Welcome back to another tutorial for Scrapbook Boutique. Today I’ve used these gorgeous stamps from Teresa Collins called Tell Your Story, they stamp beautifully and how sweet are those frames! I’ve also been using some more of those new fab colours from Memento, this Morocco is such a vibrant bright orange, LOVE it! Of course I have listed all the products I’ve used below or you can head over to Scrapbook Boutique yourself, Evelyn is adding new products ALL the time!

Although I have added just a little grey, we are Saying it with… Shades of Pink & White this week at AnnaBelle Stamps! Pink is definitely not my ‘go to’ colour, so I found this challenge…. a challenge.

It’s Friday and time again for another Challenge at AnnaBelle Stamps Blog! This would have to be one of my all-time faves, it’s to Say it With…. A Stamped Background! {ac070} I have an addiction to a certain set… and you will of course note that I stayed away from this said set (it did take a little effort though). Instead I used this awesome diamond pattern, I thought it would be perfect as I needed a wedding card and it’s such an elegant design!

It’s Friday and that means that it’s time for another challenge to begin at AnnaBelle Stamps Blog. But today is not a normal day, and I’m not sure if you are superstitious or not…. but this week the challenge is to Say it In…. Friday 13th Black! Well, I don’t think that my card is very scary, but there certainly is some black happening. My apologies for the photos , if you look carefully you may be able to see a music note background on the black… or not (promise it’s really there)! News flash just in… AnnaBelle Stamps is having a SALE today!

It’s the first of the month (and April fools Day…… ) and that means that it’s time again for another Print Candee post. Today Jocelyn has been very specific about what she wants us to do…. it’s Anything Goes! Well that really does open the flood gates, have you seen the variety and awesomeness that is Print Candee, it’s actually very difficult to choose, Go take a look for yourself HERE, you will love it!
So recently I’ve had the urge to watercolour, I keep having these glorious visions and when I saw this Bird Artwork by Adrienne Looman Designs, she had me at Hello! Oh, and I’ve had my eye on these Heavy Metal Frames by Lilmade for some time and when I saw Print Candee’s Shiny Metal Alphabet… it’s as good as the Polished Wood Alphabet I knew it was perfect. Now originally I had no background plans at all and the card was looking a little less glamorous than I visioned, then after just a little troll through all the paper packs available I found this little gem by Digital Potpourri called Icy Blue, and in ‘real life’ the colour is, what can I say… superb!
One more thing before I finally do go, please go visit the other DT members, they are honestly such a talented bunch, you can find their links in my sidebar! Enough rattling on, here is my ‘glorious vision’…. slightly different to my normal style.

I’m entering this card in the current challenge over at Simon Says Stamp, it fits the bill because it’s Anything Goes!
It’s time for Topical Tuesdays over at Stamp, Embellish, Create with AnnaBelle Stamps. Andrea has created such an amazing papercrafting community, where we can share our ideas and learn, it’s just wonderful (and the best news is that it’s free)!

I’ve been diligently making my husbands’ birthday card… and hiding it everytime he walks near, that’s when the kitten isn’t walking over my papers, or lying directly in the middle of my workspace or playing with my pens… times sure are funny!
I decided to play with a couple of challenges, I was inspired by the current ‘Distress Mania’ at Lawnscaping Challenges and then I made a ‘simpler’ (I think I just made up this word) version for the challenge at CAS-ual Fridays‘Jest for the Pun of it’! Kathy from the The Daily Marker has this awesome tutorial on how to make a ‘moon’ using copics, I used distress inks for mine combined with copics, thanks for the fantastic lesson Kathy!

I was asked to make a wedding card and since I recently won this awesome set of stamps from the very talented Annette, I couldn’t wait to ink them up! I just embossed the cake and removed the candles and voila… a wedding cake! I was inpsired by Virginia’s View at Lilypad Cards, this was perfect timing for me as I was stuggling for ideas! I would also like to join this week’s challenge at Less Is More where the theme is ‘Punches or Die cuts’.
