Hello there crafty friends! Today I am playing along with this month's Stock Your Stash Challenge from Reverse Confetti and the theme is Moms, Dads and Grads.

If you are making any of these type of cards with your Reverse Confetti products, I hope you will link up to the challenge for a chance to win a $20 gift certificate. See the challenge post here. Anyone has a chance to win!
Today I decided to create a Mother's Day card using the Layered Mom with Frame Confetti Cuts along with the Sending Smiles stamps to make a bright daisy card. I finished it with a sentiment from the OMG sentiment set. This may not be the Mother's Day sentiment for every mom, but I know my mom will appreciate it :) She really is freaking amazing!

Keeping with my blog hop tradition, I have created three different looks for you featuring a bunch on new products, and all of them feature the Lines Background, designed by my crafty pal Miriam Prantner.
For the first card, I used the Lined Background and embossed it using Hero Arts White Satin Pearl embossing powder. Then I added some of the brand new Eucalyptus Stem Foil Plate and Dies which I foiled in gold and colored in with Copic Markers. I added a bit of gold splatter using Tim Holtz Distress Foundry Wax mixed with alcohol and a splatter brush. I finished the card with a sentiment from the XL Spring Greetings set that was embossed in gold.
For my second card, I went all out with the Lined Background and colored each line with my Karin markers, spritzed the colored stamp with a Distress Sprayer and then stamped it onto Distress Watercolor cardstock. I cut the panel using the Wonky Rectangles dies . To finish the card, I used a sentiment from the new Time to Party set, don't you just love that font? And I added three little embellishments made from the hat toppers in the Time to Party set to make it pop, I cut them from black card stock and went over them with a Wink of Stella pen.
I hope you enjoyed the three different looks for this new Lined Background stamp. Let me know which one is your favorite! The next stop on the hop is the amazing Yoonsun Hur!

Welcome to the Reverse Confetti April Creative Hop! You should have arrived here from the Reverse Confetti blog...Today I have a fun card for you using the Stitched Daisies Cover panel Confetti Cuts. I cut the panel from Distress Watercolor Cardstock, then I used my small Simon Says Stamp Blending Brushes along with a rainbow selection of Mini Distress Inks to blend a little circle of ink on top of each of the daises.
Next, I spritzed the panel lightly with water to make the inks move and give the panel a more artsy look. I dried the panel with a heat tool, then I added the Celebrate cut from the Celebrate Tag Confetti Cuts that I cut from black and white cardstocks. I also adhered a little sequin to the center of each daisy shape for some sparkle and shine.
The next stop on the hop is the incredible Audrey Tokach, be sure to head on over and see what she has created for you! I can't wait to hop around and see what everyone has made.
Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for playing along with us last week in the Feminine challenge and we hope you will join us again this week too :) This week our challenge is Bright and Cheerful and I have made a quick and easy card with watercoloring and Distress Reinkers using one of my favorite new stamp sets from Reverse Confetti...Friendly Florals.
This card was so easy to create! Just stamp the florals on either corner of your card in waterproof ink, I used Distress Archival in Black Soot and then stamp the sentiment as well in the same ink. I loosely colored the florals by dropping dots of Distress Ink Reinkers onto my Tim Holtz Glass Media Mat and picking them up with a Detailer Waterbrush. When the panel was dry (you could use a heat tool) I splattered the card with a little Black Soot Distress Paint.

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for playing along with us last week in the Use Some Green challenge and we hope you will join us again this week too :)
This week our challenge is FEMININE and I thought this lovely young lady from the Paper Dolls Portraits would be the perfect addition to my card. For the backrgound, I used the Sizzix Arched Embossing Folder and ran my Distress Watercolor Cardstock through it. Then I used some of the new Gilded Tim Holtz Foundry Wax and went over the high points of the embossing, then set the wax with my embossing gun. Once the Foundry Wax was set, I spritzed the panel lightly with water using my Distress Sprayer and used my Distress Inks and a Detailer Waterbrush to paint in the sections of the folder so it resembled stained glass.

Hello creative friends! I have another make with the newest Tim Holtz Distress Color, Saltwater Taffy. This one seemed to be a favorite, and was super easy to make, although it would be impossible to recreate in the same exact way. I think my next approach to this technique will involve painting several panels like this at once.
To create this card, I cut a panel of of Distress White Heavystock and painted over it with Saltwater Taffy Distress paint. Then I dried with a heat tool. If you have not used this paint before, you should know that once your dry it with your heat tool, it is permanent and will not re-react with water or other paint colors. Then I added some more layers to the paint. First I added my warm colors (Mustard Seed, Fired Brick) and painted them on loosely with my paint brush in different areas. If there was an area of too much color, I gave it a little spray with water using my Distress Sprayer. Once that layer was dried with my heat tool, then I added a layer of cool colors (Evergreen Bough, Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio, Seedless Preserves). You can keep building alternating layers until you get a result you like.
Once the panel was completely dry, I cut the Bold Text 1 Make a WIsh sentiment out and then put the letters back in and placed some tape across the back to hold them in. For me, this was the easiest way to add the white letters. I cut the Bold Text 1 sentiment out of white cardstock, and simply adhered them to the outline I had already cut. That's it, super fun to create and simple!

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for playing along with us last week in the Use At Least One Stencil challenge and we hope you will join us again this week too :)
This week our challenge is Add Some Green, and the design team is using products from AALL & Create. I have created a fun collaged square card using the AALL & Create Lotza Crossez stencil on my background and a ton of brand new Tim Holtz Idea-ology on a background of green. I started by spraying Distress Spray Stains in Cracked Pistachio, Lucky Clover and Mowed Lawn for a vibrant green background. Once the panel was dry, I went over it with white ink and the AALL & Create Lotza Crossez stencil.
