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!
