Hey, Fetti Fans!  I'm excited to be up on the Reverse Confetti blog today and sharing a colorful project!  Stop on over to see all of the details :)

Thinking of You

The new Pink & Main August Release is almost here and it's filled with the perfect sentiments for every occasion!

 For my card, I first cut lime green cardstock with one of the Stitched Rectangle Set 1 dies and adhered to the card base.  Using paper from the new Summer Splash Paper Pad, I cut a piece using another die from the Stitched Rectangle Set 1 for the bottom half.  I cut coral cardstock using the Floral Mail Die as the 'frame', cut the matching pattern paper for the 'envelope' and white cardstock for the floral part.

Using the new Just Because stamp set, I stamped the 'thinking of you' sentiment onto the pattern paper then white embossed the other sentiments onto black cardstock.  I then cut out the sentiments using the new Sentiment Banner Dies!

Be sure to check out the Pink & Main blog for more sneak peeks the rest of the Design Team will be sharing!  The new release will be available on August 20th!!

A Special Day

I'm so excited to be up on the Reverse Confetti blog today and to share a card created with one of my favorite sets from the July release!!

 For my card, I first used the Diagonal Stitches Cover Panel to cut a piece of Bumblebee Cardstock and adhered to the cardbase.  I created floral bunches with the new Bold Blooms stamp set and coordinating dies.  Here are the ink colors I used:

• Solid Pink Flower: Rose base, Wine for detail and Midnight center
• Large, Layered Flowers: Piggy Bank for outer and middle of flower, Rose for inner flower and Midnight center
• Small Yellow Flowers: Sunshine base, Rust detail
• Leaves: Avocado base, Midnight detail
• Sprig Leaves: Olive

  The sentiment is one from Sentimental Sayings which I gold embossed on Midnight Cardstock.

 Here's hoping you have a very special day!

You've Got Mail

It's an exciting day because I get to share a Pink & Main sneak peek of a few super adorable products coming in the July 20th release!!

For my card, I cut coral cardstock using one of the new Stamp Post dies. I love the new Envelope Die (seen at the top of my card) which I first cut with white cardstock as the 'base' then cut a color assortment of cardstock and 'colored in' the die with the inlaid die technique. 

And how cuuute is that little succulent image?!  It's from the new Succulents stamps and coordinating dies.  I then stamped one of the sentiments from the new Sent with Love set onto dark grey cardstock cut with one of the Stamp Post dies and another of the sentiments onto the envelope.  I lined my envelope with a pattern paper from the new Pen Pals 6x6 pad.

For the card being shared today, I first cut Cloud White cardstock using the Linked Circles Cover Panel and adhered to the card base.  I then cut Iced Aqua cardstock using one of the Pierced Round Top Layers and stamped the sentiment from the new Sentimental Sayings.  These lovely flowers were stamped and die cut using the new Bold Blooms stamp set and dies!

To complete this little ensemble, I cut Iced Aqua cardstock using the new Fold Over Tag which I stamped another sentiment from the Sentimental Sayings set and added a Bold Blooms flower and leaf.

Tomorrow is Release Day!!  Get ready for an awesome Blog Hop with some special guests!

Make Life Sparkle

Do you know someone who just makes life 'sparkle'?  That person who is always positive, makes people laugh and brightens up a room when they walk in.  I know a few folks like that -- they are an inspiration to me and I feel so blessed to have them in my life!

 For my card, I began by cutting Lead cardstock with the Triangles Cover Plate, taking out a few of the triangles and adhering to the card base.  I then used the die to cut Stormy, Cloud White, Midnight and shiny gold cardstock and filled in the punched out triangles with those colors.

I gold embossed and copic colored the cake from the Cake & Champagne stamp set/coordinating dies.  The flowers and bows were stamped in Midnight, copic colored then popped up onto the cake.  To finish, I gold emboss the sentiment from the same set onto Midnight cardstock.

Thanks to these challenges for the inspiration and letting me share:

You Color My World

You gotta love a rainbow of colors!  Divinity Designs June release inspired me to use lots of bright colors.

First, I layered purple cardstock onto the card base.  I cut white cardstock using one of the Pierced Rectangles dies then, using the new Bubbles stencil, blended a rainbow of colors to create the background.

I cut black cardstock for the 'frame' of the new Globe & Stand die, then cut several colors of cardstock using the same die.  With the inlaid die technique, I 'colored' in the globe.  To finish, I cut yellow cardstock with one of the Scalloped Circles dies and stamped the sentiment from the new Color My World stamp set on white cardstock cut with one of the Circles dies.

Hey There, Honey Bear

Hey, Fetti Fans!  My project is being featured over at Reverse Confetti today - yay!  It would be awesome if you popped over there to see the completed project ensemble and details :)

Sing To The Lord

 Every morning - at 4:00 am - the birds who have nested in our trees wake up and sing!  I think they are singing God's praises and even at that early time of the day, it's really beautiful!

For my card, I began with cutting cardstock using the Tri-Fold card die and cut papers from the Notable Notes pad using the layers dies in the die set.  

 

I then used one of the Circle dies to cut the light blue cardstock that I placed behind the 'world' die cut from the new Globe & Stand dies set.

 

I stamped the sentiment from the new Color My World set onto white cardstock cut with one of the Circles dies and layered with purple paper cut from one of the Scalloped Circle dies then adhered to the front of the Tri-Fold card. To finish, I added the Musical Notes dies cut from Notable Notes paper and cardstock.
