Reverse Confetti Banners in Bloom

Hello there!  I am popping in to share a card that I made for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge.   I went with colors that are not my normal go to.   I decide to use some purples and yellows today.  










 I watercolored the floral images from Banners in Bloom on watercolor cardstock.   I die cut them out with the Banners in Bloom Confetti Cuts.   The sentiment is from One Day at a Time and was white heat embossed onto Midnight cardstock and then layered onto Royal Purple cardstock.  







 I die cut the small Wreath from Grape Soda cardstock and then layered behind my floral images.   I used a Kraft card base and panel that had been die cut with the Stitched Rays Cover Panel along with inking the edges of the panel with some kraft ink.   I added some clear sparkling sequins to finish off my card.  










Here is a link for the Freshly Made Sketch challenge.   Play along if you get the opportunity.  I hope you have an excellent weekend!   Thanks for stopping by!

Reverse Confetti - Simple Father's Day Card

Hello!  Popping in to share and really simple and easy Father's Day card using Tie-rific stamp set and  Tie-Rific Confetti Cuts.




I made a 4/14 square card using the Stitched Squares using the two largest dies and making a frame from white card stock.   I stamped the tie image from Tie-Rific stamp set and then die cut it the stamped image along with two images from patterned paper.   I used Cheerful & Kind pattern paper pad.   I also die cut three ties from white card stock to add some more dimension to the ties.  







 I adhered the ties directly to the card base and stamped my sentiment and then added my frame with dimension adhesive.    That was it!   I love sometimes just making quick and simple cards.    




Thanks for stopping by!    I hope you have an amazing day!    

I am including my card in the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Frame It

My Favorite Things - Little Buddies

Hey there!  Happy Monday!   I made a card yesterday using the My Favorite Things stamp set called Little Buddies.    I used this past Wednesday Sketch challenge from MFT Card Challenges Sketch to create my card.  




I colored the images from Little Buddies with Copic markers.   I decided to add a die cut tree using the Tree-Mendous die cut using Sour Apple and Hot Fudge card stock.   I added some Sour Apple ink around the edges of the tree.  I used the You're It tag, which is retired cut from Smooth White card stock.   I added a Pierced Fishtail Flag to ground the images.      For my card panel, I stamped it with the new Background stamp, Radiating Halftone with Sour Apple ink onto Smooth White card stock.   I trimmed this piece down to 3 3/4 by 5 inches and framed it with some Nightshift Navy card stock.  This was added to a Sour Apple card base.   I decided to stamp the sentiment onto the main card panel using Black Licorice Hybrid ink.  







For today's card, I am playing along with the Sketch Challenge from Card Challenges and the Daily Marker Coloring Challenge.  



That is it for me today!   Hope you have great week!

Reverse Confetti - Father's Day Card


Happy Sunday! Hope you have had a great weekend!   I have a Father's Day card to share using Tie-rific stamp and Confetti Cuts.    I used this week Color Throwdown Challenge and just love the Black, White and Aqua color combination.  







I used the Big Stripes Cover panel and cut from white cardstock and then backed it with a Midnight card base.  I used the negative square from the Diamond Stripe Square Confetti Cut that had been die cut from Iced Aqua card stock.   I had this leftover from another project and just tuck them into my stamp pocket with the die.    I die cut the dad from Tie-rific Confetti Cut three times and then stacked them together.   I die cut a tie from the Cheerful & Kind 6x6 paper pad and then die cut one from white cardstock.  









 I cut the pocket from the Fun Times 6x6 paper pad.   I layered up the dad, the tie and the pocket onto the Iced Aqua square.   I stamped a sentiment from Tie-rific onto the Big Stripes Cover panel.    I just love this color combo!    Perfect for a Father's Day card.     






Here is the link for the Color Throwdown Challenge.  There is still some time to play!    That is it for me.   Thank you for stopping by!

Reverse Confetti Leaping Lions

Happy Saturday!   I am playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge today.   I used my Chameleon pencils to color the images from Leaping Lions on Premier Polar White cardstock.  










To make my background, I used the Polka Panel as a stencil and used Versamark ink onto Iced Aqua cardstock and clear embossing powder.   I used the Edge Essentials with Salsa card stock to create a red trim around the main panel.   I added some details to the banner with my white Sakura gel pen.  





The sentiment was stamped on Midnight cardstock and then trimmed down the same size as the panel.    Here is the link for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.   I hope you have a wonderful day!   Thanks for stopping by!
