Reverse Confetti August Color Challenge

Hello! I'm popping in quickly with my take on this month's awesome Reverse Confetti Color Challenge


I love these colors - and went a little bit nautical with my Sweet Treat Tent.


I used some cute images and sentiments from Happy Harbor - layering them on a Chevron Pretty Panel, Love Note Die, and using the reinforcer from Tag Me, Too.

The Sweet Treat Tent was stamped with the wide stripe from So Stripey.

Happy Birthday Jen! I've used Be a Barista on my card today, layering up the fussy cut and pieced cup on some of my fave Confetti Cuts, the Beautiful Banners, Love Note and Class Act dies. The paper is Crate Paper DIY Shop, the cardbase is a primitive cream cardstock and I've sponged very lightly with Antique Linen Distress Ink.

SFYTT August!


Hello! I'm popping in today to share my take on the current Sketch For You To Try at Reverse Confetti!


This is a fun one with lots of layers to play with!


I wanted to ink up the new Fresh 'n Fruity stamp set again, I've also used the matching Confetti Cuts. The focal layer was created with the Love Note and Class Act Confetti Cuts. I inked the leaves and lemons up with two colors for some depth and shading. The papers are W R Memory Keepers Farmer's Market - perfect match!

Good Things...


...Come in small packages! Today I have a little pillow box to share. I love mini boxes like this, they are a perfect canvas for smaller stamps. I've used some goodies from i {heart} papers on this one.


I paired the Herbs and Honey papers with the Basic Banners and Pretty Patches Apple sets from Wplus9. The inks are memento luxe and I've embellished simply with some twine and sequins. Simple and sweet!

i {heart} papers is open and ready for your orders! Check out what's new HERE!

Reverse Confetti August Hop!


Welcome! It's the 8th of the month, that means it's Reverse Confetti hopping time!


Hop along today for your chance to win a $15 gift certificate to spend at Reverse Confetti!


It's been awhile since I made a card using only stamps - I had SO much fun getting inky! I've combined the new, VERY popular Fabulous Flamingos stamps and matching Confetti Cuts with the Petals 'n Posies stamps and matching Confetti Cuts.

To create the vine background, I sponged with distress inks and over stamped the vine from Petals 'n Posies in Memento Luxe ink. I made my flamingo gold, why not, right?!

The background stripes are from So Stripey.

It's time to hop on over and visit with the wonderfully talented Heather. If you need to start at the beginning of the hop, jump on over to the Reverse Confetti blog!






SugarPea Designs Sweet2Repeat Hop!


Welcome to the SugarPea Designs Sweet2Repeat blog hop!



Today all the SugarPeas are hopping, showing off even more ways to use the FABULOUS July release - Seaside Wishes, Great Catch, Spare Me and Twinkle Twinkle. We know you’re going to be inspired!


I'm using my fave cutie from the release today - Great Catch. I've kept it simple, trimming out mr racoon and highlighting him on a heavy vellum circle, with a banner accent. I've curved the sentiment before stamping (hint: stamping on woodgrain cardstock means you'll end up with a few missed spots - I like to fill these in with a super fine pen)


*swoon* he's so cute! I stamped the fish a second time and tied him to some split twine for a different look to the fishing rod.




It's hop time! Leave a comment at each spot along the way for a chance to win $10 to spend on some SugarPea sweetness of your very own!
