What do you think? Awesome, huh? I combined one of my go-to Confetti Cuts, Circles 'n Scallops with the Round About stamps and Envie Wrap for this birthday greeting and love the way it turned out. Looks like I have more favorites! :)

Reverse Confetti's SFYTT

For my card I used the Label Me set and framed it with the Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cuts. I love these sets because they can be used over and over and they are so versatile. And the font....pure RC!

Birthday Wishes

I'm at it again...creating with Pebbles' Birthday Wishes collection. Over on the Pebbles' blog this week I have a card creation made using just two products in the line. 

So if you want an entire collection, but the budget doesn't allow for that...check out my post, here.

Birthday Wishes

Did you have a chance to participate in Reverse Confetti's blog hop on Sunday? I enjoyed reading everyone's comments who stopped by and I always enjoy creating Reverse Confetti projects for you like this Happy Birthday card.

SEI January Cardmaking Kit

Anytime is birthday time! There's always a birthday celebration going on and SEI's January Cardmaking Kit has everything you need for cards, gifts and party decor projects! I love this kit with all its colorful and festive patterned papers so I created a card design that uses all of them! 

I just cut thin strips of the patterned papers included in the kit and added notches at both ends to make them double ended banners. Cut them at different lengths for variety and attach to your card base with foam adhesive for dimension. Now top with an accent...I used the Birthday Wishes sentiment. 

While a birthday card is awesome to receive, a little extra something to go with it makes it more fun, don't you think? 

I decorated a little die cut box with accents from the January kit. It's so easy since everything coordinates perfectly! I picked the 'Happy Birthday' sentiment since it's also a double ended banner to match the card. Fill your little box with candies, a small gift like earrings or use a bit bigger box for a gift card. The possibilities are endless! Hope you enjoy this month's kit.

For more birthday inspiration I have another project posted on the SEI blog today.

Here's a peek for you...hope you have a few moments to go have a look.

Have a great day! :)

Back to the Basics

T.G.I.F!

Paper crafting with Pebbles has reached a new level of fun with the addition of Basics...patterned papers and accents in a rainbow of colors to match their collections perfectly! Ooh la la!

I created this card and mini treat bag with the Basics collection. How about these bright colors? And how about the Rhinestone Flowers? Swoon! Did you notice the washi? Yep, Pebbles is offering beautiful Basics tapes!
