Annabelle Stamps Blog Hop

Welcome to another blog hop hosted by Annabelle Stamps. Todays hop is all about Holly, the Holly Branch stamp set which you can find here.

For my card I combined two of the holly images and stamped a mistletoe.

I used Distress Ink to colour my cardstock and sprayed it with Perfect Pearls for a soft shimmer. I embossed the holly images, colored the leaves with a Spica Glitter Pen and added some pearls. I really like the larger size of the sentiments (which was stamped on vellum), they cover a card front nicely.

Now your next stop on the hop is Andrea.

To keep our hop as fun and simple as possible, click through each of the DT blogs to see what they’ve created using this set. You can comment if you like, and leave your name using the Inlinkz on any of the DT blogs, or on the AnnaBelle Stamps blog.


You don’t have to comment on all of our blogs, just remember to add your name for your chance to win the Blog Hop prize which is the Ornamental Christmas stamp set. The hop will run for 1 week and the winner will be announced next Tuesday!

    A really pretty and cas card Sue. Love the non traditional colours for the background and that vellum strip is super. I might have to try a sentiment on vellum I think! Great card.

    Great card Sue.....I love the sentiment on vellum, and you are right......the sentiment size is great for the whole width of a card.
