Belli Challenge #75- Sponsored by Shirley's 2 Girls

Hello there! It's time for another Belli Challenge! This weeks challenge is to use Halloween colored bling! We also have a fabulous sponsor this time- Shirley's 2 Girls!


I picked up these black rhinestones at Michael's forever ago. Finally used them! That's the great thing about the Belli Challenges, they're all about using the stash you already have. You can't tell in the picture but I went over various parts of the image with my clear glitter pen too. It looks pretty cool in real life, if I do say so myself!

Be sure to check out the Belli Blog for more great inspiration and all the challenge details! The keyword for this week is CBC75 if you upload to SCS or PCP.
Thanks for stopping by!

Sorry posting has been so light lately. Life is just crazy busy right now. Hopefully this weekend I'll get some crafty time in so I actually have something to share! Saturday is World Card Making Day, after all!

Oh my head...

Sorry for the long breaks in between posts. I've been having some killer sinus issues along with my usual migraines thrown in just for fun. Good times. I love it when the seasons change. Actually I do love it, just not the allergies that come with it.

Anyway... here's a quick card using a Page Maps sketch from December.

Belli Challenge #74- Sponsored by Creative Cuts and More

This weeks Belli Challenge is sponsored by Creative Cuts and More! Have you checked out their stuff? OMGosh! So much die-cut-goodness! The challenge is to make something Fall/Halloween themed.


I 'm always looking for Halloween ideas that are not candy. I know, I know. Halloween is all about the candy. :) Anyway... I stole- er... um... borrowed this idea from Courtney.

I used a Crayon Box die cut and decorated the outside of it. Inside is a couple crayons and some fun Halloween images to color. I stamped the images on some white scraps and trimmed them all the same size. Easy and guaranteed not to give you a sugar headache.






I also got this cool pumpkin tacky tape die cut. The die cut is all one piece but I wanted a bit of dimension. So I took off the top liner and cut it up to make the lines and stem of the pumpkin. Stuck the paper back on the tape and glittered away! Then I removed the paper again and used green glitter to fill in the rest. I stuck it to the top of a tin I've been hoarding forever, added some ribbon, stamped some leaves, filled it with candy and I was done! Makes a cute little treat, if I do say so myself!

All the challenge deets and more gorgeous die cut examples can be found on The Creative Belli Blog. The keyword if you upload to SCS or PCP is CBC74.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a super day!

Birthday Card

I said I'd be back with something crafty and then I disappeared for a week! Sorry! But I'm back now! :)


This is a birthday card I made for my aunt. Her birthday was a month ago. But I didn't want to show the card until I knew she had it. And since I'm such a slacker... I finally took it to her last night! Sorry Kathy! You know I love ya! :)

I'm not going to post tomorrow, but Wednesday is the Belli Challenge so I'll have more eye candy for you then. Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!
