My Crazy Stamp Obsession!

Ketto Blog Hop!

Good Morning Everyone!  Hope you have a wonderful weekend!  First I would like to thank Shannan Teubner for putting together this blog hop.  Girl, you ROCK!!!

Welcome to the first Ketto Blog Hop sponsored by Stamping Bella! If you've just happened upon my blog, you can CLICK HERE to start from the beginning at Bloggabella.

One of my favorite Kettos is Kenya.  I used SU's tempting turquoise & apricot appeal paper, Basic Grey's Marrakech DP, and colored Kenya with pencils and gamsol.  Of course I had to use some bling...added stickles to her headband and wand.  The sentiment is from Verve. Enjoy the blog hop!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Now it's time to hop on over to the lovely and talented Jamie!. Have a great day!

How about a prize? In addition to the fabulous eye candy, we have decided to hide a prize somewhere along the hop! One pre-selected blogger will draw a random winner from the comments on her post, and the winner will receive a $40 Gift Voucher to Stamping Bella!!! The fun part is...we're not telling you who it is! So as you hop, make sure you leave comments on every post so you have a chance to win!! We will announce the winner on Monday. MWAH!

Bella's Favorite Stamper for May!

I know, I haven't posted in forever!! My dad was here for a visit and time just ran away from me.  I will have some photos to share of our visit.  He hasn't been to Texas since Dustin graduated in '05 so the visit was long overdue!

Now on to stamping stuff.  Congratulations to Christy S. for being the Bella's Favorite Stamper for May!

To find more details on the challenge, click ((here)) to visit the challenge thread on SCS.

I was inspired by this card in Christy's gallery.  I changed the followng: the colors, the Bella stamp, added ribbon and a bella donut, omitted the saying at the top and the flower embellishment.
