Well it’s getting to feel like winter! The chill is in the air.
I love snow-but only if I am staying warm and cozy AT HOME! I hate driving or traveleing in it-unless its Christmas Eve or Christmas day! That makes it all the more MERRY!
When I saw Snowbunny Bella, I HAD to have her!!! She is the most adorable thing.
I am unfortunately addicted to them. I had NO IDEA I had well over 30, until I put them all together into a large Prima Flower tin I had collecting dust. Some have never seen ink. They will soon though-I swear!
THANK GOD my local stamp store now carries them!! They get in the newest ones ALL the time! I just call ahead to check and to see if what I want is in. I am a happy girl! I hate waiting to get a shipment in the mail. Patience is NOT one of my virtue’s. AND it’s pretty nice to NOT have to pay for shipping.
So here is my FIRST time using her
ย Sketch ย Click for larger view
I thought she was the PURTY-ist (yes that is a word-my word LOL!) sketch. Great for those taller images, that you may get challenged with using ๐
I also used a CUTE set by The Cat’s Pajama’s for the sign, and sentiment called-Polar Holiday, and Poochie Christmas. You really do NEED all 3! LOL!
My snowflakes are table confetti. I am addicted to them.
Color Spritzer and glue pen (with glitter)ย make snowflakes of a different kind. You know she is a Copic colored girl!
So I hope you get to try the sketch! If you do send me a link so we can ALL check it out!
Till tomorrow-I’ll have MORE gift ideas, using myACWP sets! AND some Lizzie Anne!
PLEASE PRAY that my Papertrey Ink stuff comes ๐ I’m going INSANE!!!!
I also HOPE to get the newest C.C. Designs sets! If you liked Lucky and LuLu you are going to go nuts for the next release! Ill give you a hint……….ONE of the sets is “my butterflies of winter”. So you know I’m DYING to get them.
Stumped? Too bad! LOL!
AND……………..MFT has some AMAZING new sets also being released on the 4th? I think! I dont know it keeps changing. I’ll keep you posted on that one ๐
When you see Lizzie Anne’s new releases in January you are also going to go for B-R-O-K-E!!! TRUST ME!
OK enough teasing-get to stamping my sketch would ya.

this snowbunny card is SOOOOO adorable! love all the tinsel colored snowflakes! I just got a bunch of I-RAK images of this bella – now I need to get to working on a card using her too!
I love your Bella card!! All the sparkle, and snowflakes look soooo pretty, and I love the colors!
Tooooooo cute!
She looks FABULOUS! Love all that sparkle!
OMG GF, you are killing me with these stamps…she is so cool and you did so good!
Love the snow and the perfect glittery fur!… ๐
I have to admit though, I am one of the rare stampers, apparently, who doesn’t like Bellas!! (And it’s all the better for my wallet! LOL)
Call me crazy but I find it really disturbing that they have “fleshy” legs but only stick arms!! And I think they should wear a bra cause they have sagging breast also!….;-)
Love her! I just ordered snowbunnybella along with a few others yesterday. I know what your butterflies of winter are and I’m excited to see the new set. I always enjoy your blog. Thanks
Oh don’t you love her! I said that she was so me and I had to have her too! Since we have winter from about November til March I am going to use her TONS this season….just for Hi, Thinking of You, Miss you…all sorts of cards!
Can’t wait to try your sketch this afternoon! Looking forward to all the new releases too but will probably wait til January to buy anymore online. Most likely wouldn’t arrive her until after Xmas….darn border!
Have a fab day girl!
You did a beautiful job coloring! It makes me cold looking at it! LOL Great sketch for those tall images.
She is so cute and I love your card!
she’s awesome & so are you! Thanks for all the great creations you share with us!
LOVE this, Lauren! LOVE that sparkly fur!
The snowbunny is soooo chilly looking! I love it!
And I havent gotten my Papertrey either! SO SAD!!!!! Because I ordered several cigar boxes, it’s being sent UPS so it’s super slooooow! It’s supposed to be here on Monday, so I totally feel you! I want my sprial bouquet!!!!
I just may try your sketch this weekend, Im busting out my Christmas cards and this looks like a great sketch for that!

Oh baby it’s an awesome card! I just love her! Thanks for taodays inspiration!
“Butterflies of winter”….hmmm maybe Penguins?? Snowbunny is adorable. And this is a great sketch (as always). Can’t wait to see the new stuff!
She is just too cute Lauren! I love the colors!! Oh – and thanks for the forewarning on all of the new stuff coming out…I already know I’m in trouble!
Look how gorgeous she is!!! Love how you colored her! Great idea adding the sign next to her too! I love seeing different companies’ stamps being used together.
Too cute. Love all of the sparkle. I hate waiting for shipments too. It’s just torture!
I can see why she is your favorite…but this card and design is what makes her PURTY-ist ๐
Oh my gosh! Tooooo cute! I just love your work so much!
Great card and great sketch! Haven’t delved into Bellas yet but it is getting harder and harder to resist them.
She is my fave Bella to date! And LOOK at her shimmery fur hood. Great colors too.
Yah! I got it done the SAME day! You know what that means? I get to do another tomorrow! LOL! I want to try one without the DP on mine….thanks for looking!

Love this Bella – Great card. I will hopefully have some time this week to work on this challenge. I have been behind lately.
OH, Lauren! Is this ever darling! I see another Bella in my future–thanks alot. . . ๐
Here’s my take on the sketch-challenge :-P…. : http://dare2beecreative.blogspot.com/2007/11/flip-flops-greetings.html
She is A*D*O*R* -A- *B*E*L*L*A* Lauren {smile}. How did you do her fluffy hood, with just loads of glitter or did you add in some of that three-dimensional puffy glue? It looks in the photo almost like a fine hair or fur.
Ohhh and you think you are addicted to Bellas ! Haaaa! I have almost 50 of them, and they are all perfectly organized in their pretty Bella Binder. I know, I’m nuts, but I can’t get enuf of them …. ohhh ya, but you know how that feels don’t you. MWAHHHH
Great sketch & great card Lauren! This bella didn’t catch my eye before, but you really made her beautiful! I love all the sparkles you added!
Beautiful bella!!!! She’s one of the most gorgeous one i’ve seen yet!!!
Love all the sparkles!!!!
