it’s PROJECT LIFE TOOOSDAY

and just wanted to share my CRAZY week… ya know.. it seems so boring as life passes and then when I sit down with my pictures from the week.. I am amazed that  I captured some of that..LOL…

For this layout I really only used TAGS and LABELS.. LOL.  I made Paulabella run to Staples in Michigan and buy me all of the Martha Stewart/Avery labels that has ever existed to mankind.. They are GORGEOUS.  Paulabella, an amazing friend, managed to bring her daughter for the “haul”..  She shipped it that night and I got it 2 days later.. it was phenom… UNTIL…. I found out they sold it here.  Hmph.  I didn’t tell Paula so when she reads this.. I am gonna run VERY far..LOL

here’s DENABELLA’s page

Sheryl’s Project life pages

and Helenabella’s pages

This is SOOO much fun to do.. and I kinda feel like a spy looking at other people’s stuff.. but they let me right? LOL

Hope you start doing this sistahs.. you will love it and it’s such a great way to use up your “stash”!

and NO, you don’t need to start on January first.. you can start any time..

Mwah mwah mwah

Em

It’s AJ monday… (short for Art Journaling in case you are NOO (new))

Hiya sistahs!  Hope you had a great weekend!

We were busy in DA bella household.. between hockey practices (i dunno why I say I am busy cuz Ryan does all the back and forthing..  but it makes me tired watching).. and Jayden was practicing her SPEECH.. LOL .. which she did PHENOMALICIOUSLY this morning.. so proud.  Tyler would have had to sit on a chair and face the back wall so no one could see him and then he would cry..LOL.  Funny how two different kids from da same bella can be so different.

there she is.... missss CAAAANNADDDDAAAAA (sung like the miss america winner theme)

 

Ok let’s proceed with a little art journaling/mixed media.  I just wanna tell da sistahs that you can use any substrate to do your journaling on.. whether it is a piece of paper, watercolor block, canvas, canvas board, muslin.. whatever you want to journal on can be submitted (you know there’s a reason for that explanation..LOL)..

The theme this week was using book print, book text somewhere on your page.. whether it be words cut up.. or whole pages as backgrounds..

Let’s see the beautiCIOUSness.. shall we?

So the reason why I say any SUBSTRATE is because I decided to journal on a canvas this week :)…I think it is my “go to” place right now.. canvases.. I think they are YUM…

and here is the close up of the book text.. I just love surrounding myself with old books and finding the right words and cutting them up and putting them together… it’s like a puzzle!

*sigh*.. I love mixed media

Beth's BEEYOOTIFUL page

Christy was so happy with her outcome she sent me 3 different angles and perspectives of the piece... Gorgeous!

Jennifer's page working with her new MOONLIGHT markers on dark background.. i think we need some of those!

Sheryl's gorgeous page.. LOVE the texture!!! I wanna just touch it!

BEEYOOTIFUL page by Lorie.. That bird looks like it has something to say

Lori (aka PINKY DINKY DOOOO)'s gorgeous doodly page!

Now is that not a round of STUNNINGNESS???  OMG!  This makes me soooo happy 🙂

Next week’s theme.. courtesy of DENABELLA is to use TAPE on your page.. washi tape, masking tape (you can stamp and paint your tape too) , do it yourself tape….   HAVE FUN with it!!

Mwah to da sistahs who wanna get MESSY

a liddle bit of dis and a liddle bit of dat….

Hiya sistahs!  I just wanted to share a mixed media piece I have been working on … I lock myself in my craft room in the basement (which has now EXPANDED into the rest of the basement) and I paint and I splatter and I draw… I have the best time doing it… Now my art journaling has morphed into canvases..LOL.. soon it will be murals.. LOL!  So when I tell you to get out your paints.. and just let go.. I really mean it.  WHO CARES what it looks like… I don’t really love to show my work here but hey.. I have to practice what I preach right? right.  So here is my mother and daughter piece.  I really wanted a friendship piece but these came out instead..LOL.  Next will be a friendship piece! (unless something else comes out of course.. I always start out with the best of intentions)… I actually write on my canvases first before I start layering.. a little secret message.. a little piece of me.. and then I become the equivalent of COOKIE MONSTER with paint… “NAM NAM NAM NAM NAM.. ”  (that’s cookie monster eating the cookies in case you didn’t know..LOL)

*sigh*  I loved making them..

I FINALLY went to a dermatologist today about my hands.. any of my local sistahs will know that I have been suffering from what I thought was excema all over my hands – SO painful.    I walk into this office and I thought I was in the FOUR SEASONS spa.  I saw a waterfall.. and then I see an estheticians office.. then i see PRODUCT.. (insert NAM NAM noise again here).. The doctor started  taking all these pictures of my hands immediately.. I say to him ” am I a BEFORE SHOT?”.. he started laughing and says .. “basically”.  He says to me that I have ACUTE dermatitis and he wants to PROVE to me that he can make me better.. So then, he lays it on me.  There is a new pill out that deals specifically with dermatitis on the hands… He said it’s a miracle!  And then he says it’s $1000/month (hopefully my insurance covers this… or else.. no NAM NAM for a long time..LOL).  I asked him if this $1000 included MAJOR weight loss and BOTOX.. he said not so much.  hmph.  I will need this magic pill for 4 months..

Then, to add insult to injury I decided to visit the esthetician so she can sell me some facial care products (which she successfully did thankyouverymuch) and she examined my skin and said that I have busted capillaries and I should really consider laser to remove them for a mere $350/session and I need 6.  I told her I was very close and cuddly with my capillaries, and was not prepared to separate from them… thankyouverymuch  (I like that thankyouverymuch bidniss)…

Anyway.. that’s my NUGGET for today…  so please place orders so I can buy my happy pills?  THANKYOUVERYMUCH.   (just kiddinK)

Mwah to da sistahs who will be VEHERRRY annoyed with my new thankyouverymuches

Em

it’s.. PROJECT LIFE TOOSDAYS

Hiya sistahs!  So did I convince you to start Project Life yet?  I am having a blast with it.. so along with stamping, mixed meda’ing, art journaling and lifebooking.. I have taken on this project.  I am IN LOVE.  I am appreciating every moment and capturing the most inane ones too .LOL.  I am also learning to accept the fact that I look HORRIBLE in the pictures..LOL.. but I am ok with that.  I need to be in this album.  I need to create this memory for my kids and their kids.  I NEED them to see that I was boring at times and fun at other times.. sometimes I may shove in a receipt so that they know where their inheritance went..LOL.  I was SOOOO overwhelmed in the beginning of this project.. just the ideas the what ifs etc.. but once I sat down and was surrounded by pictures and product, I was so happy and everything fell into place.  My book doesn’t need to look like anyone elses.  If I don’t want to embellish, I wont.. the most important thing I need to do is JOURNAL and take some pics.. THAT’s it.  My Iphone 4S is my new best friend (the camera).. some pictures arent PHENOM, but I am ok with that.  The mood is captured.  Sometimes it may even be a BAD mood..LOL. My kids and hubby are also involved in this.. I sometimes hear “shouldn’t you take a picture of that?”, or “how good would that look in PROJECT LIFE?   Denabella and Helenabella were talking about it all year and I must admit I was JEALOUS.  Jealous that they had so much to talk about..but now I can partake in it!  They are teaching me new things every day.. I am learning about a whole new product line.. I am creating FOR this product line.. and I am using what I have in creative ways.  I will teach you how to do that too.  I hope you take this journey with me.. your kids will THANK da bella 🙂 oh and you too!

I would love it if you sent in your layouts to post on Tuesdays…. I look at other people’s layouts and I just get inspired.. you will hear me say.. OOOHHH look what they stamped, stuck, glued, colored,pinned etc.  This will be a great place for that inspiration.  And because I love getting to know people, I would love to see a little piece of you 🙂

If you are ever looking for me on a Sunday afternoon… you can find me at my table, in heaven…

One of my challenges every week is to be able to find a place for my stamps.. they are so much a part of me, that they DESERVE a place in Project Life, no?  It taught me a whole NEW way of looking at stampies.. it’s amazing!  I challenge YOU to use stamps in your layout.. you will see different elements that you have never seen before.. or different uses for them… I PROMISE.

Ok let’s go!

Here is my layout from last week

My first page.. you will see on the top right, I used our stamp JOT IT DOWN memory block and P.S.  my kids ARE goofs..LOL

In this close up, I wanted to fill up some of my card with prettyness so I used my FLUFFY FLOWER HEAD on the right..Love that touch

Here is a small teeny picture of the store in the middle of a class.  I actually punched out the circle (you will see on bottom left picture) and found the negative on my table and used it here..SEE?  you use your scraps!  I then used one of the prompts from our new LIFEBOOK stamp series (that is Angela’s handwriting in a stamp.. )… you will see that in the next month.. these stamps will FORCE you to journal..:)  I also think it is important to use your handwriting in PL.. it is YOUR imprint..  Stay Tooned for our new Lifebook stamps by Angela Urbano and moi…

Here is my SECOND layout (I had 3 for this week).  I used a large shipping tag on the top left.. I also grab a 6*6 paper collection pad and that is what I use for my layouts that week and coordinate 🙂

I stamped COMPLETELY RANDOM journaling block on paper, cut it out and mounted it on a journaling card.. as Jayden would say “easy peasy LEMON SQUEEZY”.. so you can use it partially, or full on :).  Love this stamp

Here is a picture of Tyler on Saturday on his way home from hockey..LOL.  I also used COMPLETELY RANDOM JOURNALING BLOCK  I stamped it on paper and cut out the top to stick it under the picture.  You will see this stamp in another place too… please hold. LOL

Here’s my third layout.. (bored yet?)

Used a new app called INSTABOOTH for photobooth pics.. We had so much fun but looked SOOO bad..LOL

Here is Denabella’s spread

and here is Sheryl’s layout

 

Tell me this isn’t fun..LOL. Ok so don’t tell me unless you do think it’s fun..LOL

Don’t forget placing a comment HERE for your chance at winning $10 in Bella bucks!

 

it’ ART JOURNALING MONDAY.. PROJECT LIFE TOOSDAYS and LAST DAY OF THE FREE SHIPPING!!!

and it’s totally my fault that I didn’t get many entries 🙁  My darling daughter Jayden thought of the BESTEST theme for the week and it remained in my HEAD until Friday when I put it at the end of Bellarific Friday post..LOL

So the theme this week was to draw or write about your dream house..  why would it look the way it looks?  what could you write about it?  Where would it be?

Clearly I am needing some peace and quiet in my dream house 🙂  LOL

I used washi tape, watercolors, script stamp, doodle pen.. and my kitchen sink.  Since yesterday was my day to complete my Project Life entry for last week, I had so many goodies on my desk that I just grabbed and used

Here’s Lori’s page

Corey did last week’s cuz I was slow in announcing the topic..LOL.  I embrace ALL entries, whether it has to do with my prompt or not :).. I just want you all to work in your journals and have fun!

OK NEXT WEEK’S THEME.. Add book text to your page.. whether you put words together from different books to write a message or a quote.. or use book text as a background.. it’s up to you :).. have fun ripping and gluing or cutting and pasting!

Now I think I am going to do PL TUESDAYS… Project Life Tuesdays.. I will post my posts and show you what my everyday life entails..LOL.. BOOOOORINGGGG.. but it is so much fun to put together!  I would love it if you would also like me to post it online to inspire other people.. all you have to do is submit it to me before tuesday and up it will go!   Would love it if you would like to go on that journey with me!

mwah mwah mwah

“I live in a small town in central Illinois with my fabulous husband and four kids. My favorite color is pink and my favorite numbers are five and seven. I love my camera, punctuality, cartoons, chocolate ice cream, riding my bike, and Project Runway. I hate circles, shopping, naps, Danielle Steel novels, cleaning, cooking, coffee, hot weather, waking up early, and the television series House. I also hate office buildings, and cough syrup. Every morning I drink a cup of green tea, I have a hard time falling asleep at night, I could eat spaghetti every day, my favorite movie is Lord of the Rings, I have a dry sense of humor, and I’m afraid of heights. ”

Amariah has been such a pleasure to work with.. we worked so close together on these images and they are near and dear to our hearts.. these characters are wistful.. thoughtful.. they are quiet..LOL.. we needed a little change around here no?
