Welcome back for Day Two of Reverse Confetti's January Countdown to Confetti! Over the next couple days, the Design Team will be sharing sneek peeks of the new release available on January 8th!
I created three sweet Valentine's Day gifty items perfect to give to teachers, co-workers, kids and other special people in your life!
For my first project, I created a tag that I attached to a jar filled with candy. The tag was made by first cutting Salsa cardstock and a pattern from the new From Cupid Paper Pad using the Grid Stitched Tag die then adding the hanger cutting Piggy Pink cardstock using one of the Hang Ups Too dies. I used the Criss Cross Cover Panel to cut Piggy Pink cardstock then cut out the heart using one of the new Pattern Hearts dies. This cute little puppy is from the new Heart Pals stamp set and coordinating dies; the sentiment is from the new Love You Most stamp set.
Next, this little gift bag (found at the dollar store) is great to use to tuck in a gift certificate, treats, little crafty items (for those special crafty friends), etc. The tag was created by first cutting a pattern from the new From Cupid Paper Pad using the Topped Off Tag die; the top was cut from Salsa cardstock using the coordinating Heart Tag Toppers die. The heart shape was cut from Salsa cardstock using one of the new Pattern Hearts dies. This adorable kitty is another image in the Heart Pals stamp set with coordinating dies as is the sentiment.
Wrapping up a candy bar makes for an easy sweet treat! I first wrapped a piece of Dark Roast cardstock around the Hershey bar. Then using the Diagonal Stitches Cover Panel, cut Piggy Pink cardstock and wrapped a strip of it over the Dark Roast cardstock then layered a small strip of a pattern from the From Cupid Paper Pad. The tag was created cutting Rose cardstock using one of the dies in the Scalloped Bag and Tags Creator and a sentiment from the Love You Most stamp set. How darling is this little bear image from the Heart Pals stamp set?!
For my last project today, I cut Premier White cardstock using the Diagonal Stitches Cover Panel then blended several distress oxide ink colors to create the background. The new Big Bear stamp set with coordinating dies is too darn cute and the sentiments are simply perfect!
This set is really versatile for many occasions. The die for the big bear cuts around his/her arms making it simple to add any of the little images: bouquet, heart, envelope, coffee cup, knitting, wagon or dog's leash!
I know the Big Bear set is going to be a 'go to' for me as is the Diagonal Stitches Cover Plate!!
