Reverse Confetti Stock Your Stash - Thank You!

Well hello there beautiful Confetti friends! Can you believe it's December already? I'm taking a break from holiday cards for a walk through the garden today! The colder temperatures have put an end to my flowers so I will have to make some of my own. 

A new challenge begins today at Reverse Confetti and this time we're looking for Thank you cards!  I'm playing along with this card because let's face it.. folks that do sweet and kind things for us are the most beautiful aren't they? 

I'm smitten with the Reverse Confetti Peony stamp set. The gorgeous bold bloom is easy to color and then cut with coordinating Confetti Cut dies. 

I colored this beauty with Copic Markers. Instead of blending I colored each petal in solid colors. The striped detail on the leaves is also kept in individual colors to provide more contrast. I love the clean look I achieved.

The background is a striped block background of papers from the Under The Umbrella 6" pad.   I chose this pad for the yellows and greens to coordinate with my blooms. I stamped the Sentimentally Yours greeting directly on the pattern paper inside a wreath I created from the foliage in the set. 

Make your own flower garden and have a beautiful day!

The 12 Kits of Occasions - Very Merry

It's the last day of the month and you know what that means right? It's time for The 12 Kits of Occasions! The 12 Kits of Occasions is a group of 12 friends who all love to paper craft. Every month we take turns making a kit for the rest of the group. We all receive the same kit with the same items. On the last day of the month we reveal what we each made with the kit. It's fun to see how we used the product in different ways. Sometimes the projects are similar and sometimes they are very different.

This month it's all about CHRISTMAS! Our hostess with the mostest is Lindsey Larson from Occasional Crafting blog! And boy what a wonderful kit she put together for us! We've got stamped images and die cuts from Concord & 9th, Neat and Tangled and Papertrey Ink. The papers and die cuts included lots of shiny metallics.

No tricks here... only treats. I ran out of papers - because lets face it.. I'm a stacker... so I added some of my own from Crate Paper (Snow and Cocoa). I made 7 cards!

Pretty Little Studio - All Good Things

Hi friends! I hope you're having a great day! The weather keeps getting chillier - it's my favorite time of year to spend indoors crafting. And when the wind is howling and rattling the house you'll find a cup of hot chocolate along side me to keep me warm while I make. My card today is made with the Pretty Little Studio Indian Summer Collection. 

I created a tabletop display using the plaid and baby blue print papers as a table cloth. The geometric fox print is my wall paper! What a fun kitchen right? The teapot and mug of hot chocolate are from the Happy Place die cut pack. 

The coffee to go cup is and acorn is from the Beautiful Colors pack. Whenever I walk the dog (Miss Moriko) I pocket little treasures I find, like acorns, fancy leaves and feathers and set them on the kitchen table when I get home. They motivate me to keep walking every day because they remind me of what I would have missed if I had stayed home. 

The leafy wreath makes a wonderful focal point for the teapot and a simple sentiment. A few sequins add some sparkle and shine - I chose Watermelon and Sunset to add more color and compliment the images. The store has lots of different colors and sizes to choose from. 

Stay warm and cozy my friends and enjoy every sip on this chilly fall day!
