Ahoy!

Hi everyone!  I have a fun shaker card to share today.  This is also my last day my guesting at Eyelet Outlet and Brads and I used 2 brads can you spot them?
Head on over to their blog to see my final guest post and if you leave a comment over there 1 lucky commenter will win a prize!
 Well, if in case you haven't spotted them, the brads are the anchors!  Aren't they adorable?!?  I used my much loved circle dies to create the little frame of my shaker part and the Font One Lowercase die set for the sentiment.  This font die set is really versitile, not too fancy, not too plain.
The adorable light house is from a Reverse Confetti stamp set, colored with Copics and filled with a variety of sequins and white beads.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!  Sorry, no close up picture today, I accidentally deleted it -oops!

With Love card

Hi everyone!  Today's card has lots of sparkle and the new stamp set from Reverse Confetti, Love Blooms.  I fell in love with that set and bought the first day it was available!  I will admit I futzed and fiddled with this card for a couple days.  I'm still not sure I love it, but I do like parts of it, so here it is!
 
 I cut off the diagonal strips of the Diagonal Chevron die cut and kept the frame and chevron bottom.  I like that you can get a completely different look by doing that.  Then I inserted some die cut pieces of gold and diamond glitter cardstock into the bottom portion.
I stamped and fussy cut out the flowers and adhered them to glitter circles.  The little accent hearts are from the Flutter Love die set.

Here's the Diagonal Chevron card front die:

Thanks a Latte

Hi everyone!  I have a fun coffee card that uses some circle dies along with a companion die - the Lacey circles.  I wanted to frame this adorable latte cup with some layers and bling.
 I added a couple subtle touches of gold with the gold foil washi tape and metallic string.  I love how that simple small circles make the perfect embellishment cluster for the little rose.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!  Here is a close up picture.

Reverse Confetti Release day

Hi everyone!!  Today is REVERSE CONFETTI’S VERY FIRST Release Day! To get things started, we invite YOU to hop along with the Confetti Crew and a few other talented stampers that are helping to launch this fabulous new stamp company!

The hop started over on the Reverse Confetti blog, and you should have made it here from Tiffany’s blog. If not, it would be worth your while to start at the beginning of the hop so you don’t miss a thing. There are tons of inspiration for you to see using Reverse Confetti’s first 4 brand new stamp sets!

I am showcasing the set Happy Harbor which is available NOW!
I thought the paper from Fancy Pants, Trendsetter would be perfect with this nautical theme stamp set.  I let the stamps shine with only a few sequins as accents.
The next stop on the hop is Joscelyn’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.

Reverse Confetti: Happy Harbor sneak peek

Hi everyone!!  I so am excited to be a part of the Reverse Confetti sneak peeks!  My friend, Jen Del Muro has started a new stamp company called Reverse Confetti and today we are peeking her very first set Happy Harbor.  It's a darling harbor/sailing themed set.  All the sets will be available to purchase on Wednesday the 8th!!

I fell in love with this little whale and just had to get him inky!  I used some new Kate & Co. papers from My Mind's Eye and some darling mini rope (which I glued down with Glossy Accents).  This one came together pretty fast.
