Annabelle and Tree

We're still celebrating "Christmas in August" at The Stamp Basket and I've got another Annabelle image today, but this time I've sneaked in some traditional red, compared to last week's frosty theme.

The sentiment is a Whimsy Notables stamp cut out with a matching Whimsy Notables die.  It's kind of a vintage image, so I've used vintage style ribbon rather than my usual sleek satin.  The papers are quite contemporary in contrast, but the colours all match to hold the card together.

Card Recipe:

• Image - Wild Rose Studio Annabelle and Tree
• Cardworks Card base
• Nitwit Papers Joyful Hearts Pink Dots and Blue Swirls
• Whimsy Holiday Notables 1 Sentiments
• Neenah Classic Crest White Stamping Card
• Momento Stamp Pad Ink
• Notables 1 Die
• Red Bazzill Card
• Memory Box Whimsical Flourish
• Vintage Style Ribbon
• Liquid Pearls
• Lace
• Crystal Glamour Dust
• Glossy Accents
• Snow White pearls

Happy crafting

Nativity Play

Hi everyone, it's Annette with you today sharing a card using a Wild Rose Studio image from The Stamp Basket called Nativity Play.

I've used a Whimsy Holiday Notables sentiment stamp and matching shaped Notables 1 Die. These are just amazing as they look fabulous in their fancy shapes.  I also am using the Memory Box Poppy Stamps Die Antique Lamp Post for the first time which I think is perfect for a traditional type of card.  I've given it a bit of highlight with a white gel pen.

The gorgeous Red Satin Ribbon really shows up the pretty pearl brad which holds it on the card base.  I push the brad through the backing papers before sticking them down so that the ribbon stays on nice and strongly.

Hope you like my card.

All items are from The Stamp Basket as follows:

• Image - Wild Rose Studio Nativity Play
• Card base - Elegant Square
• Papers - Kaisercraft Twig & Berry
• Sentiment - Whimsy Holiday Notables & Notables 1 Die
