Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Today I’m sharing a card for the occasion on which you need to say “Sorry”! The Lawn Fawn Life is Good stamp set is one I grab as soon as the sun is out! So many great images.
I stamped and colored the crabs with Copic markers, and then I cut them out with their corresponding die. The background was dry embossed with the Tim Holtz Waves folder. I used twine to finish it off.
Welcome! This month’s creative hop started on the Reverse Confetti blog, and you should have made it here from Lisa’s blog. It would be worth your while to start at the beginning of the hop, so you don’t miss a thing. We have tons of inspiration for you!
I’m sharing a gift/treat packaging idea for Father’s Day created with Reverse Confetti stamps and dies.
The packaging base was created with Tagged Tote Confetti Cuts to which I added clouds (Sun ‘n Clouds Confetti Cuts) and the airplane and propeller from Here We Go Confetti Cuts.
I added a tag die cut with the Folded Tag Confetti Cuts set. For the tag front, I stamped a sentiment from Fancy Word Coordinates repeatedly (first and second generation). I cut the stamping out at an angle and added the “DAD” stickers.

Today, I’m sharing a CAS card created with Reverse Confetti’s Peacock Pretties (one of the first Reverse Confetti sets!) and the recently released Stitched Flag Trio Confetti Cuts.
I stamped images from Peacock Pretties on colored cardstock with matching inks, to create tone-on-tone patterned papers. I used two of the Stitched Flag Trio Confetti Cuts dies to cut the banners from the cardstock. For the banner on the far left, I cut the paper on the backside so that the banner would point the other direction. The 4″ square white cardstock panel was stamped with the sentiment in Peacock Pretties. After adhering the banners, I attached the panel to a 4 1/4″ black cardstock base.
It’s time for another AEI♥U Challenge! The theme this month is Rainbow.
Here’s my take on the AEI♥U Challenge Rainbow Challenge:
I stamped the lanterns and sentiment with stamps in the Bunting set and cut the lanterns out with their coordinating Elle-ments dies. The strings and ribbons were also die cut with the Bunting Elle-ments set. For a little more color, I added stars cut with dies from the Finished Frames Elle-ments set.
There’s no limit to how you can interpret rainbow for this challenge!

I created a CAS Thank You card created with die cuts for the ColourQ #292 Challenge.
I cut the letters with the Lawn Cuts alphabet dies and placed them onto the colored squares, cut with one of the smaller square dies in a Spellbinders Nestabilities set. I cut the letters from all four of the colors and played around with combinations of letters and squares until choosing this one. The stitched rectangle was cut with a Lil’ Inker die.
