Deconstructing Sketch #108 - Hello Friend...


You will never guess where I am at this very moment, nar, you won't so I'll just have to tell you... I'm at the Adelaide Entertainment Center watching P!nk!!! I know it's the morning for some of you but it's 7.30pm here and right about now I am sitting in the Enter Center with my sister Cindy, her bestie Hayley and my BFF Wendy.... Ya!! Can you tell I'm a tad excited?! Anywhoo... Enough about my social life... Where are here for this week's Deconstructing Sketch! This week our lovely and sooooo sweet DT member Joni Wilson has come up with something amazing for you to try....

Here's my card...



And here's Joni's sketch....


For this card I started off by stamping my Annabelle Stamps "Daisy Delights" on white cardstock using my Stamping Up "Baja Breeze" water-based ink pad, my Clearsnap Vivid mini "Straw" acid free dye inkpad and my Memento Tuxedo Black ink pad. I did this to match the papers I had picked out for this card, Fancy Pants "Park Bench" 6x6 paper pad. The "Hello Friend" sentiment comes from my Annabelle Stamps "Garden Silhouette" stamp set. You can find both these stamp sets HERE at the Annabelle Stamps Store. The butterfly is from Martha Stewart.


 
 
Here's what you have to do to if you want to play along with us...

1. Use the sketch above to make a project, any kind you like using any image you like.
2. Post it somewhere on the internet. Use keyword DS108 if you post to an online gallery like Splitcoaststampers.
3. Link back here to Inlinkz at the bottom of the post so we can stop by and see it.
4. Check back here next Wednesday to see if you are one of this week’s favorites and grab a badge for your blog.

ABS - Friday Feature 009. Backgrounds By Design...







Today I have another Annabelle Stamps Friday Feature to share with you! For this FF Andrea asked us to make a card using one of the gorgeous Backgrounds By Design Stamp Sets...











 This is the set that I decided to use... BBD3!



I actually really struggled with this card. I was torn between what background I was going to use and then when I did chose I had no idea where or what I was going to do with it...



.... So I basically kept the whole thing very simple. I used some design papers I had left over from a previous card and started with that. I then stamped the background stamp with my Baja Breeze Stampin' Up ink pad and the rest fell into place...



I still don't know if I like this card... It's not really my style and I find it doesn't "pop" the way I had hoped it would but this is how it finished... Well, you can't love every card you make completely can you? ...LOL! 


Now remember, for this weekend only any of the "Backgrounds By Design" clear stamp sets are 20% off at the Annabelle Stamps Store...20% peoples!!!! So head on over there and checkout the amazing store and all the amazing stamps, embellishments, paper, digi's, ribbon and twine etc that Andrea has to offer! And while your blog hopping this weekend go and checkout what the other Belles have created using these delicious stamps sets... because WOW... you will not want to miss them!
