I'm just sittin' out here watchin' airplanes take off and fly...trying to figure out which one you might be on...

Happy Friday, sistahs! I'm back with another post today...it's time for Bellariffic Friday! This week we had a sketch by the fabulous Ebrubella. Check it out!


This one was fun! I used the cute little Matilda on her Swing for my card this week.


She was stamped on Bella's Bestest Paper and colored with Copics. The kraft layer behind her was spritzed with the coolest stuff...SEI's Tumble Dye Spray. Here's a closer look:


I added the sentiment (which also comes with the Matilda stamp) and a couple of die cut clouds to finish it off.

You try to scream...but terror takes the sound before you make it...You start to freeze as horror looks you right between the eyes...You're paralyzed...

Hey y'all! Happy Tuesday! Sorry I'm so late posting my Skipping Stones Design Tuesday Sketch card. I had some family things to handle, and now that those are out of the way I can flex my crafty muscle! Here's this week's sketch from Amy Sheffer:


This week we are featuring the super cute Happy Halloweenie set, which is also on sale!! You can check out all the details here. And here's my take on this week's fabulous sketch:


Fun, huh? I got some new goodies from my LSS the other day and thought they went perfectly with the sketch and this set. Here's a closer look at the details:


I seem to be on a black glitter kick...LOVE that stuff! I cut the Grapevine Wreath from Kraft cardstock and swiped my black inkpad across the top. Then I colored the raised edges with my two-way glue pen and sprinkled on the glitter. LOVE it!! I kept the inside of the wreath in tact and popped the ghost image up on foam dimensionals in the center. Accented by a little Glitz Stickles and some Copic marker shading, it floats above the sentiment, which I thought was a fun one. Then I finished it all off with some black ribbon.

Thanks so much for visiting today...don't forget to visit all the SSD girls and guests to see their take on the sketch!
Have a fabulous day!!

But ev'ry time I see your face, I get all choked up inside...

Happy Friday, everybody! How was your week? I tell you what, I'm so happy it's Friday! Do y'all have any fun plans for the weekend? We're just going to hang out and clean the house, but I do plan on sneaking over to my local scrapbook store to check out the new goodies sometime over the weekend. *wink*

So, by now you know the drill...it's Bellariffic Friday! This week, our sketch was brought to us by Paulabella.
Hmmm...it looked easy enough...but I found myself totally stumped by the small rectangles, which I was certain were sentiments. Here's what I came up with:


And to top off the trouble with the sketch, for some God forsaken reason, I decided to use purple...which I NEVER use! Makes for a very interesting (and long) stamping session, I'll tell ya that much! I started by stamping Addy 'tude is a Cupcake Diva in Memento Black on Bella's Bestest Paper and coloring her with Copic Markers.Then I cut and embossed the image using my Rectangle Nestabilities and added a teensy black mat. I chose 2 patterned papers from Memory Box from my stash (I have no idea what collection they're from, sorry!), and matted those in black for my base layers. I did some crazy stitching around the edges and mounted the base layers to my 5 1/4" square card base. There's a black strip running across the seam of the 2 papers that you can't quite see, and it's punched with the Dotted Wave edger punch. I wanted some ribbon there, but I decided on some white May Arts lace, and I gathered and stitched it to the base layer, then adhered some Grape Juice baubles across the center using Zip Dry glue.

Then I mounted my main image onto the card with 2 layers of dimensionals and added the Here's to You sentiment to the top left. Then I added the Cupcake Diva sentiment (comes with Addy), cut with a teeny Labels Four Nestability die. To finish off the card, I covered Addy's glasses with Diamond Glaze, blinged up her necklace and earrings with Diamond Stickles, and puffed up the cupcake tops with Liquid Applique. Whew! Yep, it took me forever, but I'm pretty happy with how she turned out. Whatcha think?

After all that yapping, I bet you're ready for some pictures! So check out all the eye candy from the Babes and the Sistahood on Emily's Blog, k? She might even have a fun announcement for ya, too, so go say hi! I hope you have a wonderful weekend...see y'all later! MWAH!
