blog_hop_again



Hello Blogger's,


AnnaBelle Stamps Blog Hop
Come and join us the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month as we have fun sharing a new set with you!  
Play along with us for your chance to win the Blog Hop set!

Hope you're wearing your comfy shoes ready to Hop along with AnnaBelle Stamps.  Our Hop starts and ends at the AnnaBelle Stamps Blog. If you came here from Andrea's blog you're on the right track.  As always Andrea has a prize for one lucky person so here are the details if you want to play along:


How to Play :
Playing along is now even easier!  You can leave a comment on one or all of the DT blogs and add your name using the Inlinkz tool which can be found on any of the DT blogs.
Each Hop a random winner will be drawn and if you've commented on the mystery DT blog then you will be the winner of the Blog Hop set!   The hop will run for 1 week and the winner will be announced the following Tuesday!


We're featuring another of the recent sets called Acacia today.


For my  card  I used 2 AnnaBelle sets. To the lighter green layer I  stamped  BBD 5 in SU so saffron. I stamped the main image to Watercolour card using Memento tuxedo black and coloured with Inktense Pencils.  These are a little different from ordinary watercolour pencils, the colours are so vibrant when you add a little water.
The dsp is from Basic Grey called Cappella and I've used some die cut lace and 3 Sprinkles in lemon. AnnaBelle's paper cord in Olive to complete the card.



Here's  a quick CAS card using the same image but stamping it with VersaMark and clear embossing to a pre-folded yellow card. With the sentiment stamped to a Label  die and a gold butterfly punched using a MS butterfly punch  it was a very quick card to produce!  Some AnnaBelle white satin ribbon with 3 lemon Sprinkles complete this one.




Don't forget to check the AnnaBelle Store where you'll find most things greatly reduced in price  during June.

Time to Hop over to our super creative KYLIE'S blog I know you'll enjoy your stay with her!!!!
Good Luck!!!!!
