I love receiving gift cards!

My brother & (future) sister-in-law gave me a nice big gift card to Michael's for my birthday. And, like usual, I couldn't wait to start spending it. Can I just say how much I love the $1 crack bins there. I found some really cute ribbon there today, plus some of the thinner, solid-colored ribbon is only twenty cents right now! You can't beat that!

Must get back to work & figure out how on earth this new blackberry they sent to me works. :)

Virtual Stamping Bella Daze

I didn't think I'd have time, but I was pretty busy creating cards this weekend for the Virtual Stamping Bella Daze. There we so many great projects posted by everyone & it really got my creative juices flowing. Here are a couple of my entries.

Bella Image Swaps

I want to thank all the wonderful ladies who have swapped with me. It's so nice to get more Bellas to create with!!!

I wanted to share the wonderful card that came along with Tracy H.'s images. It's so cute with the bling on the bad & the sparkly detail. Thank you Tracy! She has a great blog. Go check it out!

Received some new Bellas in the mail yesterday

....from AnnaMarieabella! Thank you for the great variety. I received some Tinkerbellas, Chefabellas, & Frizzybellas as well as some great recipe cards!!!

I'll post pictures when I get around to coloring those little ladies in. :)

My first Bella cards!

So, I finally got around to figuring out how the scanner works & now I am going crazy uploading images. I made these cards as soon as I recieved my first order of bellas.






On this birthday card I love the sparkle on the brads! -->

First post is the hardest.

After several weeks of having my blog, finally, my first post! Nothing great to post yet, but let me see if I can find a couple pics of past cards to post to get this party started right.

This is a simple baby card I made a few months back using my quickutz dies. I love my quickutz. I think they have the cutest dies. I couldn't tell you the paper....I'll never pay that much attention to what I'm doing. :)
