Countdown to Confetti - Word Up & Hatbox Florals

Welcome to day one of the Countdown to Confetti March Release.   This is a fabulous release!   I am absolutely in love with everything that Jen has brought us with this release!!!!!    I had so much fun creating projects, so let's get started sharing the projects that I have for you today!   I have some of the new dies and I will be sharing several projects that I made with Word Up and Hatbox Florals.   

Word Up is such an awesome sentiment stamp set.   The font is tiny and perfect!   There are XX sentiments in this stamp set!   I stamped a sentiment on a strip of Midnight card stock and then white heat embossed it.    For my card I used the new Confetti Cuts Word Duo: hello and thanks.   

 I used my Gansai Tambi watercolors and created two panels with greens and blues.   I then die cut the word hello from the watercolor panel and layered several hello die cuts from white card stock.   The pocket is actual a new tag called Stitched Hex Tag.   I cut off the top of the tag with the hole and made it look like a pocket.    

I thought of this afterward but I could have just put adhesive on the sides and you could put a gift card in the pocket!   I layered my watercolored panel with a previously released Striped Circle Cover Panel Confetti Cuts.   

  

I made two cards with the Word Up stamp set and paired with the new Confetti Cuts Word Duo's.   I had so much fun with the watercolor panel in my first card, that I did another watercolor panel this time with a rainbow theme!   Again, I did two panels so that I could die cut the word hooray using the new Word Duo cheers & hooray Confetti Cuts.  

 I again layered the watercolor die cut with several hooray's cut from white cardstock.   I stamped my sentiment again onto a strip of Midnight cardstock and then white heat embossed it.   I nestled it with the Word Duo hooray die cut and adhered it directly to the card panel.     For my main card panel, I used another previous released Triangles Cover Panel Confetti Cuts.    I then added some jewels in the rainbow colors to the card for some sparkle. 

  I love these new Word Duos!   There are a total of four sets:  hello & thanks, cheers & hooray, love & xoxo, and finally mom & dad.    These are perfect to pair with the new Word Up stamp set!    

For my final project today, I made a Mother's Day card with the new Hatbox Florals Stamp and Confetti Cuts.   I started off with a white card panel and used the floral image and stamped it several times masking it to cover the top corner of the card panel.   I then colored it with my Copic markers.    

I die cut a Stitched Hex Tag and then stamped and embossed a sentiment from Hatbox Florals and then layered it on top of the colored card panel.    I stamped and die cut the floral hatbox and colored it with my Copics.    I then added it with foam tape to the tag.    The card panel was mounted onto a frame that was die cut with the new Stitched Rectangles Frame Confetti Cuts.    I layered it behind my card panel instead of on top of the panel.   You can see one of the three stitched lines on the rectangle frame.   

I added a thin ribbon to my tag that I had in my stash.   It was an older Martha Stewart ribbon.   I loved how it turned out and now I am ready for Mother's day!   This stamp set is perfect for creating really sweet feminine cards!
