Oh Yea! Happy Day

[Scroll down, or click HERE, for my Penny Black guest designer post]

It's no secret -- I LOVE making cards. I can get happily lost in the creative process for HOURS! But we all know sometimes you just need (or want) to make something quickly. Reverse Confetti's new Quick Card Panels are perfect for creative quickies!

For this card, I clear embossed the sentiment "oh, yea!" from HERE'S THE STORY onto the happy day Quick Card Panel.

I stamped the "two fourteen" circle from CRUSHIN' in red, cut it out and popped it up onto the quick card panel. Then, for a quick accent, I added a twine hanger and a little flag that I die-cut using a die from DOCUMENTED. I rounded the corners of the quick card panel, then adhered it to a white card base. So quick, so easy, and so fun!

STAMPS: HERE'S THE STORY, CRUSHIN'

DIES: DOCUMENTED Confetti Cuts

INK: VersaMark, Hero Arts Red Royal

PAPER: Reverse Confetti Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panels, white card stock

OTHER: twine, foam tape, corner rounder

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Love & Friendship Guest Designer with Penny Black

I am so thrilled today to share that I'll be a guest designer with Penny Black all week. Oh my wow! I'm sure I stand with many stampers who can say Penny Black stamps were among the very first in their collections. The lovely floral and nature images were the first to capture my heart, then came the critters, and now Mimi, and dies, and stencils, and more! It is such an honor to be featured on the Penny Black blog this week, and I invite you to join me over there!

I'll be featuring many of the products from Penny Black's newest release, Love and Friendship. Here's a little peek at my project for today:

You can see the rest on the Penny Black blog!

Thanks for sharing in my excitement! Have a fabulous week!
