I have to tell you that Blooms 'N Buds really intimidated me...to the point that I waited to use it until now on my September Sketch For You To Try design. I just couldn't decide on color combinations, and then I saw all the other gals making these uber-fantastic cards and projects with it which gave me total stage fright, so I got on Pinterest, searched for unusual Fall color combos and came up with this. Sorry for the novel, but I just want to make the point that you shouldn't let fear get in your way - even in the silliest of situations! Once I stamped and die cut my Buds 'N Blooms, I knew I wanted them to really pop against the rest of the sketch layers, so I kept the rest of the layers uniform in white and vellum. I did sneak in a bit of texture though with a Lacy Scallop Frame Confetti Cuts and Leaves Cover Panel Confetti Cuts - they were just meant for each other! I sure hope you'll get a chance to play along with this month's SFYTT challenge.Visit the Reverse Confetti blog for all the challenge details - did you know you can win a gift certificate to RC and become the next 'Fetti Fave?

Hello! The Reverse Confetti DT has teamed up today with Jennifer McGuire to have a blog hop in honor of our fearless leader, Jen ...
A friend of mine from church recently gave me a couple of beautiful tins of coloured pencils, and I made this Thanks card for her. I'd bought Reverse Confetti's 'Blooms 'n Buds' stamp set ages ago, but the matching dies have been out of stock till just recently. I bought a set this week, and so yesterday die cut and stamped loads of flowers. I thought Karen Burniston's Spinner Square Pop-up die set would showcase the flowers nicely. After using tape runner to put patterned paper panels inside the card, I used a square die from the set to cut a window in the front of the card. I put a large square on the pop-up part of the card, and decorated this with a sentiment and flowers. You can see a bit better in the photo below some of the flower layers. I attached one flower to the back of the card, then some more to the spinning arm, which moves when the card opens/closes. I made a patterned paper frame for the front of the card, and added more flowers. The sentiment is from Paper Smooches' 'Sentiment Sampler' stamp set, and the little scalloped square die comes with the Spinner Square Pop-up set. All the inks are from Stampin' Up. I used my rather rubbish, one-handed videoing skills to show you how the card moves! Links to some of the products used:

Good afternoon. Today sees the start of a new sketch challenge over at STAMPlorations. After the hectic stencil bloghop it's back to regular business. This is the card I would like to share today using the new sketch. It also uses some of the new stamp sets from the incredibly talented Dee, from Dee's Art Utopia. This set is called Blooming Buds and I was so excited to find it in my letterbox last week and couldn't wait to play with it. I started by stamping two of the flower heads and leaf cluster on a panel of card, which I coloured with Copics. I then stamped the large flower head, bud and large leaf on a scrap of card and then coloured and fussy cut them. The Happy Birthday was stamped on a thin strip of scrap card. I cut down an A6 (UK) piece of card and put a thin strip of dark pink card down two inner edges. The panels were then mounted over the stamped panel allowing it to peep through. I assembled the fussy cut pieces then attached them over the recessed stamped panel. OK, now it's over to you. Pop over to see what the rest of the DT and our fab GDs have made for more inspiration.

Happy Memorial Day Weekend to you all! I hope that you have a wonderful weekend. I am sharing some cards that I made last weekend using the Reverse Confetti Blooms N' Buds stamp set. I created a couple of cards stamping the flower images in Versamark and then clear heat embossing the stamped images. For the first panel, I ink blended some RC Stone ink on the panel over the embossed images. You get a soft background that looks so pretty! I gold embossed the Thanks from the Hello & Thanks Label Confetti Cuts set and paired it with the Wreath die. For this next card, I did the same clear embossing of the stamped images onto some watercolor card stock and then water colored with Spun Sugar Distress Ink. The sentiment is from One Day at a Time stamp set and it was heat embossed with Ranger Liquid Platinum embossing powder on a Lacy Scalloped Circle Confetti Cut. Don't forget that the One Day at a Time Stamp set will donate to the Pink Fund. Read more about it here. And the stamp set is now back in stock at Reverse Confetti! Thanks for stopping by! I hope you have a great weekend!
Scientific illustrator and artist Noel Badges Pugh has an incredible knack for drawing flora and fauna. He recently illustrated an entire field guide about bees and keeps a regular Tumblr, Art in Progress & Completion, where he posts these tantalizing drawings of buds and blooms. Maybe it’s because this is the coldest winter in 30 years, but I’m spending the rest of my day looking at these. (via Gaks) More
