Reverse Confetti...February Creative Hop...Here's The Story


Hello fellow 'Fetti Friends! Welcome to the February Creative Hop...I love Jen's saying "8 is great" I have to agree, especially this month as today is my B-day and I couldn't think of a better way to spend it, but with Reverse Confetti



Today, we have a fun Creative Challenge this month - ABC, Anything but a card! This was the perfect challenge to make a SN@P book page with the NEW Reverse Confetti Documented Confetti Cuts, Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panels and the Here's the Story Stamp set

If you arrived here from Heather's blog you are in the right spot, if not head on over to the Reverse Confetti blog for the full list of all the blogs and start at the beginning.  Be sure to leave comments on all the blogs along the hop for a chance to win!

I decided to create a SN@P layout of some of the things I love, love, love...coffee, my Keurig, cuddling up with a good book and a coffee. This layout was the perfect chance to use my Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panels. I used the 3X4 rounded rectangle die from the Documented Confetti Cuts to cut the Quick Card panel. I used a few other dies from the Documented Confetti cuts and the Circles 'N Scallops, Tag Me and the heart from the Love Note Confetti Cuts. This page fits the 6X8 SN@P book pocket.

Again, I used the 3X4 die from the Documented Confetti Cuts to cut a couple Quick Card panels and cardstock. I also used the Tag Me Confetti Cuts and I stamped sentiments from the Here's the Story Stamp set documenting a few more things I love...Hannah and I at the cottage for Kate's (now my sister-in-law) bridal shower, Kato and his beautiful blue eyes and the fam at the Maroon 5 and One Republic concert. 

Thanks SO much for hopping by and havin' a little look at my SN@P book pages with the Reverse Confetti Documented Confetti Cuts, Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panels and the Here's the Story Stamp set. Now hop on over to Lisa's blog to see what gorgeous ABC creation she has in store!

I made my card with Authentique Grateful 6x6 papers and this Irish fella from the Irish Hello Stamp set was lots of fun to colour with my Copics. I cut him out with rectangle dies and left the image in the die, inking with Forest Moss Distress ink. I stamped the sentiment Dia Dhuit, Gaelic for hello, on tag and added a little die-cut shamrock.  I added a few Olive Gumdrops too.

I finished off the inside of the card too...I stamped a shadow of the Irish fella from the NEW Irish Hello Stamp set and I used the Open Scallop Die Set for the sentiment panel. I stamped another sentiment from the Irish Hello Stamp set and added few more Olive Gumdrops.

Thanks SO much for hopping by and havin' a wee peek at my YNS card with the NEW Irish Hello Stamp set. Please have a look at the Link-up bellow and hop around to the rest of the YNS designers...Brianna is up next!

Your Next Stamp...February Release...Wild Ride




Hello Stampin' friends! I'm SO excited about guesting for Your Next Stamp this month! We are kicking of the February release with a little sneak peek! Make sure to stop by the Your Next Stamp blog for all the release details and to see all the other previews that the YNS DT have to share.

I made a baby card with some Authentique Be(you)tiful 6X6 papers and inked up just the sweet zebra from the NEW Wild Ride stamp set. I stamped the zebra on pattern paper, added some shading with my Copics, cut him out and popped him up on the tag. To embellish, I added a sprinkling of pretty yellow YNS Gumdrops and added some yellow AC Hemp twine. The  NEW Wild Ride Stamp set also comes with a little baby going for a "wild ride" on the zebra and some darling sentiments....I adore the scripty font used in this set too.

Thanks SO much for stopping by and havin' a little sneak peek at my card with the NEW Wild Ride stamp set. Pop back tomorrow for the Your Next Stamp February Release Blog Hop.

As soon as I saw this cute bunny from the, Smiley Happy Critter Crew Three stamp set, I knew I had to ink him up...he is pure hoppiness! I used a mix of Pink Paislee Switchboard and Fancy Pants Trend Setter 6X6 papers.  I coloured the Smiley Happy bunny with my Copics, cut him out and popped him up on the circle panel made with the YNS Open Scallop Die Set.

Reverse Confetti...SFYTT # 21...All Things Grow with Love


Hello fellow 'Fetti Fans! It's the start of a new month and frankly I'm glad to see January come to end. I spent most of January quite sick and I'm just starting to feel like my old self...except for the annoying cough that is hangin' around.

Well, we have a fabulous NEW Sketch For You To Try over at Reverse Confetti and it's a fun one, as always! We would love to see your RC creations with the SFYTT # 21 sketch, link up your project over on the Reverse Confetti blog in the link-Up and one lucky winner will receive a $20 gift certificate to the Reverse Confetti Shop.






Here is the great February Sketch and all the challenge details are on the Reverse Confetti Blog -SFYTT #21.

I adore the NEW Reverse Confetti Love Blooms Stamp set and Love Blooms coordinating Confetti Cuts.... just can't get enough of this new set so I had to use it again. The large rounded rectangle from the Documented Confetti Cuts is fabulous too...I pulled out an embossing folder that I haven't used in ages to add a little texture to the panel. The little fishtail flag is from the Documented Confetti Cuts I just trimmed off the one end and I added a heart from the Heart to Heart Confetti Cuts.

I stamped a sentiment from the Love Blooms Stamp set (LOVE the scripty font) and stamped it on Primitive White Card Stock cut with the Tag Me Confetti Cuts. I also cut the Love Blooms Confetti Cuts from Primitive White Card Stock and stamped the solid flower in Paver Red Premium Dye Ink and then Stamped the line art flower in Steel Grey Premium Dye Ink...I really like how this looks...and of course I stamped the cute leaves from the set too.

I finished off the inside too...I kept it pretty simple...I added another embossed panel but wanted to have more room to write a personal message inside the card so I used the smaller rounded rectangle from the Class Act Confetti Cuts and I stamped the sentiment from the Roundabouts Additions

Thanks SO much for stopping by and havin' a little peek at my card with this month's Sketch For You To Try # 21. I hope you can make some time to make a Reverse Confetti card and join us for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate to the Reverse Confetti Shop.
