Awsome Saturday!!!!



Wow! Wow! Wow! what an amazing day after a veryyyyyyyyy long week. Since so much has happened this week I wont bore you all with the little details. The worst of the week was when the girls school called to say that Penny had walked through poison ivy walking 2 school. (for those that know my youngest Penny you will know this is a Penny thing she did...lmao) *sighhhhhhhhhh

As a result my creativity has been at a low point this week but I was able to make these two cards. Now I am sitting here with all these ideas running through my head so I am gonna try and make something tonight and hopefully post them tomorrow. :)
The best part of the week was today. I was able to take a class at Bella!!! Nicky you rock! The cards we made are awsome and learning new techniques is always a plus. For those of you

that dont know yet Nicky now has her own blog and you can view her AMAZING work there. Here is the link for the ladies that would like to take a look. http://www.creationsbynicky.blogspot.com/

Ok enough yapping I am gonna get to work and post some of my new cards tomorrow. TYFL!

A Nice Quiet Day!



Niko was a sweetheart and took the girls down to mom's today so I can have some time to myself. The week started off really good but seamed to go downhill real fast yesterday. Sitting here today has not been a good idea either as I tend to sit and reflect on things that have happened. So I gave myself a swift kick in the butt and decided its my time so I am going to play with my bellas! Here are the two cards I worked on today. TYFL!

Belinda Bumberboots!


Saweettttttttttt!!!!! I love this fairy!!!!

Could not wait to make a card with her. This is what I came up with. TYFL.

TY Emily your design team has outdone themselves.

Another Late Night!




Does anyone else feel that the only time they have to be creative is late at nite? I guess there are way to many distractions during the day. I guess I should also point out that I am not the sharpest knife in the drawer when it comes to computers so you may have noticed that there are a few subtitles missing from my blog. Not sure where they went! But I will look into it this weekend...lol. My biggest issue tonight is with myself. I am hoping that when you all come and visit me here you speak "typonesse" (I cant spell if my life depended on it...lol)

I want to send warm hugs to Emily and her staff at http://www.stampingbella.com/ . For the sistahs that live near the shop and that I have met on my many adventures there "hi!" It is the one place I find to be a warm and comfortable environment. But I must warn you all if you are ever planning a visit and your planning on taking things to work on there is more laughing going on than productive work...lol. I love seeing how excited Emily gets with every new product that she orders. And yes she does say OMG OMG OMG ...lol. She is amazing to say the least. I want to also take the time to thank Nicky for all the little tips and advice that she has been giving me. She is by far the most talented lady that I have ever met! I hope that one day my work is even a fraction as good as hers is. I also want to say hi to Dena who works so hard at making sure all our orders are filled properly. One of these days when I go for a visit I am going to steal her out of her work area and strap her to a chair where she can join us in the giggles. :) Last but not least Ryan. Well what can I say. He is an awesome man that sure knows how to put up with a lot of woman in one room.

On another note and I feel you should all know this. As a member of the bellaholics group i read every post that I get an email notice for. I love them all! In the last little while I have noticed sistahs asking where to purchase certain items. My advice to this would be to email Emily herself because all the items you are all asking for she carries in the store. :) And the nice thing with that is she takes the time to explain each item(for the sistahs asking advice). I have noticed that her products are top of the line and its true when she says if she sells it she has tried it and believes in it! Go Emily!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh I never talk this much...lol. So as it is late I will post my cards and hope you all enjoy them. TYFL!

Two Posts In One Day!



Ok now this does not happen often butI figured may as well. I feel like I have been MIA way to long! Thank you Nicky for the direction of how to make "kristas flowers" look beautiful! Thank you all for looking.

Wow!!!





Wow!!!

I can not believe this much time has passed since I last posted something. :(

Seams the time has gone by so fast. Where so I start. I had a girlfriend (*waves @ Donna) come visit for a few days from Calgary. *Sighhhhhhhhhhh I sure miss all of you from back home :( . My oldest Maria had her 11th Birthday on May 13th. We just had her party yesterday and if I remember tomorrow I will post her birthday invitation. We are just wrapping up our first official long weekend to kick off summer. :) And I must say I have missed my bellas BIG TIME! :( Was nice finally getting some time to come sit and play again!

I want to give special thanks to Nicky over at stmaping bella for showing me how to make her fancy flowers. THANK YOU Nicky! Your da best. Ok enough for now cause its really late and my four little alarm clocks will be up soon for school. Thank you all who come and visit my blog and see what I have created it means a lot to me.

Happy Tuesday!






Is it just me or do you find that as soon as the weather warms up we tend to spend more time outside but yet at the back of our heads is this little voice that says go back inside make something? .... lol. This is how I have been feeeling for the last couple of weeks. After the longgggggggggggg winter we have had here in Ontario I am so ready for summer! I finally stepped away from everything and decided it was "me time". I colored in these images last week and they have been sitting on my desk screaming at me to come finish them...lol. Oh did I mention that being outside more the housework has been neglected? ....lol. So nice and short yet again and I will make sure I let you all know how cleaning went in my next post. :) TYFL!

Happy Thursday!






Almost back to normal! I think? ... Lol. I was convinced I would not bounce back to normal mode after the events of last week. I am sooooooo happy to say I finally was able to come up here and create something. :) I was able to finish my first fella so I am excited about that! Then I thought why stop there. Ordering pizza for supper sounds good if it means. I can stay up here and play more...lol. Ok I will hush now and let you see the cards. TYFL!


P.S. I want to say a very special THANK YOU to Nicky at Bella for all the help with the cardstock.

P.S.S. Em dont forget if asked I only spend $9.95 there at a time. :)
