AnnaBelle Stamps Birthday Challenge #1

Posted by on September 8, 2011 in Annabelle Stamps | 12 comments

Hey there fellow crafties,

This week is Birthday Challenge week at AnnaBelle Stamps because they are turning 2! How exciting! There will be 3 challenges in total.

So to get this party started, Sue W and Kylie are hosting the first challenge on their blogs. Their challenge is to create a project using 3 simple steps:

  1. Use a new stamp
  2. Use a die cut/punch shape
  3. Bling

So  head on over to Sue W and Kylie’s blogs to see what they have created.

NB: This is the first of 3 challenges. All challenges will finish on the 14th September at 12.00pm AEST, so if you miss the first one you can still catch up! Enter any of the challenges for a chance to win one 6 x 4 set of your choice and 3 packs of 6mm Sprinkles! Winners will be announced on the 14th of September on each of the DT blogs.

To be eligible to win the major prize you must :

  • Join in ALL three challenges
  • Add your name to the inlinkz code specially designated on the ABS blog.

Major Prize:

The entire August release (4 stamp sets) and 6 packs of 6mm Sprinkles, valued at $142.20 (RRP)! The major prize winner will be announced on our birthday – 15th September!

So I have dived on in and created a mini set of thanks cards for the first challenge. There are 6 cards in total…but I could only fit 3 in the photo. I did 2 of each colour combo. I used the thanks sentiment from the new AnnaBelle Stamps Squared Posies set, I punched out the flower shapes with a small square punch then rounded 2 of the corners with my Corner Chomper. I added a rhinestone to the centre of each one – very CAS, but very me!

Supplies:

Stamps: AnnaBelle Stamps “Squared Posies”
Ink: Versafine Ink – Onyx Black, Versacolor – Cyan, Turquoise, Lagoon Blue, Turquoise, Camillia, Orange, Kaisercraft – Corn
Card: Regal Craft Card
Other Supplies: Carl Craft Punch – Small square, WRMK corner chomper, Kaisercraft Rhinstones

Hope you can join in on all the fun birthday celebrations! Thanks for stopping by and I’ll see you soon for Birthday Challenge #2.
