Hello and welcome to another Friday Feature at AnnaBelle Stamps. This week the Belles are showcasing Easter sets – as Easter is fast approaching! Check out the Easter deal that Andrea has for this weekend only.

Today I have made some chocolate wrappers for my kids for Easter. Let me just say I originally intended to make 4…but the 4th chocolate went missing 😉

Here is a close up of each one.

The blue Easter Joy one is my favourite. Those Easter chicks are just too cute! And what is on the inside?

I am entering these into the Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes Challenge.

Be sure to drop by the rest of the Belles to check out their projects. Their links are on my sidebar. And also stop by Gayatri’s blog as she is stepping down from the AnnaBelle DT. It has been a pleasure working alongside her. I wish you all the best Gayatri.

Are you ready for a new AnnaBelle Stamps sketch challenge?

I turned the sketch for this one. The background had me scratching my head for a little while, until the idea of using some patterned paper popped into my head…which is such a rarity for me!

This challenge will run for 2 weeks and the winner will receive a $15 Gift Voucher to the AnnaBelle Store. I 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. Also make sure you also visit Janet O’Brien’s blog as she is Guest Designing with us.

Hellooooo,
I am very excited to be here sharing my first card as a designer for the Muse Card Club. Have you played along with us yet?

Today’s card is actually ink-free! What? Yep, you heard me… no ink! I created the background using two different washi tape patterns…I lined up the chevrons to create a really nifty diamond pattern. I think the yellow, orange and teal colour combo is so bright and happy!

I die cut the sentiment and used the negative space…backing it with some teal card stock. Hopefully you can see it better in this photo.

I would love to see how you are inspired by my card. Here are some of the guidelines…

• 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 dropping by and I hope you will find the time to play along,

Until next time,

I am popping in REALLY quickly as it is late and I should be going to bed!

This is a mini card – about 7.5cm by 7.5cm. Very cute. We don’t tend to do Valentine’s Day in our household, so it didn’t go to my hubby – a friend of mine wanted it for hers! Ha! My hubby did make pancakes for the kids for breaky on Valentine’s Day and I asked for some love heart ones, and he did it!

I am entering this into a couple of challenges. CASology’s cue this week is Red and the Scrapbook Boutique is having a love challenge inspired by the following photo.

Oh and here are the pancakes with maple syrup! They were yum!

Short and sweet. Thanks for dropping by,

Hello and welcome to the new stamp release blog hop for AnnaBelle Stamps. You should have arrived from the very sweet Kylie’s blog.

Today, two new stamp sets are being released along with some new dies! First up here is the stamp set Easter Chickadee with matching dies!

For this card I used the dies and a sentiment and created a colourful stack of birds.

Next I used some of the cute flowers from the set to create a little garden scene.

And last but not least is the Easter Blessings stamp set. I just fell in love with those tulips!

Now for a GIVEAWAY. If you would like to own both of the new stamp sets and matching dies, 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.
