Yes, I know it is actually Tuesday and in fact August, not July!  This post should have gone up on Saturday, but someone forgot to schedule it before going away for the weekend…and yesterday was not a productive day as I was utterly exhausted!  We always have a great time when we visit family, but it totally throws me!

So, here it is, a few days late and in the wrong month to boot!  Brilliant!

The theme for last week was Christmas in July.  I recently bought this adorable POLAR BEAR CIRCLE stamp (when you visit Stamping Bella, make sure you hunt around, there are some hidden treasures in there!) so just had to get it inked up for the challenge.

Stamping Bella - Polar Bear Circle

Totally cute, no?  Love how sweet and simple to colour up the circle images are (I previously used PREGGO CIRCLE). 

Copic Markers to colour, unsurprisingly.  My Mind’s Eye “Merry Days of Christmas” papers (My Mind’s Eye papers are available in the UK at Quixotic Paperie).  Bow-Easy.  Viva Decor Pearl Pen and Glitter Liner (Viva Decor Pearl Pens and Glitter Liners are available in the UK at Quixotic Paperie).

THIS WEEK’S BELLARIFFIC FRIDAY THEME: PAPER PIECING!  And don’t forget, there is an open DT call for a new Bella Babe.  All you have to do to be considered is enter all the Bellariffic Friday challenges in August!  Get your card for this week over to DA BELLA by Thursday evening.

And since it is now TOOSDAY, I can remind you that there will be a new set of TANTALISING TOOSDAY offers available at Stamping Bella today.  Drop by BLOGGABELLA later on to see what DA BELLA has for you!

As I’m playing catch-up, I will no doubt be back later with another Stamping Bella make to show you!  Lots of things on the desk, none of them finished…yet!
