'Tis the Season - Reverse Confetti SFYTT

Hey there, 'Fetti Fans!

There's still time to play along with the December Sketch For You To Try at Reverse Confetti!

I'm also linking my card up to the Merry Monday #139!

Seasonal Sentiments 

Fresh 'n Fruity Confetti Cuts

Tag Me Confetti Cuts

Tag Me Too Confetti Cuts

I created a Christmas flower using the lemon/lime shapes of Fresh 'n Fruity Confetti Cuts, cutting from some fun patterned papers.  The flower center is the hole reinforcer from Tag Me Too Confetti Cuts with an additional enamel dot.  The Seasonal Sentiments stamped tag was cut from the Tag Me Confetti Cuts and a few enamel dots were added to and fro to finish off the card.

Stop in at the Reverse Confetti Blog to see what the other gals of the Confetti Crew have created for you today!

Thanks so much for stopping by the stage!

November Diva Dare - Verve Stamps

"Shape Up", November Diva Dare

Hey, Verve fans!  Have you seen the November Diva Dare - Shape Up?!  All you have to do is create a project with a common shape and some Verve product, of course link up HERE!

Check out ALL the shapes I packed into my card!  Some fabulous Verve Stamps, A Cut Above by Verve Dies and a few fabulous patterned papers are all you need to get your card in "shipSHAPE!"  

I was also inspired by this fabulous sketch, DS128 at The Deconstructed Sketch and Merry Monday #84!

After layering a few Webster's Pages It's Christmas papers, the "Merry Christmas" sentiment and red snowflake image are from the Holiday Treats stamp set were inked up with Momento Luxe Love Letter.  The sentiment was stamped in red and die cut with the Tagged Rectangle Die, while the snowflake was also stamped in red and die cut using the Frosty Snowflakes Die Set.  To finish up the card, I added some Hemptique Green Hemp Cord and a sprinkling of the Metal Mix Sequins and Pastel Sequin Mix.
