Welcome back for another AnnaBelle's new release, today we are introducing the Squared Posies set!

With both of these cards I just couldn't get past the starry flower, for the first one I used it as a Christmas Poinsettia and the second one I coloured it as a sunflower. 

Next time I think it will be the daisy on the stamping list and will try and keep it in the frame, this weekend I must have had itchy scissor hands!!

Chocolate Wrapper & my 1st little movie tutorial (well maybe) !!

Another creation for Scrapbook Boutique, continuing with the Christmas in July theme.  I tend to make these chocolate covers for a special little gift at Christmas, doesn't cost alot to make but makes the recipient feel oh so special that you have taken the time to dress up a block of chocolate!

Assembling the rosette is a no brainer, check out the tutorial here at the Scrapbook Boutique store.

Did you catch the wonderful announcement over at the blog?...... We have a brand new teamie, the very, very talented Narelle Riley from Scrapparazzi! 

 As you have probably noticed, I do NOT a scrapbook, but looking at Narelle's layouts I am feeling the itch to give it a go- but let's not rush things, it starts with a though, will see where that thought goes.

If it is meant to be it will be!

Anyhoo, onto sharing...........

Now, I am not sure this tutorial will work or not, so I would love your feedback!

I was not able to enlarge it, but maybe you can, the writing on the photos maybe too small to read.
