Wintery Wishes

I found some time today to play along with MFTWSC148 and decided it was perfect for a sweet PI

I inked up PI Sending You Little Christmas and coloured the image with copics.  I paper pieced her coat with the DP MME's Mistletoe Magic.  The Sentiment is from MFT's ALM Ski Bunny set and it's stamped with distress ink in chipped sapphire.  The sentiment is cut with MFT's fishtail stax die-namics.

Just wanted to Say HI

This was the view from my stamp room window yesterday....

So as an act of protest to the winter weather I decided to ink up a summer image from Stamping Bella and this weeks Freshly Made Sketch (FMS109) was perfect.

I inked "Senior"-ita Harriet with memento tuxedo black ink and stamped onto bella's bestest white card stock.  I coloured her skin with copics, and the rest of the image is coloured with pencils blended with  mineral spirits.  The DP is Glitz Paper's Uncharted Waters.

A GorJuss Sweet Sunday

For Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch (196) I instantly knew I wanted to ink up one of the new Gorjuss Girls Stamps I have.  I found them this summer at a fabulous scrapbooking store in Kelowna BC called EverAfter Scrapbooking - if you're out that way you should stop in and see Amanda!

The image is stamped with memento tuxedo black ink onto bella's bestest cream cardstock and coloured with copics.  The image is mounted on cream cardstock which I inked with antique linen distress ink.  The DP is Bo Bunny's Serenade Collection and for the panel behind image is some washi tape - I have a huge collection and I'm determined to use some of it!

Please stop by the rest of the Sweet Sunday Stampers blogs to see their creations and if you play along with us this week don't forget to link your card on Karen's blogs

Time Flies...

Today's Bellariffic Fridays challenge was to use FALL COLOURS on your card.

I wanted to ink one of my new "Senior"-ita stamps - "Senior"-ita Dolores.

The image is stamped with memento tuxedo black ink onto bella's bestest cream cardstock and coloured with a combination of pencils and mineral spirits and copics.  I shaded around the image with antique linen distress ink.  The DP is Bo Bunny's Autumn Song.

On the inside of the card I took a piece of bella's bestest cream cardstock and inked it with rusty hinge, dusty concerd, mowed lawn and wild honey distress ink.  The sentiment comes with the stamp

Next weeks Bellariffic Fridays challenge is a Sketch.  Email your card to Em by Thursday to be included on Bloggabella and win gift certificate

Have Yourself....

A Merry Little Christmas!  I have SO many MFT stamps that haven't been inked so I'm hoping to play along with more of the MFTWSC's - or should I stay start playing along with the again!

I was a little stumped when I first saw this weeks sketch (MFTWSC146) since I don't have a big die-namic like the sketch, but they are just a guideline right?!

I inked up MFT's Seasonal Sentiments Christmas tree with crushed olive distress ink and stamped the image onto cream card stock.  I then fussy cut the image out to make it my focal point.  Since I didn't need a sentiment I added some ribbon and a tiny rhinestone.  The DP is Collage & Press Studios City Sidewalks.

Do what you makes you Happy

It's time for a Sweet Sunday Sketch, and I loved the sketch Karen had for us

For my card I inked up one of Stamping Bella's newest images - Senior-ita Gloria.  I am such a fan of this stamp line!!

The image is stamped with memento tuxedo black ink onto bella's bestest white card stock and coloured with copics.  For the shading on the ground I used pencils and gamsol.  For the tab I used MFT's fish tail stax die-namics, then added a button to finish it off.

The sentiment that comes with the stamp is fabulous and are words to live by!
