I love Friday for a variety of reasons, but one reason high on my list is Bellarific Friday! :) I just love to get my Bella stamps inky and play along with the Bella Babes each week for the chalenges! A few weeks ago I made this Mavis card for the weekly challenge, and incorporated some Kraft cardstock into the design so I could also enter my card in a newly discovered challenge. Bella Babe and fabulous Jeanie Witmer has a challenge called That's Krafty Thursday and she challenges everyone to create using Kraft cardstock. Well, Kraft cardstock and I have this love affair going on... I think it's getting serious... so I HAD to enter her challenge! And lo and behold, I got this wonderful email from Jeanie on Wednesday night letting me know that my Mavis card had been chosen as a Top Krafty Chick! I was so seriously thrilled, and just admire Jeanie's work so much and now I get to display her cute spotted hen on my blog, too! :) Stop by Jeanie's blog sometime and see her wonderful designs! You won't be disappointed!
The Bellarific Friday challenge this week is a sketch challenge... my favorite! And since I spent some time this week helping my sweet friend Cindy price a bunch of her stamping stuff for a moving sale, I just couldn't resist buying some of her old Bella stamps from her... they needed to come and live with me! So I inked up Billybootabella to make this sweet, Spring-time card using the sketch.
The papers I used here are the new Stella & Rose from My Mind's Eye, and I added a gorgeous green ribbon (from LeAnne!) and a hand-cut cloud.
