Say it in…Sentiments

Posted by on November 4, 2011 in Annabelle Stamps, Challenges | 16 comments

Welcome to another challenge at AnnaBelle Stamps. This week’s challenge is one that made my heart skip a beat – Say it with Sentiments.

I didn’t use as many sentiments as I had planned to, but I did use one sentiment many times…hope this still counts! Either way, I had fun making this card and I hope that it inspires you to play along with us!

I finally got to play with some new MFT dies that I won about a month ago – LOVE them! I used a tiny little ‘love’ sentiment from the Squared Posies set and also the background script stamp from BBD6 set. I finished it off with some AnnaBelle pearls and a twine bow! I am entering this into the current Wee Memories Challenge #74 – to use buttons, brads or bows.

Supplies:

Stamps: AnnaBelle Stamps “Squared Posies” stamp set, AnnaBelle Stamps “Backgrounds By Design 6” stamp set
Ink: Distress Ink – Barn Door, Versafine Ink โ€“ Vintage Sepia
Card: Regal Craft Card – White textured
Other Supplies: AnnaBelle Rose pearls – 4mm, AnnaBelle Stamps natural jute twine, MFT die – Hearts-a-Plenty, MFTย  die – Layered Labels, Cuttlebug, Paper piercer, Tim Holtz Ruler, sponge dauber, foam dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the DT have created, including our Guest Designer Sue McRae. Their links are on my side bar. Hope you can play along with us!
