you enjoyed my take on the BELLI Challenge. Be sure to check
out the Design Team blogs - they did an awesome job on the challenge.

Supplies:
Stamps - various companies (Inky Antics - Alphabet; Cornish Heritage Farms; All That Scraps - CC Designs; LIWP; SU!; Sweet N' Sassy Stamps)
CS - WW, Ballet Blue, Chipboard (to make the puzzle pieces sturdy)
Ink - Palette Noir, Ballet Blue, Real Red
Other - Copic Markers, Some images hand-drawn, Cuttlebug Puzzle Die-Cut

Thanks for stopping by today!!

MissyB ATC Swap

I joined a MissyB Designs ATC swap over on the MissyB Yahoo group. I decided to use the 'You're Bugging Me' set. I also got out my Cuttlebug for the background. Isn't this butterfly just too cute?!! After coloring in the butterfly with my Aqua Painter, I outlined the inside of the wings with a blue Sparkle Sakura Gel Pen. The antenna were also traced with a black Sakura Gel Pen.

Stamps: You're Bugging Me (MissyB Designs)
CS: Chocolate Chip, Cool Caribbean, WW
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Cool Caribbean
Other: Cuttlebug background, Coluzzle, Aqua Painter, Sakura Gel & Glitter Pens, Chocolate Grosgrain Ribbon

Cakeabella Birthday

Another belated birthday card, this one is for my niece though. Another Bella stamp used here - Cakeabella. I used my Happy Birthday Cuttlebug embossing folder on the yellow card stock. This was a fairly simple card to do, which is what I needed since I was already late! I colored in Cakeabella using various inks as the previous card. Layered her onto Cranberry Crisp card stock. I tied the ribbon around the card first and then popped up Cakeabella with Stampin Dimensionals.

All supplies SU! unless otherwise noted
Stamps: Cakeabella (Stamping Bella)
CS: WW, Yoyo Yellow, Cranberry Crisp
Ink: Basic Black, various colors for watercoloring
Other: Aqua Painter, Cranberry Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon, Stampin Dimensionals, Happy Birthday Cuttlebug embossing folder
