Say it in…Shades of Blue

Posted by on August 17, 2012 in Annabelle Stamps | 10 comments

Friday already? Where has the week gone? Hope yours has been great as mine has been somewhat hectic!

Today the Belles are welcoming another talented lady to the DT and it is Gayatri Murali. Welcome Gayatri. Hope that you will stop by her blog and leave her some love.

Now this week’s challenge at AnnaBelle Stamps is another fun one…shades of blue!

Today the Belles are showing you a sneak peek of a new stamp set that will be officially released this afternoon (at 4pm AEST) and it will also be the prize for this week’s challenge – you will just have to wait until this afternoon for the full reveal.

My card is one that is inspired by this card (5th card down) by Laura Bassen that I have had pinned for ages. I added some distressing to the layers.

Supplies

Stamps: AnnaBelle Stamps Shape it Up stamp set

Ink: Memento Ink – Danube Blue

Card: Regal Craft card – textured, Bazzill Card – various shades of blue from my stash.

Other Supplies: Paper distresser

I will be back this afternoon with the full reveal of the new stamp set and another card and a DT Blog hop. See you then.
