time flies when you're colorin'...

...where has this week gone? I have been busy here at coloring central. Emily was wondering where my color lists where at, for class at the end of the month. Man...did I not finish all that business and send them off to her? LOL Well, non to fear for all the chica's coming to class... the lists is now in Emily's hands and I have it as well. Give us a holler {email might be best}and get ready to sharpen some lead...vrooom, vrooom!

In other worldly stamping news, today is BellaRIFFIC friday and have I got a card to show you. It's full of love and kisses and so "tweet"...{get it?} Here is another Green Bean Baby Valentine/Love/Anniversary image for that someone special in your life, ROMANTIC cage. I will never forget coloring this because I was sitting in our room in the Waldorf=Astoria, Mary was passed out in her bed and I was listening to 'The Office' on tv and the sounds of the city below. Come to think of it, it really wasn't that noisy outside...and I was so hyped from being in NYC I couldn't sleep yet. So, I colored! 

I had this Bo-Bunny paper in mind for this image and I went back and forth trying other patterns, because I didn't want to lose my image in a too bold of a print. I kept coming back to this paper though and just used it. I know that even though I beat myself up over it {mentally}, someone else will appreciate it and not even realize how I struggled.  LOL it may sound silly, but that is how I roll! I went with the soft cream of Bella's bestest paper, my prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I added some glitter all around the birds...they are in love ya know and that's how I thought they would feel, all glittery and tingly. I used my nesties and some perfectly matching ribbon...now I am tingly inside! The sentiment comes in one piece and I cut it into two. What do ya think? I think I should mail out a few of these Valentines and not be such a hoarder.

Check out the Bella's blog and see what other fab-U-luss ideas are waiting us, and how others created a card using Shannanbella's sketch. I finally hooked up with Emily on Skype last night and we kept it pretty short so that she could get the BellaRIFFIC gallery loaded. 

Now, our BellaRIFIC Challenge for next week is Valentine's! Get a card made and buy your honey something special...or just give them a handmade card? {Wow, that would surprise Jim!!} Show us what new Bella images you snagged in the last release, maybe some Bella Bucks could be in your future...

How about a few pics of our room at the Waldorf=Astoria. {Jordan is the one who is always snapping pictures of our room, but she wasn't here on this trip...}

A room fit for a King!


Robes we never wore...would we have gotten charged?
A room with a view...overlooking the "W" Hotel. I so wanna be there right this minute...
