Belli Challenge #68 - Patriotic Theme

This week's Belli Challenge is to create a card, scrapbook page, or project with a patriotic theme. You could use the colors red, white, and blue, or incorporate other symbols of patriotism, such as stars, firecrackers, flags, military symbols, etc... We'd love to see what ideas you come up with.


We are in awe of all the fantastic cards that were submitted for our last Belli Challenge. What wonderful ideas for Father's Day cards! You have inspired some of our own Design Team members to case some of your cards! :-) As for the winner of the challenge, we randomly picked:

#6 - Vickilyn!!!!!!!

Congratulations, Vickilyn!!! Please email Chrissy at chrissyd723@gmail.com for details on how to get your FREE digi image. Whoo hoo! We can't wait to see which digi image you pick and what you create with it.

This week, we are showcasing one of our newest Design Team members: Anne Harada. To see more of her wonderful artwork, check out her blog, Everlasting Ink.




I live in Ft. Worth Texas with my best friend and husband of 20 years. We have a grown daughter living nearby in Grapevine Texas. I work fulltime as an Office Manager for a Software Engineering company. My passion for stamping and paper crafting is only surpassed by my love for God, my husband, and my daughter. I have been incredibly blessed in my life and I am grateful that I can share my enthusiasm for this craft whenever I get the opportunity.

About 7 years ago, I went to a SU workshop and instantly became obsessed with the art. For the next couple of years I scoured the Internet to learn tips and techniques and went to every stamp store, convention and stamping show that I could find. I eventually found myself signing up to be a Stampin Up! Demonstrator to get involved in the craft even more. Currently I hold workshops and sell my cards and paper craft gifts in an independently owned boutique shop. I’ve recently been invited to be a guest designer for Innovative Stamp Creations, and on some Saturdays, you’ll find me substitute hosting for the Inspiration Challenge on SCS.

I am totally enjoying my time as part of the talented Creative Belli team!! It is a pleasure to get to know all the girls and make new friends that share the passion!
