AnnaBelle Stamps Blog Hop: Release Day 1

Posted by marion on August 2, 2011 in Annabelle Stamps | 22 comments

Hi there fellow crafties,

I have some super exciting news to share with you today! I have been invited by the wonderful Andrea to join the AnnaBelle Stamps Design Team….and I couldn’t be more excited! I am officially now a Belle!

Annabelle Stamps is an Australian online business that carries an original range of high quality photopolymer stamps…check out the store and have a little lookie, not only at their stamp range but other stamping essentials as well (like Copics, inks, twine etc).

Anyway, onto the blog hop where the DT are showcasing the new stamp set ‘Whimsy Flowers’ which is being released into the store this Friday. If you have hopped over from Patti’s blog you are in the right place.

I thought that it was fitting to start my time here at AnnaBelle stamps with a hello card.

Aren’t these flowers just the cutest? Lots of distressing used for the background and the flower was painted with watered down distress inks to give a watercolour look. The green gems are AnnaBelle’s Lime Sprinkles and I also used striped grosgrain ribbon from the store.

AnnaBelle Stamps Blog Hop:

Come and join us the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month as we have fun sharing a new set with you!

How to Play:

To keep our hop as fun and simple as possible, click through each of the DT blogs to see what they’ve created using this set. You can comment if you like, and leave your name using the Inlinkz on any of the DT blogs, or on the ABS blog. You don’t have to comment on all of our blogs, just remember to add your name for your chance to win the Blog Hop prize!
Along with each of our blog hops we will announce a special deal 🙂

• The prize for this week’s blog hop will be the set Whimsy Flowers.
• All the sets will be available from Friday when we release the last one Dotted Flowers.
• The special deal will be: Purchase the entire release for $99.95 (RRP $118.80) and also get free postage! A perfect time to try our stamps if you haven’t already!
• The special deal will start on Friday and run until the following Tuesday.

I know the rest of the team will have some stunning creations to inspire you. Make sure you stop by and leave them some love. Next stop on the hop is the AnnaBelle Stamps Blog.
