BLOG HOP & BELLI CHALLENGE #61 & COPIC COLOUR CHALLENGE

This post is going to be a TRIPLE DECKER with TWO sneak peaks for you in the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog Hop! If you have come here first - when you are done looking, you will want to HOP on over to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Blog.

I had recieved a card a few weeks ago from a friend and that served as my inspiration for this card. I will share it next week! :)

This Blog Hop Sweet 'n Sassy is doing things a bit differently for this release. To celebrate the release of four new stamp sets, Sweet 'n Sassy will be having four challenges, each with a prize of the new set being featured. You will see each of the four challenges posted on DT member blogs during your blog hop from April 1-3. I am hosting the sketch challenge, and you guessed it, the winner will receive this super sweet Be Blessed set used to make today's card. This is a stamp set with a cause - more on that below.

Be sure to HOP to all of the Blogs to see the challenges - These are VERY easy to do!

I am hosting a challenge with the theme of BIRDS. To enter just make a card using BIRDS on your card, and upload it to the Sweet n' Sassy Gallery. There is no need for a keyword.

Here are the details of my project...

Stamp Sets: Dream Silouettes

Cardstock: Garden Green, Certainly Celery, Whisper White

Accessories: Dew Drops, Mini Glue Dots, Celery Grosgrain

It is good to be home and NOT busy. I am having a GREAT week. I have had lots of time to work on my blog and spend extra time snuggling and reading to my gremlins. To actually live here, I could complain, but I know that it would not change my circumstances.

I can always tell when Tax Time is here in my home because that seems to be when things fall apart. While I was away from home this weekend, we had a snow storm and our power went out several times. This brought on power surges - which blew out several of our small appliance things - The things I came home too being broken...

1. 2 Dvd Players (this is bad because we do Video School for the kids with Bob Jones Univ.)

2. One of our Computers

3. Wireless Internet Router

4. Nintendo Wii Player (sad!)

5. one of Television - the one Grace does her school on

Now, as I look at that list - I think WOW those are expensive items to have to replace, but I have to say on the other hand, we are blessed to even have those items. Ultimately they do not belong to us anyways, as all of our possessions were gifts from God. I am not going to stress about all of these things, I am going to trust God that He will provide for us when He deems it time. My flesh wants to run out and go shopping though! LOL

I combined this week's Challenges for the Belli Challenge AND the Copic Colour Challenge

I will start out with the Belli Challenge! In combination of these challenges, I am showcasing a NEW SWEET 'n SASSY STAMPS - BIRTHDAY GREETINGS.

The Belli Challenge for this week is to make an APRIL FOOL'S DAY card. I have to say I absolutely LOVE this card and the way it turned out. It makes me SMILE! Be sure to check out the Belli Design Team's FABULOUSLY FUN projects.
