Hiya sistahs!  Hope you are having a PHENOMALISH friday!   I have been very busy preparing for our birthday bash.. we have some stuff coming for the men in our lives, we have a new ketto launch and new scrappy stamps for the birth of scrapping bella!! I have also been taking some online classes on how to make an art journal.  I have to tell you that it is THE MOST LIBERATING thing I have done in a long time.. scribbling, gessoing, painting, sanding, sticking, gluing, and WRITING!  I am learning how to journal and reading some very interesting books.  So really? I have been a VE-HERRY busy bella.  I will talk more about art journaling throughout the upcoming weeks but if you want to have a peek at my art journaling IDOL – Dina Wakley (who will be a guest designer for scrapping bella RIGHT DINA? LOL).. Love her and am taking her course.  If you are interested in something like this, please sign up for the class it is really amazing.  We, as women hardly have any time to express ourselves,artistically and verbally and I think this is the best mix of both!  Do any sistahs out there do that now? If so, do you enjoy it? One of our “localish” sistahs ANNA , introduced us to it!  THANK YOU ANNA!

Ok, now back to bidniss.. we are wishing Stamping Bella a very happy 3d year birthday.. doesn’t she look amazing for “3”? LOL. What made us all meet? Who brought us all together?  Who helped us enjoy relationships and special friendships that we never would have had otherwise?  Why, BELLA, of course!  I made these 2 cards to celebrate bella.. very simple.. one is inspired by my new artsy journal where I just felt good MAKING it..if that makes any sense?

OK, let’s boogie with our BABEROONI’S  Cards for this week’s challenge!

DANABELLA used DAISYBELLA (does that RHYME?)

Jeaniebella used BALLOONABELLA

Joannabella used SUPERBELLA
