A Consuming Passion...: AnnaBelle Stamps - August Previews

Hello all,

It was good to read such great comments on the first of the AnnaBelle Stamp sets being previewed for August. Thoughtful Stems looks like being a favourite with you too. Were you the lucky person to win a copy??? Andrea is giving one copy of each set we preview this month read on for the details.

Today the design team have the second on the Party Animals sets to play with 'Party Animals 2'. I had lots of fun with the first set, stamping onto fabric and making gift boxes. For this second set I've carried on with the Birthday theme making an easel card for little girl and decorating a jar filled with chocolate smarties.

I really enjoy making these mini easels and making for a little girl pearlized pink with lemon makes a good colour scheme. I've stamped the image and coloured with a mixture of Copic markers and Prisma's, adding a little sparkle with a gel pen. Spellbinder dies were used to cut the circles with the balloons and party whistle extending outside the circle. Annabelle metallic sprinkles have been added around the card and beneath the birthday sentiment with some double faced ribbon in a matching soft pink tied in a bow to hold the card open. Purrfect!!!

The little glass jar is from a set of four from Ikea! Very inexpensive and just the right size to fill with smarties. When they've disappeared what a great little storage jar for all those precious girlie 'bits and bobs'! Copic markers were used to colour this cheeky mouse! AnnaBelle gems from the pink petals kit along with the dotty ribbon used to embellish.

If you have littlies in your life both the Party Animals sets would be such a great addition to your stamp stash........ Cute images and great sentiments, you'd have the class Birthdays organised no worries!!!!
