Long time, no blog! I have been super busy with life! I went on a school camp last week for 3 days and my hubby is away at the moment, so not a lot of time for crafting!

Having said that, I did whip this one up a couple of days ago. I thought coral and pink made for an interesting colour combo. I’ve been playing around with the Papertrey Ink Quatrafoil die. I added some punched flowers and pearls for some interest.

Thanks for coming into my neck of the woods.

Have a great day,

Hello and welcome back to another AnnaBelle Stamps sketch challenge.

Here’s my take on the sketch. I masked off an area and stamped the lines in various colours before adding the hearts and the sentiment.

This challenge will run for 2 weeks and the winner will receive a $15 Gift Voucher to the AnnaBelle Store. Hope you will play along with us. Be sure to check out the rest of the Belles’ projects – their links are on my side bar.

Hi,
I am back again today sharing another card at the Muse Card Club.

This week I have a card using some of my favourite colours – teals and blues. I created the background by cutting strips in varying widths and adhering them to a panel. I then white embossed my images over the top. The small dots are white enamel accents.

I can’t wait to see how my card inspires you this week.

Here are some of the guidelines if you are unfamiliar with how Muse works.

• Use the Muse card as inspiration, explain your interpretation and link back to Muse.
• Provide supportive comments to at least 3 of your fellow member’s submissions.
• Vote for 3 of your fellow member’s submissions that you find inspiring.

For the full challenge guidelines go here.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you will find the time to play along,

Until next time,

Hello and welcome to AnnaBelle Stamps Friday Feature Blog Hop. You should have arrived from Kylie’s blog.

Today, the Belles are showcasing the Squared Posies Stamp set – an older set, but a good one. I have made a Mother’s Day card, creating a soft palette by  water colouring with Distress Markers onto watercolour paper. To finish the card, I scored some lines around the outside with a scoreboard. I think my Mum will love it – she loves blue.

Now for a GIVEAWAY. If you would like to win the Squared Posies Friday Feature set, comment on all of the DT’s blog and then head back to the ABS blog and add your name to the inlinkz. You have until Sunday 8pm (Australian EST) to enter.

Also ALL flower sets are discounted by 20% when using the discount code ‘flowers’.  This offer will run for a week!

Your next stop on the hop is the AMAZING Therese.

Howdy Partners,

Moxie Fab World are having some super cool challenges at the moment and I wanted to play along…and yesterday I found some time and some mojo!
I am loving green and aqua as a colour combo lately. Super fun. I am entering the first card into Emphasize the Negative Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.

I am entering the second card into the Chevron Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.

Hello and welcome back to another AnnaBelle Stamps challenge. This week we have a colour challenge for you.

I found this colour combo quite tricky as I don’t own a watermelon coloured ink. In the end I found some watermelon coloured patterned paper.

I made the bunting using the centre circles from the new Designer Flowers die (I just cut them in half). I sponged on the clouds and the bird is from this stamp set called A Beautiful Day. The gingham background I made from this background set. I used the second one from the bottom, just stamped it both ways.

I think this card has a very country – quilt feel to it.

This challenge will run for 2 weeks and the winner will receive a $15 Gift Voucher to the AnnaBelle Store. Hope you will play along with us. Be sure to check out the rest of the Belles’ projects – their links are on my side bar.

Thanks for stopping by,

Good evening,
I had some time to play the other day and I came up with this card. I love all the spring colours…I am clinging onto summer, hoping that it will last a little longer even though we have ticked over into autumn.

Short and sweet from me today. Thanks for taking the time to stop by.

Until next time,
