Hi friends! We're at the end of sweet sneaks for SugarPea Designs - all the new sets will be available after our release party tonight! We've saved an adorable and unique set for last - Totes Ma Goats!


Aren't they sweet?! I wanted to make a feminine card with these cuties. The sentiment is from the previously released Love You Bunches. I watercoloured with distress markers, the clouds are sponged through a stencil.

SugarPea Designs Sweet Sneaks - Hats Off To You!


Hello! We're onto the third day of sweet sneaks for the April release from SugarPea Designs. I had so much fun making my card earlier today - even in the midst of a massive pile of STUFF - I made the mistake of thinking I'd reorganize my craft room. You guessed it - all that stuff is still sitting there, and I've decided I need some new storage *grin*


This set features a male AND a female graduate - so cool! I've used little miss today, coloring with copics and paper piecing her outfit. I heat embossed the diploma image and sentiment on vellum.

Here's a peek inside the card...


This set is worth it for the accesory images alone - here I've heat embossed the cap on vellum again and added a teeny brad.

Reverse Confetti April Hop! {comment to win!}


This is my second post today, for my first card, please click here.

Hello! the 8th of the month is always time to share some Reverse Confetti goodies! You're bound to see lots of spring projects on today's hop, and I have a spiffy little Easter card to share. 


The hop started over on the Reverse Confetti blog, and you should have made it here from Jen Tapler’s blog. It would be worth your while to start at the beginning of the hop, so you don’t miss a thing. We have tons of inspiration for you to see using all of Reverse Confetti’s amazing stamp sets!


As usual, I've mixed and matched lots of Reverse Confetti goodies on my card. Bebe Bunny was colored with copics and I added some detail using pointillism. I trimmed her out and layered her over a frame made with the Love Notes dies and Class Act Confetti Cuts. The sentiment from Carton Cuties was stamped on a copic shaded banner from Beautiful Banners cut with the Beautiful Banners die

I finished the card front with some sparkly gold hearts, a navy button and twine. 

Here's a peek inside my card...


The scallop border was cut with the Double Scallop Edge die

I hope you’ve enjoyed hopping with us today. Be sure and hop with us on the 8th of EVERY MONTH for more REVERSE CONFETTI inspiration! Now it’s time to hop on over to Heather Pulvirenti’s blog. If you get lost along the way, you can find the hop order and list of all the participating designers over 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 Thursday, April 10 at noon CST, and the winner will be announced on the Reverse Confetti Blog!

A few things before you hop along though, just to keep you “in the know”…

SugarPea Designs Sweet Sneaks - Don't Be Koi!


Welcome back to day two of sweet sneaks at the April release from SugarPea Designs! I think you're going to fall in love with today's set - Don't be Koi - it is SO fun!


Isn't that image fab?! And it is so fun to color! I used copics and prismacolor pencils, adding a vellum overlay to the fishbowl. The sentiment is on a vellum banner, and clearly I need an intervention, because there's also a third vellum layer in the background!

Here's a peek inside my card...
