AnnaBelle Stamps Sketch Challenge 036

Last Friday of the month means it's time for AnnaBelle Stamps Sketch Challenge, hope you'll play along with us again for your chance to win a shopping trip at the AnnaBelle Stamps On-line store. You have  until the last Friday in April to submit your card using this sketch or you might like to join in with any of April's challenges to increase your chances to win.  

If you use your AnnaBelle Stamps images and upload your card to the Gallery you could be joining us as a guest designer.  We enjoyed seeing all the wonderful projects from our March guest designer Lyn and hope you popped along to her blog to leave her some cyber hugs.

This month we have Nicole joining us please pop over to her blog to say hello.

OK my card uses two sets, one that I've not used until now and it's such a fabulous little set.  Beaded flourishes are so popular at the moment, how good would it be to be able to stamp and bead your own.....you can if you have this set  'Flourishes'  

My second set is the very popular Ballerina Rose........I used one of the sentiments in the top square.

Both these sets are part of the March Madness Sale but it's coming to an end so be quick!!!

My card base is a caramel ribbed card and I've used both sides of the DP which is Basic Grey nook and pantry. Some machine stitching to add a little dimension. 

Once the swirl was stamped I added 3mm toffee sprinkles.   Rangers tea dye distress ink was used for the stamping and sponging on my card. 

I've  embossed the middle square using a Swiss dots embossing folder and popped this square up on fine foam tabs. A thicker foam was used to attach the top sentiment square. To complete my card I added the required bling, three more toffee sprinkles.

There have been a few changes to the Belle's here at AnnaBelle Stamps.  We said goodbye to Rene' and Ida, who both helped Andrea get her stamp range off to a good start. We'll miss their cards every week but wish them well, knowing we'll see their lovely work around the blogs.  We have two new Belle's joining us this week, so please go say hello to Patti (the other Patti Sue) and Stephanie. We're really looking forward to seeing all their inspiring projects during the next few months. They both have amazing blogs, you'll find the links in the right hand side bar.
