Countdown to Confetti: Circle Sentiments & God is Good

Hey, 'Fetti Fans, welcome to Day 2 of the May Release for Reverse Confetti! 

This is such a fabulous release, with five new stamp sets and six new Confetti Cuts!

Lots of sweet goodness coming this month!

Today, we are introducing two new sets: 

a fun sentiment with coordinating Confetti Cuts called Circle Sentiments

and a beautiful sentiment set called God is Good.

First up, I'm sharing some tags that I made using Circle Sentiments.

Now, if you visit my blog regularly, you probably know that I love making Butter Crunch

to my kids' teachers to show my appreciation for them.

Well, for Austin's parent-teacher conferences, I whipped up a couple of batches

and used the new Circle Sentiments stamp set for the tags.

For each tag (which I diecut using the largest scalloped 

circle from Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cuts), I used the circle stamp 

from Circle Sentiments, as well as the the "thanks that was awesome" stamp.

Since I wanted to let the teachers know that they were awesome,

I cut apart my stamp (I know! Gasp!) and then used the "you're" stamp

from the Fancy Words stamp that was released last month.

For each tag, I did some ombre inking with two colours.

On this one, I used tropical teal and aqua mist.

Orange zest and summer sunrise.

Pure poppy and orange zest.

And one of Austin's teachers is gluten-free as well as sugar free,

so after much deliberation, I decided to give him a pineapple

(it felt like a "Psych" thing to do.)

He loved it! 

He said it was the best teacher gift he'd ever gotten. :)

On his tag, I inked it in hawaiian shores & limeade ice.

I also have a card to share using the Circle Sentiments stamp set

& the coordinating Scalloped Circle Confetti Cuts.

I love the shape of the circle from Circle Sentiments and thought it would

be perfect to stamp repeatedly for a masculine card.

I stamped my circles in summer sunrise & hawaiian shores directly onto my card base.

Then, for my sentiment, I stamped that circle onto the coordinating 

Scalloped Circle Confetti Cut and stamped the sentiment in summer sunrise.

A few enamel dots finish if off.

I also have some projects to share using the new God is Good stamp set.

 I love this stamp set! 

The fonts are fabulous and it's especially perfect for the cards that I make 

for the visitation committee at my church!

When I was purging my supplies, I happened upon some Heidi Swapp embellishments

that I thought would be perfect to go with the God is Good stamp set.

Isn't this sentiment beautiful?

I stamped it in versafine onyx black on the rustic white cardstock

and trimmed off the edges where the butterflies overlapped.

For my next card, I stamped one of the God is Good sentiments onto

white cardstock and heat embossed it in white.

Then, I did the same using a star stamp from So Many Stars.

I inked up my background using some harvest gold ink at the bottom,

then some blueberry sky ink and finally, some enchanted evening at the top.

For my last project today, I have a layout to share that I made using some photos

I took of Sage last June.

I kept my layout simple and am really happy with how it turned out!

I realized why I had a relatively easy time purging the embellishments from my craft area:

I really enjoy making my own!

For my background, I used some Bazzill CS White cardstock.

Over this, I layered a piece of Webster's patterned paper.

I diecut some of the CS White cardstock using 

the journaling card die from Documented Confetti Cuts.

On this, I stamped the sentiment from God is Good and heat embossed it in gold.

Then, for fun, I added some star garlands that I diecut from Bazzill Basics Gold Foil

using another new Confetti Cut that's being released this month: Star Garland.

There are five garland diecuts that I added along the bottom of the layout.

  

 That's it for today!
