*** Sweet Stampin ***

 Hello folks,

Another weekend ahead with very gray days forecasted. Well we can stay indoors and peruse the pre-black friday sales that are happening....do we buy now and take advantage of the early sales or wait for actual Black Friday....oh there are decisions to be made.  

It's Time for a new challenge at

Sweet Stampin Challenge

where it's our fabulous 15th BIRTHDAY so we would like to see some  Birthday creations.

I've stamped a Tilda  stamp and coloured her with Copics. 
MFT sentiment stamped using black Memento ink and die cut using MFT dies.

Christmas at the Belli Challenge

Hi everyone,

Hope you're having a good week so far.

....and will someone please turn the thermostat down....it's TOO HOT!
On days like this I only go outside to water the garden, then run back inside to the air conditioning.
Thunderstorms are predicted so hopefully things will cool off a little soon.

Today starts a new challenge at the

Belli Challenge

and for the next 2 weeks Darsie has chosen the theme

Christmas

For my card today I rummaged thru my boxes of Magnolia stamps and chose a cutie that's never seen ink until now.    She is Tilda with cross stitched heart and is from 2011 I think.

I really liked the wooden heart but needed to change it to match my design.  I first painted it with TH Tattered Rose Distress Crackle Paint, let it dry and then added Fran-táge.  

The sentiment is from LOTV, stamped in Versafine Sepia.

Gold lace is Websters Pages...not sure where the ecru lace is from

DP is MME, Lost & Found, Market Street

Base is Bazzill Walnut Cream

The lush seam binding is MemrieMare

SB Layered Elegant Swirl added at the bottom.

I'd like to enter the following challenges:
