AnnaBelle Stamps - Say It With Buttons and Bows






Friday's challenge at AnnaBelle Stamps is to 'Say It With Buttons and Bows'.  
I thought I'd have a change from Christmas Cards and make a blue Birthday card this week.
Stamping the flower stems from ABS Stemmed Flowers and a Birthday sentiment from Squared Posies.
ABS wide striped ribbon ties scrumptious bows that make a card a bit special I think!
I used Helmars Scrap Dots to adhere the bow to the front of my card and it worked so well no foam, no glue gun gunk.......love it!


Drop by the Belles blogs to see some amazing creations all the links are under the Design Team tab at the top of my page.  Hope you can play along with us again this week, we love seeing all your cards.

I purchased quite a few rolls of the wide ribbon from Stampin Up in the last few months. This is a wonderful card to case and use some of my stash. Thanks for a beautiful card. Victoria
