Happy Friday everyone,
Hope that you can play along with our sketch challenge this week at AnnaBelle Stamps. See below for the challenge guidelines.
I often see cards in blogland where the stamps and colours are layered. I love cards like this, but I must admit it is not really my style. However I love to challenge myself and decided to give it a go using this week’s sketch. I thought it was safe to use a small frame, rather than tackle layered stamping onto a whole card front. And I added some butterflies with vellum wings (again) like I did on last week’s card.
Supplies:
Stamps: AnnaBelle Stamps Garden Silhouettes stamp set, AnnaBelle Stamps Fanciful Flowers stamp set (sentiment)
Ink: VersaFine ink – Onyx Black, Distress Inks – Frayed Burlap, Worn Lipstick, Antique Linen, Old Paper
Card: Regal Craft Card – white textured, X Press It Blending card, Hero Arts Folded card – Hero Hues – Blush
Other Supplies: Martha Stewart Butterfly punch, vellum, foam dimensionals, Glossy Accents (to adhere butterflies/pearls), AnnaBelle Stamps pearls, Martha Stewart Score Board, Cuttlebug, Die-Namics Layered Label Die
Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out what the rest of the DT have created as well as our January guest designer Cath Dean. The Belles’ links are on my side bar.

Oh my, Marion! I just love those subtle flowers on the bold red background, and then I saw the embossing and loved it even more! It’s fabulous!
This is just beautiful Marion! I adore the colours you’ve used and that wonderful layered stamping on the oval behind the sentiment!!
Your layered stamping looks gorgeous Marion – I love the bold red card and the embossing 🙂
Love what you did with this card Marion! Fabulous, must try this myself! Your colour choices are gorgeous.
Gorgeous card! I admire your creations since they are always so clean but yet so effective. I don’t know how you are able to achieve that… Never been too god at it.
Have a blessed day!
