AnnaBelle Stamps - Mother's Day Bouquet



Hi Blogger's,

Before we get into the Blog Hop I'd just like to remind you that the Sketch challenge #036 is still running if you haven't got your card in yet here's the link........go check it out!

OK time for another AnnaBelle Blog Hop............ All the details at the end of this post.
Today the Belle's are sharing another of the NEW sets with you.  This one is called Mother's Day Bouquet and was designed by Iwona.  I've been itching to show some cards made with these images, they can be dressed up or used in a more CAS style........see what you think.



I've made a set of three cards to share today and try as I might I couldn't take a picture of the three together so here we go:


No1. Roses:
Lots of stitching on all three cards. I've coloured with Copic Markers and shaded in areas with Prisma pencils and OMS.  AnnaBelle tamps white hemp and a button from the Colour families collection.  Do you like the gingham?  I'm a gingham fan.......it goes with most things. All three cards feature  this pretty Papaya gingham which is one of 24 colours available as a Digital Download from the Store.  White hemp and watch out for buttons too that fit in with the colour families products.





Lilies for the second card with some paper piecing for the vase this time.
This pretty DP is from Pebbles it's a 12 x 12 and I have most of the sheet left to play with.  Three Pumpkin Sprinkles  6mm for the bling.


Now for the third card Tulips. 

All three cards start with a base of Ivory that has the scalloped edge added to the front.  The mat for all three is American Crafts Rust card stock.

 I used one of the new background By Design sets # 5 on each of these cards and this one I didn't mask, rather I stamped the background followed by the image.   I don't mind the way it looks how about you?  Once again just 3 Pumpkin Sprinkles to complete.




Before I send you on your way I have one more card using the Vase of Roses.



This is pretty pink card with lots of glitter that sadly the camera won't show. The DSP is Kaisercraft Candy Lane Collection 6" paper pad.  Organza ribbon adds it's own shine.

Now your next stop is Kylie and from Kylie you travel over to Iwona's Blog. All the Belle's links are in the folder marked Design Teams on the left side bar.
