AnnaBelle Stamps New Release Blog Hop ~ Day 1

Hi Guys,

Welcome to day 1 of AnnaBelle Stamps New Release for December and if you 'hopped' from Andrea's wonderful blog then your 'hopping' in the right direction lol!

So let me introduce you to 'Stemmed Flowers'



Isn't this such a gorgeous set?

I do have to say that I LOVE this set and how you can match the flower heads with the stems to make lots of different combinations!

I have done something a little different this time around, instead of using all the images I have concentrated on just the one image and made different variations using that image and I made three cards, if time was on my side I think I could of ended up with a few more cards lol, so I took the large 'four stems' image and this is what I came up with:

Card 1:



For this card I stamped my 'stems' in some Kiwi Kiss ink onto my White panel and adhered it to my Pink panel and then adhered it onto my Kiwi Kiss card base using some 3D foam tape.

I used some buttons from my stash to make the flowers and on the top of my card I used some lovely Hot Pink Swiss Dots Ribbon from AnnaBelle Stamps and tied a little dragonfly charm using some Silver thread to finish off my card.

Card 2:



For this card I used one of my favourite colour combos, Brown and Pink lol! I stamped the four stems image onto my White panel using some Old Olive Ink, adhered it onto my pink panel then onto my Brown card base.

This time I used the Pink and Browns Petals Kits from AnnaBelle Stamps, choose the flowers I wanted and placed some of the gems that come in the kit in the flowers centers.

To finish off my card I paper pierced two of my corners for a little decoration.

Card 3:



For this card I used some Real Red and White card stock and once again stamped my stems in some Old Olive Ink.

For my flower heads I used some gorgeous AnnaBelle Stamps Heart Sprinkles in Chilli and I also used some White Satin Ribbon also from AnnaBelle Stamps and I made a bow(by cheating lol)using my ever trustful Bow Easy and I placed a ribbon in the center of my bow to finish off my card!

If time was still on my side I was going to make a card using the same 'four stem' image and making some of those gorgeous rolled roses for my flower heads, maybe next time lol!

Don't forget that you have a chance at winning this gorgeous stamp set by continuing on with the blog hop and leaving your comments along the way!

Till then, Take Care and Keep Smiling,

Say It With...CAKE

Hi Guys,

It's an AnneBelle Stamps post today and it's not a sketch challenge as AnnaBelle Stamps Bling Sketch Challenges are now fortnightly and there is a stamp set to be won each fortnight check out my post HERE about the Challenge and there's still time to enter and all the details can be found HERE at AnnaBelle Stamps Blog!

So the week where there is no sketch challenge, we have a new and exciting themes so this weeks theme is...
'Say It With'...CAKE, Yummy lol!

So here's my card



This weeks AnnaBelle Stamp Set of choice is 'Jasmine's Cupcake', a super cute set and I used a single cupcake image, stamped it 6 times and coloured my cupcakes with my markers and hand cut them and place my yummy cupcakes on to my White circle layer then onto my Red scallop circle.
I used some super cute and yummy, yummy, Sprinkles in Cherry on top of my cupcakes. I then used some Crystal Effects on the icing and it's so glossy. I didn't know what to do for my icing it was a toss up between leaving it plain, using glitter, using some White Puff paint or the Crystal Effects so the Crystal Effects won lol!
I then place my layered scallop circles onto some pattern paper, layered this onto Chocolate Chip card stock then layered all of this onto my Real Red card stock card base.
I used some Chocolate Chip Grosgrain ribbon and Pretty In Pink taffeta ribbon with a White button and some linen thread that I have tied into a bow for my embellishments.
To finish off my card I used some Blossom and Cherry Sprinkles in the four corners of my card!
I think it turned out pretty yummy lol!

Just Add Ink Challenge # 3~Sketch

Hi Guys,
Hope your all having a wonderful week!

Just a quick post to share with you my card for Just Add Ink challenge and this week it's a sketch challenge and what an awesome sketch to work with!

So here's my card



I used Real Red for my card base by Stampin' Up!, the pattern paper is by Bo Bunny from their Love Bandit range which is so super cute lol!
I cut out my circles out of the pattern paper and Whisper White card stock also by Stampin' Up! using my circle nesties dies.
I wanted to make love heart flowers, so I used AnnaBelle Stamps 10mm heart sprinkles in chilli to represent my flowers heads and did some paper piercing to make my flower stems and punched out some tiny hearts in the same pattern paper by Bo Bunny for the flower leaves.
I used some Red satin and White satin trim organza ribbons around my card and tied them into a knot.
My sentiment is from Stampin' Up!'s Short and Sweet Stamp Set and has been stamped in Real Red ink onto Whisper White card stock and punch out using a Oval punch and layered onto a Real Red Scallop Oval that I also punch out using a Scallop Oval punch and popped up my layered oval sentiment using 3D foam.
To finish off my card I did a little more paper piercing on the top right and left hand corners!

Well that was a mouth full roflol!

A quick and simple card and I was so happy with how it turned out!
