Hello. It is Friday again. This week at AnnaBelle Stamps we have a fun sketch challenge for you.

As you can see, I am still in Copic colouring mode – but this time I added in some gel pen to add more interest to the flowers. For the circle element I have embossed a circle using a circle nestie and an embossing mat. The flower centres are blobs of white enamel accents – love this stuff!

I am entering this card into the Simon Says Stamps ‘Flower Power’ Challenge and also into the CASology challenge where the cue card is Bloom.

Be sure to check out the rest of the Belles’ projects – their links are on my side bar.

Wow! It is Friday already! This week at AnnaBelle Stamps we are having an Anything Goes challenge – Woo Hoo! Hope you will play along with us this week.

I decided to make a simple one layer card, colouring the image in with Copics. I am on a Copic colouring phase at the moment 🙂

Good morning,

I am currently taking the latest Online Card Class – His and Hers. I was lucky enough to win a spot 🙂

This is my Day 1 Homework. I have made a His and Her card, both using the same sketch and both using the masking technique that Jennifer McGuire showed us in her Day 1 video. I had fun playing with my new Jane’s Doodle Stamp set called Doodle Flowers to create these single layer cards. Both of these cards use the set. For the His card, I used one of the leaf stamps and created a background. Does it work as a masculine card?

Hello. It is Friday again and that means it is time for another challenge at AnnaBelle Stamps.

Before I get to the challenge though, the AnnaBelle team is very happy to be welcoming a new DT member today and that is Donna Wardle. Make sure you visit her wonderful blog and leave her some love.

Now onto this week’s challenge which is a sketch.

And here is my take…

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.

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.
