Peas and Carrots


A fun card to share today using some Silhouette cut files, Reverse Confetti stamps, and CAS(E) this Sketch #65.






The peas and carrots are Silhouette files by Jillibean Soup. They're perfect for the sentiment from Reverse Confetti's Go Together.


I love the sketch over at CAS(E} this Sketch, too:



Thanks so much for stopping by!

Reverse Confetti February Blog Hop


It's the 8th of the month -- Blog Hop time at Reverse Confetti! The Confetti Crew and friends have whipped up some fresh inspiration for your enjoyment, so grab a cuppa and cruise on through! The hop begins over on the Reverse Confetti blog, and you should have arrived here by way of Leigh Penner.



For my project, I wanted to show some more love to the amazing Valentine sets from last month's release. I was inspired by photos of colored pencils arranged around a heart opening, and decided to do something similar with the arrows in CRUSHIN'. The tag was die-cut using a TAG ME Confetti Cuts die, the felt heart was die-cut with the LOVE NOTE die set, and the small scallop border was done with the DOUBLE EDGE SCALLOP BORDER Confetti Cuts die. 

Here's another look at that embellishment/sentiment cluster:



I used this month's SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY as the basis for my layout. 


The sketch challenge is open until noon CST on the 14th - plenty of time left to play along!
Link up your entry HERE.





Hope you're enjoying today's hop. Stop by on the 8th of every month for more REVERSE CONFETTI inspiration! Now, it's time to hop over to Sarah Gough's blog. If you get lost or stuck along the way, the full hop list is posted on the Reverse Confetti blog.

How would you like to win some Reverse Confetti goodies of your very own? Leave a comment on each stop along the way for a chance to win a $15 gift certificate to REVERSE CONFETTI. Comments are open until Monday, February 10th at noon CST. The winner will be announced on the Reverse Confetti Blog!

Celebrate the creative side of you!

How Beautiful A Day


Another card to share using the fabulous PAPER CRANE set by Reverse Confetti. 



I thought the light, airy look of Pink Paislee's Portfolio collection would be a good match for the cranes. There's much less actual layering than there may appear to be, since the Portfolio collection has some of that layering designed right into the patterns. The crane was stamped on two coordinating patterns, trimmed and folded for some dimension; the clouds were die-cut, and the sentiment and arrows stamped, in light gray and honey yellow, respectively. Easy-peasy!





Have a super awesome day!

Birthday Wishes Just For You


Reverse Confetti January release stamps and dies + some gorgeous Fancy Pants Collecting Moments papers.



The sentiment was done with Sweet Thing. The tags in the tag trio were die-cut with one of Tag Me Confetti Cuts dies, and the sweet heart garland was die-cut with one of the new Love Note Confetti Cuts dies. The pennant flags in the upper right were stamped with an image from Celebrate Cake.

On the inside, I added a gift card holder pocket and stamped the big word "sweet" -- fun for any gift card, but especially perfect for the Sweet Frog card that's in there now!


I used a light-colored print with a small pattern so there's be room to write a short message and sign the card. The pink/coral scallop border was done with the new Double Edge Scallop Border Confetti Cuts die.













Stamps: SWEET THING , CELEBRATE CAKE (Reverse Confetti)
Paper: Fancy Pants Collecting Moments 6x6 pad, rustic white and kraft card stock
Ink: coral, golden yellow, and light green inks
Accessories: TAG ME and LOVE NOTE Confetti Cuts (Reverse Confetti); navy twine, ivory floss, mini stapler, heart button


Have a super sweet day!
