First off I would like to say that there are so many great blogs out there it is very hard to choose just a few and every blog is inspiring in it’s own way. With that said I would like to award the following people with the Javablu award.
Mel http://www.hulachickabella.blogspot.com/ who is new to our group and adds so much spunk I just wish I could bottle it up and take it with me.
Tangi http://tangerinesdreamcreations.blogspot.com/ who we all know is so multi-talented we are always learning from her.
Lisa http://www.bylisac.blogspot.com/ I just love everything she posts, again multi-talented.
Theresa http://lil-bittacreativity.blogspot.com/ my first bella sistah that has helped me along the way.
Jessica http://www.scrappiegirl.blogspot.com/ my dear friend Glitter Bella from clear around the world who makes awesome bella cards with her family.
Now on to other things. I haven’t been making many cards lately because things have been just a little hectic around here. We were all very excited because we were going to have four new babies in the family! We have a new grandson named Marcus born July 14th who of course is beautiful. I also had two nieces and one nephew all expecting babies in their families. Therefore, I have been focusing my time on making baby things instead of cards. Sadly, my niece lost her baby a couple of weeks ago and then two days ago my nephew lost his baby. This is just so difficult and I’m not even the one that lost a baby. There is nothing I can do for anyone and I absolutely hate feeling helpless.
The couple of cards I have made are:
I made this card for a teenage birthday. It was fun but the little pieces were kind of tedious. I think it turned out okay though.
This is the first card I have ever made as a sketch challenge, to be entering it for blog candy is a little nerve wracking for me. This absolutely awesome blog is Trina’s Timeless Treasures and you can still enter by going there http://trinastreasures.blogspot.com/ I had lost the name of Trina and her blog for a short while but I am persistent and as you can see her it is…I found it!! I think you have until the end of the month to enter her drawing…good luck to all.
Aren’t these just adorable? I made them with the Cuttlekids. I picked them up because I figured I could use them for little kids cards and baby showers. Of course that was before we lost the babies-but I know I will still get a lot of use out of them in the future.

Awesome bella!! I love cuttlekids, my daughter has them and I sometimes think that they are better than my cuttlebug dies 🙂

Wow, this is such a gorgeous card!! I am so glad that you found my blog again!! I love the colors and that bella stamp. Adorable sentiment too!! Thanks for joining my blog candy sketch challenge!
Ahh!! Thank you so much! I read your blog this morning and…well…it’s so crazy…just keep checking your mail! I didn’t even know. I think we are linked somehow. You’ll understand more when it arrives! Love you!
Mel =)
I love that Stampingbella card! The colors are fabulous, LOVE it! The cuttlebug critters are so darn cute too!
Those cuttlekids are absolutely amazing! Can you use the cuttlekids plates in different machines, like the Big Kick from Sizzix?
