The only card I managed to make was this baby card. I just LOVE those $1.99 funny lil’ Inka stamps! You can see them HERE!! Speaking of Inka, I should have specified this in my last post. All of the WOOD stamps will be to me hopefully tomorrow (Tuesday, July 1st) The clear sets (Christmas AND Halloween) won’t ship until mid July, so a few more weeks! But at least we get SOMETHING right?

Hello! WAHOOOO for the weekend!! I am so excited! We have Brett’s last T-Ball game, then a pizza party. That should be fun, but it’s sort of sad at the same time. They’ll get a trophy, I can’t wait!
Ready for some fun crafting news!? I have a fun sneak peak AND a blog to tell you about! My dear friend Lynda was asked to be part of a SUPER talented group of ladies, to do weekly challenges together. It is called Our Creative Corner! They are all amazing!!! You have GOT to check them out. Every Saturday they post a challenge. Their first was a sketch, then a button and brad challenge and now a Basic Grey Challenge. Well THIS week if you play along, you could win a $15 Gift Certificate to my store Jacksonbelle Embellishments!! So you should get over there and hopefully play along! You have until next Friday to enter! They were so sweet to let me play along as well, so here is the card I made!
(THANKS AGAIN OUR CREATIVE CORNER)

Do you not LOVE those images!? It is part of the NEW huge release of Inkadinkado stamps!! You can view them all HERE on their website. They should be to ME for the store on Tuesday!!!!! Honestly…I wish Inka would just give in and adopt me already! lol.
I embossed the sentiment and snowflake in silver embossing powder. Then I added the green, red and maroon highlights. I’ve all added stickles on them, but it may be hard to see in the picture. This card shines!

Hello! Happy Thursday! Hope you’re all having a great week! I am filling in for Julia this week in posting the Ways to Use it Challenge at Splitcoaststampers.com today! I thought it would be fun to use anything that had to do with birds!
By birds I mean any sort of bird like creature so my roosters count…right? HA HA!
This stamp just screams bright fun colors to me, so I paired it with my Cosmo paper pack, Get Happy! The back strip is a transparency sheet with Key Lime Shimmerz on it! I just applied it with one of my watercolor brushes. It did take a little longer to dry on the acetate, but that’s to be expected. After I was done coloring the image, I highlighted them with the Angel Wings Shimmerz! These should be to me next week! I cannot WAIT!!
I hope you like the card!

Happy Tuesday everyone!! It’s time for another Jacksonbelle Embellishments Tuesday challenge!! This week we decided to use ANYTHING from the store! :) It was fun! I’ve had this Modern Liberty stamp just staring at me for a few weeks now that I really wanted to use, so it worked out perfectly! I paired it with the Dude Paper by Prima to be different! I thought I would make it a brighter patriotic card? Not quite sure WHAT I was thinking, but I do like how it turned out!
*ETA* I embossed the the stamp with detail white embossing powder on red paper. Then I cut it out and adhered it with pop up glue dots!

Hello!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! We did, playing out on the slip and slide ect! (NO, not me…the kids lol) I was also introduced to a VERY cool new product! It’s called Shimmerz! They are lil’ bottles of shimmery paint! They are FANTASTIC!! Unlike spray’s, you just paint them on! No globs! They work on ANY type of paper and dry much more quickly then I thought they would! I have a little more info on them on my store blog HERE! You can also visit the Shimmerz Blog HERE!
–
Of course I couldn’t wait to use them so I paired them up with my new EUPHORIA paper!! OK…can we say GORGEOUS paper! I just LOVE IT!!! I am not sure if you can tell, but I painted all the distressed edges, buzzz and the Euphoria paper with the shimmerz! I used the Angel Wings white on most of it. Then on the horizontal strip of paper I used the Royal Red!

Here is a close up of Mr. Buzzz (I just LOVE that stamp!)

Hello!! I hope you all had a wonderful week!! We sure did!! Too bad it seems like we were gone for 10 minutes! lol! We saw a grizzly bear and lots of moose, elk, deer and pronghorn!
It’s so incrediblly beautiful up there. You know that’s why I am Jacksonbelle right?

Before I left, I made this card for my mom! Her birthday is tomorrow! She is a fellow moose lover and she loves to garden, so fits her perfectly! I call her little lady all the time too, so it’s just a fun card for me to give to her!

The hardware is from We R Memory Keepers that can be found HERE. The paper is “older” Daisy D. I thought it would be fun to do a different pattern again with the piercing on top! I just made lil’ diamonds this time!

It’s soooo pretty and different, I love it!! I also thought I’d pair mine with the new Inka Quartet stamp! These birds are killin’ me they are so cute!! Here is my card!

I thought I’d do something different on the sewing, since I HAVE to sew on everything I do! lol. So I turned the template and did 3 big zig zag lines! It was fun to try something different! I added black bling on the top and on the rubon! The rubon’s are new from Daisy D as well. The ribbon lace from Melissa Frances!
