This week’s Stamp It Saturday post is a bit of a hodge-podge! Hopefully you will find something useful in it, though. Please bear with me – I am in the middle of preparing for a big house move, and my mojo seems to have gone on strike until it gets a shiny new craft-room to play in. What a brat!
Firstly, I thought I would share my latest colouring video uploads for the recent release with you.
Watch me colour Polar Bear & Mousie Stuffies in the video below or in HD over on YouTube.
I have left this one close to “real time”, so you can get a really good look at the colouring.
Watch me colour The Walrus, the Polar Bear and the Penguin Stuffies in the video below or in HD over on YouTube.
I hope you enjoy checking out the colouring videos!
I’d like to remind you about some older posts that you may find useful for the new releases too!
Ideas for Using Accessory Stamps – this post created using some of the Fall 2017 stamp sets is also relevant for the Winter 2017 releases! Lots of accessory stamps in the new Little Bits stamp sets would be perfect for creating fun backgrounds.

Hiya sistahs!
Hope you had a great week.. so much going on around here.. I am actually working on a little release for before the holidays.. I know I know.. but I just can’t hold these images in any longer.. I feel like I’m gonna BUST.! Just pure yumminess.. will leave it at that.
On another note, I wanted to announce that Danabella and Lesliebella are no longer on the baberooni team. I know these 2 ladies personally and am proud to call them my friends. I wanted to thank both of them from the bottom of my heart for all they have done for me.. for their loyalty, exuberance, and hard work. I wish them only good things and will miss both of them so much. Love you Dana and Leslie!
For this week’s Bellarific Friday, our theme was to use circles on your card.
Let’s see what our baberoonis came up with shall we?
Sandiebella used our ANGEL SQUIDGY ORNAMENT from our ANGEL SQUIDGIES ORNAMENT and BELL set
You can find the corresponding “CUT IT OUT” DIE and BUNDLE HERE (save 15% when purchased as a bundle!)
