Hello Bloggers,
The first of our AnnaBelle Stamps themed challenges for March is to 'Say It With Love', hope you're planning on joining us. I have a couple of little projects to share with you this week.
When I was thinking about this weeks theme I started thinking about SENTIMENTS. I always jot down great sentiments or verses when I see them. I'm a great one for Notebooks (incase you didn't know this!) I have lots for all kinds of things, recipes, colour schemes, household measurements, you name it. Trouble is when I find a sentiment I jot it down in the nearest notebook or on a slip of paper. You know what's coming, right? I decided I needed a small notebook that can sit on my desk so all those sentiments can be in one place.............and here it is.
This is a little hard cover 3.25 inch square notebook.....so sweet and just right for a sentiment a page!
My DT friend Sue K posted a beautiful card for our Say It In Yellow challenge where she stamped this Background By Design #3 border with mitred corners, I thought it looked great so did the same for the cover here ** Hope you don't mind Sue**.
The centre circle is from the popular Sentimental Bluebells set and I added a few appropriate AnnaBelle sentiments within the circle. For some added bling I used Sprinkles from the mixed Gypsy set.
So that was one take on Say It With Love..........here's a little 4 x 4 inch card:
The dp is from Basic Grey Lemonade and it sits over some bright yellow American Craft card.
AnnaBelle's Red Heart Sprinkles added to the top right corner and across the bottom I've added some flowered ribbon in orange and red.
