If you just came from Sparkle Creation can you say WoW!!! Its a hard act to follow but the show must go on! I am giving you three cards today!







I guess you could say I left cute at the door and drug in some grunge! I did some experimentation with trying to get Calliope Ketto to look like she was actually flitting around. I hope you like them or can at least appreciate a different grasp of reality! The 2 AM card making realty! LOL!

Remember,three gift certificates for $100 in Bella Bucks will be hidden along the hop, but we’re not telling you where so be sure to leave some love as you hop!!! Make sure you leave comments on every post so you have a chance to win!! The winners will be announced on Monday, December 7 at the Stamping Bella Blog. MWAH!
