HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY! BELLI #61


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! 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 with the THEME of APRIL'S FOOL DAY.


Here is what you need to do...



1. Anyone Can Play! Spread the Word! :)
2. Make a completed project with an APRIL"S FOOL DAY THEME. Share the link here in the comments linking to Mr. Linky - CBC61. When you post to Splitcoaststampers or to your Blog, be sure and put CBC61 as the KEYWORD and mention of the challenge - with a link!



3. We will do a drawing and the winner will be a Guest Designer April 8.



This week's winner is Maria Matter - you really need to check out her Fairy beautiful bookmark!!!



Let me take a moment to introduce you to our Guest Designer -


Suzanne Brown
Hi, my name is Suzanne and I’m thrilled to be this week’s guest designer for the Belli Challenge. I am a mom of three grown children: All adults and off living on their own in various areas of the country. I have been involved in one craft or another for well over 50 years…..YIKES! My passion for paper crafts began about 10 years ago when I was introduced to scrapbooking. I fell in love. During those scrapbooking years I turned down many invitations to attend stamping parties…..I just didn’t see the need for another hobby and couldn’t figure out why on earth I would want to make my own cards. For my scrapbooking, I thought stickers were so much nicer. Finally, I gave in to the pleas of a close friend who was having a hard time getting people to commit to attending her stamping party….she assured me she did not expect me to purchase anything, she just wanted to have some fun stamping with some friends. Needless to say I fell in love immediately!!!!!! I can’t say I purchased anything that help her with her party sales, but I did purchase a starter kit and walked away a new Stampin’ Up demonstrator.


That was four years ago. I love to share what I do. Over the past four years I have learned much from visiting the BLOGs of other stampers and recently by taking part in challenges such as this Belli Challenge.


I look forward to many more Belli Challenges in the coming weeks and hope to share my creations with you all on my BLOG Stampin & Kwiltin’ at http://stampin--kwiltin.blogspot.com/ as well as visiting each of your BLOGs to see your creations.
