It is so chilly tonight .. well ... chilly for here. I know some of my friends who have already seen snow this season! I still may not have to turn on the heat, but I did have to close windows. I like cool weather though. I enjoy sitting on the deck with the kids, drinking coffee and watching them play. I have had a few comments about me and my coffee obsession. Coffee does not effect me in any way other than make me happy:) lol. I love the smell, I love everything about it. It wakes me in the morning, I have a coffee break around 3pm every day ((maybe get to make a card or just chill before having to start dinner and such)), and a cup or two at night. For instance it is 10:35 and I just brewed a pot. It calms me at night and I often fall asleep on the couch mid cup. Ask my hubby:). Poor guy :). Honestly, I could live off of coffee and chocolate! OK, back to the reason I am here... Snowbunnybella:). Isnt she just too cute?!? I was raked a few images and just love her! I will get this one by next years holiday season. I fought with myself whether to order her or not. I did get the new Tistheseason...???bella. I cant wait to play with her. OK, yes Adela I am apparently sleep typing.. but I do not have the want to save this and fix it in the am:). I am going to stop rambling immediately!
I made this card for 2 Monday challenges. Mojo Monday and The Cupcake Craft Challenge. The sketch for the mojo challenge fit with the cupcake challenge so well. You had to use a 'hole' in your card so I put it where the circle in the sketch was and voila! there you have it:). It was a bit tricky for me to layer, but I got it:)! I did mess up and had to cover a mistake. I accidentally made a black mark on the red paper, so I traced all the vines. I thought it looked better after I was finished than it did before I drew them. I used my bic markers, stickles, iridescent paint, and the Martha Stewart classic woodland paper pad. The sent is from my SU set called thanks snow much. Hope you like my card and thanks for putting up with my crazy posts. I love you gals!!!:)
What a STUNNER!!! I l-o-v-e all the gorgeous red, and you colored her to the T. Total radiant red precision!!! Gorgeous creation, Heather!!!! I LOVE IT:O)

I LOVE that Bella card!! You did a wonderful job on it :) And I'm thinking we are sisters at heart...I at this very moment am drinking a cup a joe!! It's the second pot I've made today. I didn't drink 2 pots myself...I had help :) But I drink it all day long. Hot days...cold days...any days! It doesn't keep me awake just the same a you. I sometimes fall asleep with 1/2 a cup on my bedside table LOL!!
