Stamping Bella Weekend!

As I mentioned in my last post, I have decided to try and do "themed" weekends when I can so that I can USE the stamps that I buy instead of just collecting them. 
There are so many challenges out there in blogland that I love to participate in but lately, I go and find a challenge and then can't decide on what stamp to use! LOL! Hopefully my themed weekends will help me with that! We'll see!
I'd love for you to join me at any time..just leave me a comment so I can check out your creations!!
So for my first theme I chose Stamping Bella! I {heart} Stamping Bella! I think they were my first stamps I purchased that weren't TAC. And I keep purchasing them..just love 'em!
I do NOT expect you all to comment on all my cards on the weekend as I plan and hope to have quite a few and I know it's hard to find time to look and comment so no worries there!
Okay, enough blabbing...onto the creating!! I first found the sketch at CCEE Stampers soo fun looking that I just had to try it!!
Here's what I came up with~



supplies:
I invited a few friends to play along this weekend and had a few tell me they were joining in...be sure to stop by and leave them some sistah love!!
