MoJo Monday....It's BACK!

Real quick, because I am excited. Did you hear??? The Mojo Monday sketch challenge is back. I was thrilled when Julie announced she was going to give a go again.  I don't know about you, but I am a Monday and Tuesday crafter. Those are my two full days with no kiddos and no work outside the house, typically. I used to LOVE the Mojo Monday sketches as a great start to my weekly crafty time. Julie says it may not be every week, but crossing my fingers for at least every other week?? I love a great sketch challenge. 

Once I saw the post,  I got busy and created this card with the sketch. I pulled out some of my Reverse Confetti products and made a sweet friendship card to add to my stash. I started with the  Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cut and the Abundant Autumn paper to create the focal point for my sentiment. I love the mix of fonts in The Most Beauty stamp set. 

I used the Wonky Stripe Panel cut in Sand card stock and then added the sweet little bear from Honey Bear set. At the last minute I decided to give him a little wood veneer heart to hold. I sponged on some RC Aqua ink to pull in another element of color. 

 here's the sketch...it's over on Julie's Blog. 

Thanks for stopping by! 

Mojo Monday 467-Hello

Hello stampy friends! Super quick post tonight. I got crafty yesterday and joined in on the Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge. It has been so long since I have played along. I kept this one  super simple and used more of the September Release products from Reverse Confetti. The Wheat Confetti Cut is so cooland I had it take enter stage here, today. I used the Lotsa Dots Stencil in the background with some Kraft ink. 

I cut out a scallop frame with the Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cut and added the "hello" die cut word from Fancy Word Confetti Cuts in Lime Green card stock. 

Here is the Mojo Monday sketch 467. 

Thanks for stopping by. 

More Reverse Confetti pretties coming tomorrow with the Color Throwdown Challenge. 

Color Throwdown 388-rain or shine

There is a new challenge up over on the Color Throwdown Blog. Pretty Spring colors-yellow, blue, green, and white and an inspiration photo to get you started.

Remember we’re using generic colors and you can add whatever other neutrals you choose.  It’s all about having fun, right?

If you upload to a public gallery, please use the keyword CTD388, and please use #ctd388 and #colorthrowdown on social media sites.  Also when playing along please be sure to use a direct link to your creation/blog post and not a generic link to your blog. .

 I loved those polka dotted rain boots from the photo. They made me think of this great Weather it Together set from Reverse Confetti.

We have had so much rain lately I decided to color up the umbrella from the set. A green umbrella would make me happy.  I also stamped the sentiment onto a yellow polka dotted piece of paper I cut with the Flowers For Mom pierced circle. I used the Mojo Monday Sketch 443, from this week, too, so I added in one of the Stitched Flag Trio Confetti cuts, the clouds and hearts from Weather It Together Confetti Cuts. It's all layered up on the inner rectangle from Gift Card Holder Tag Confetti Cut. 

For more inspiration, check out the other design team members' creations below, and get inky! And don't forget to join us over on the CTD Blog. We can't wait to see what you create with these new colors.

National Coffee Day-Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop

Hello coffee drinking fans AND all paper crafters! I'm joining in on the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog hop and it only seemed appropriate to jump in on National Coffee Day! 

Reverse Confetti is one of the many amazing sponsors for this hop, so I couldn't help my self and had to use the recently released For the Love of Latte  and Caffeinated Cups stamps on my card today. I stamped my latte cup and then used the Caffeinated Cups Confetti Cuts to cut it out. I added a touch of texture to my sleeve by running it through my crimper. 

I used the Mojo Monday Sketch for my card layout and was also inspired by the colors from last week's Color Throwdown Challenge (Yep, missed the link up on this one, but I'm ok with that). My black panel was cut from the Woodgrain Confetti Cut. I stamped my sentiment on the circle from Fresh 'n Fruity and then layered that up with the small scalloped circle from Circles 'n Scallops. I couldn't help but tuck in some Leafy dies.  

Thanks so much for checking out my card. 

Be sure to head over to the Fall Coffee Lovers Blog Hop for all the details. 

You Mean the World to Me

Phew...what a whirl wind couple of weeks with amazing new products from the companies I love. Don't get me wrong....I'm not complaing. I truly enjoy designing for the teams I do and know I am blessed and lucky to be a part of them. It was time take a breather though and create something, just because. 

 I pulled out some Reverse Confetti stamps and dies and got busy with this week's Mojo Monday sketch. I love tall & skinny. My card measures 3.75 x 5.5. 

I used a sentiment from My World and stamped it in grey ink onto a Weather or Dot (& Stripes) Quick card Panel. These cards are awesome and really do make for some simple card designs. Remember they are limited edition and once they sell out....they are gone. 

Following the sketch, I cut a small circle from Circles 'n scallops and added the "xoxo" die cut (layered up 3 of them for added dimension) from Fancy Word Confetti Cuts. I also tucked in a tiny heart from Love Note. Gosh, I love that die set. 

Thanks for stopping by today. I'll see you back here soon. 

You're So Cool!

Summer and Ice Cream, two of my favorite things. I am linking up to the Color Throwdown and Mojo Monday Sketch with this card using some super sweet and yummy Reverse Confetti Products.

As soon as I saw the colors for the challenge I was thinking summer and so I reached for the Love and Ice Cream stamp set and matching Confetti Cut dies. I also spied the awesome Let's Celebrate Quick Card Panel with the orange dots. It was a great accent to my background. The Sentiment is from Let's Chill. 

Here is a close up of my cone. I used two different tones of turquoise-Blu Raspberry and Sno Cone. The sweet little heart confetti from Donut You Know were the perfect finishing touch to my ice cream cone. 

Here is the Color Throwdown color board. 

and the Mojo Monday Sketch.

I have been busy working on new release stuff for RC. Be sure to join us on the 5th when we kick off our Countdown to Confetti!
