AnnaBelle Stamps 'Say It With...Thanks'

Hi Guys,

I hope you're all well and had a wonderful week!

Welcome to another fun challenge brought to you by AnnaBelle Stamps Blog and this week you need to 'Say It With...

I'm soooooooooooo happy that I can play along this week, I've been itching to get out all my goodies and start creating again lol!

So here's my card:

Andrea also challenge us to use a Background Stamp so I have used the 'Music Notes' from ABS Backgrounds By Design~6 and heat embossed the image using some ABS Hi-Gloss Embossing Powder onto my Black cardstock! 
I LOVE heat embossing on black, it looks amazing and I used the 'Music Notes' because as it's spring, sweet music is in the air from the birds lol and I embellished my border(I'm so loving ABS NEW Border Die!!!) by hand cutting some flowers from ABS 'Stemmed Flowers' Stamp Set and place some Icicle Sprinkles in the center for a little sparkle!

Supplies Used:
AnnaBelle Stamps:  'Backgrounds By Design~6', 'Stemmed Flowers' and 'Dotted Flowers' Stamp Sets, Icicle Sprinkles, Hi-Gloss Embossing Powder, Cuts By Design~Borders 1

Other:  Black, White and Pink Cardstock, Oval Punches, Black Ink

AnnaBelle Stamps Blog Hop

Hi Guys,

I hope your all well!

Welcome to AnnaBelle Stamps Blog Hop and if you hopped your way here from Sue's amazing blog then your heading in the right direction and weren't Sue's Tags simply AWESOME?

So today's hop is all about tags, Christmas tags!

So here's my tags:

I used my Silhouette to cut out my tags in 6 different shapes and sizes and 3 of each.  I wanted my tags to be simple as I wanted to achieve a 'Simple Distressed' look

My tags fit in my box(which I also cut out using my Silhouette)nicely with some Red and White Twine that I have wrapped around a ribbon storage card!

I have used some distress ink around all my tags and the box in Walnut Stain.

This was a nice size box to hold my tags and twine.

I finished of my box of tags by tying a gorgeous Red satin ribbon around my box!

Supplies Used:
AnnaBelle Stamps:  'Gifted Swirls', 'Christmas Wish' and 'Background By Designs 6' Stamp Sets, Red and White Twine, Red Satin Ribbon, Ribbon Storage Cards

Other:  Real Red, Always Artichoke, Antique Linen and Walnut Stain Inks, Naturals Cardstock, My Minds Eye ~ Lost and Found Christmas DP, Velcro, Silhouette Die Cutter Machine

I would of shown you a pic with a tag tied to a present but I have not started my Christmas shopping as yet, It's a tradition of mine to leave it to the last minute lol!

Just a simple set of tags but I was happy with the end results and the colours look so much better in person and the distressing doesn't show to well in the photo!

So,  now hop on over to Sue K's Awesome blog as Sue has some stunning tags waiting for you!

Don't forget to take part in the AnnaBelle Stamps Blog 'Say It With...' Challenge that is on right now, so show us your Handmade Gifts!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I'll see you on Friday for another Awesome AnnaBelle Stamps Theme Challenge, you will love it!

Till then,
