Cherry Blossom Baggie

Hello everyone, it's Annette here again today, but because I've still not been feeling 100% lately (still recovering from that nasty flu bug that's been going around), I've not managed to get a card made for today.  However, I do have another little project to share with you.

The Stamp Basket stocks the gorgeous Saturated Canary rubber stamps and I've been playing with one of my favourites from the new release which is Cherry Blossom.  I've stamped it onto a cotton baggie and coloured it with mainly purple marker pens. I added some sparkly accent with Sakura Stardust gel pens, and then decorated it with matching purple embellishments.

Colouring on the cotton is really difficult as the ink spreads out over the fibres, but I don't think she's turned out too bad.

Hopefully you will agree....

I've sewn ribbon around the top edge, added a crocheted flower with a button centre, a couple of die cuts and some liquid pearls.

Here's a close up of the image. You'll see the ink did run quite a lot, but it has still made a pretty little gift bag.

All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:

• Image - Cherry Blossom Saturated Canary
• Memory Box Macarena Corner Die
• Memory Box Vivienne Butterfly Die
• Liquid Pearls
• Burlap Twine in Natural
• Mixed Christmas Buttons

Pop over to The Stamp Basket to see the lovely array of products on offer.

Happy crafting and have a great week.

Cherry Blossom

Hello everyone.

It's Annette with you today to share a card I've made.  I really adore this new Saturated Canary stamp called Cherry Blossom.

Last time I coloured her in purple, and this time I've used yellow and green.  Green isn't a colour which I'm usually keen on, but I love these yellow and green papers so I've coloured her to match them.

I've stitched all the panels onto kraft coloured shimmer card and chalked some clouds behind the image.

All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:

• Cherry Blossom Saturated Canary Rubber Stamp
• Cardworks Shaped Card base
• Prima Sun Kiss Papers
• Memory Box Macarena Corner Die

Cherry Blossom (& a Little Competition)

Happy Saturday everyone!  It's Annette here today to remind you that The Stamp Basket is now stocking Saturated Canary stamps.  This was the first non-Christmas card that I've made this year, and I really loved it when I'd finished it.  I love the lilac colours and pretty papers.

The pearls in the corner were originally white, but I coloured them with one of my copics (G24) so that they matched my card.  I also coloured the pearl in the middle of my brad which holds on my bow.

As it was one of my new year's resolutions, I've also taken the time to do some stitching on my card (and then regretted it as I manoeuvred around the first part of the fancy shaped card base!!! LOL).  But overall, I'm really pleased with the finished card.  Hope you like her too.

Competition Time:
Before I dash off, I wanted to quickly tell you all that I'm running a little competition on my personal blog.

Some of you might know that I have previously designed and given away lots of freebie sentiments and it's been quite a while since I created any new ones.

That's where I need your help.

I'm looking for some great ideas for sentiments that you'd like to see on future freebies.  To enter the competition, and hopefully receive your sentiment in 'ink', pop over to my blog and leave your suggestion(s) on the competition post.

I look forward to seeing your ideas.
