MIXING BELLI'S WITH THE MOJO - BELLI CHALLENGE 47

Since many of you are celebrating Christmas, we decided to keep this simple and
call this week's Belli Challenge - BELLI'S OF THE PAST!
What is the Belli Challenge you ask?

Each week, I try to give us a challenge that will use things we have lying around our stamp rooms or homes! With a constant flow of new things coming out, I tend to forget about the other things I have and they quickly become clutter!

This weeks, Belli Challenge is to make a project using YOUR CHOICE of any of the Past BELLI CHALLENGES!

Here is a list of BELLI'S OF THE PAST
1 BEADS 2 RUB ONS 3 BUTTONS 4 WHEEL 5 CHIPBOARD 6 – SKIPPED THIS NUMBER

You can make ANYTHING you wish AND use WHATEVER BELLI you wish, even combine challenges with another!
Here is what you need to do...
1. Anyone Can Play! Spread the Word! :)
2. Make a completed project with ANY of the Bellis of the past. Share the link here in the comments linking to my Blog and CBC47. When you post to Splitcoaststampers or Paper Craft Planet or to your Blog, be sure and put CBC47 as the KEYWORD and mention of the challenge - with a link!
3. I will do a drawing and the person whose name I draw will get an assortment of Designer Papers!
Last week's winner was Kristin- check her beautiful project out HERE.

For this challenge, I used the Mojo Monday Sketch #66 as my inspiration. You can find more information about it here.

There is also no stamping on this card! I used the FOLLOWING BELLI'S of the PAST -
#2 Rub Ons, #7 Hardware, #17 Die Cuts and #31 Baubles and Bling

I have fallen in love with the new Co'ordinations Cardstock that Korin carries at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps! It is called the Black Magic by Co'ordinations and it is a textured cardstock that is BLACK and has a colored CORE. On this card, I crumpled the black cardstock, then unfolded it and sanded only the wrinkled portions, giving it a marblized look. I also spritzed some Glimmer Mists on to give it the shimmer. If you buy this cardstock, it will not have the shimmer! You can find it HERE for a very reasonable price.



Here is a few more details for this project:
Stamp Set: NONE!
Ink: Ballet Blue for some sponging
Cardstock: Co'ordinations Black Magic Hocus Pocus, Whisper White, Ballet Blue
Accessories: Snowflakes nestibilities,Nestibilities Labels, Ice Brads, Mini Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Glitter Pen

Be sure to check out the FABULOUS Belli Challenge Design Team's creations!!! Leave them a comment! We all LOVE to know what you are thinking about what we create. I know it makes me SMILE when you leave me a comment.

I will not be posting the prizes on the group at this time. Any participants you want to be included in the prizes will need to come here to post their links!

Have a very Merry Christmas!
God Bless You!
