reverse confetti: january new release blog hop

Welcome crafty friends to a brand new Reverse Confetti release! I am thrilled to be joining Reverse Confetti in a blog hop to celebrate their brand new January release...filled with so many great stamps and dies for Valentine's Day and all year long! I made a clean and simple card using the brand new Large Circle of Hearts die. I cut it once from white card stock and layered the red hearts on top, and then cut another from gold glitter card stock to layer underneath. I added a sentiment from the new Big Heart Sentiments and layered in on top with foam adhesive. I placed the layered die cut onto a simple white background cut with the Brilliance Cover Panel.

reverse confetti: november release blog hop

Thrilled to be joining Reverse Confetti today to celebrate their November Release Blog Hop! All of these Reverse Confetti Products are available to buy now...

Today I have created a clean and simple card with a modern palette for the holidays. I love making cards like this with messages of Joy for my friends that do not celebrate Christmas. For this card, I used Distress Oxides in Tattered Rose and Black Soot to stamp the snowflakes from the Snowflake Season set and dried them with my heat tool. Then I stamped and embossed a few more snowflakes with gold embossing powder. To finish the panel, I splattered it with gold watercolor.

I cut out the Layered Joy die cut and adhered it together, and added it to my card with foam tape, then adhered the entire panel to my card with foam tape as well.

reverse confetti: september creative hop

Hi there crafty friends and welcome to the Reverse Confetti September Creative Hop. This month it's all about Fall, Halloween (and some Christmas too). Today I have created a card in a non-tradtional color palette that I have been seeing in a few shops for Halloween. Pink for Halloween? I say yes!

For my card, I used the All Lined Up cover panel and cut it from pink cardstock, I inlaid the stripes back into the panel in peach, black and white. I added the Layered Boo die cut from black glitter cardstock and a few images from the Boo Day set that I Copic colored and die cut. Super easy and super adorable, don't you think?

Thank you for stopping by. Be sure to stop at all the stops on the hop to see even more of the new release and tons of GORGEOUS inspiration by the Reverse Confetti team and friends!

reverse confetti: august mini release hop

Hi there crafty friends! Reverse Confetti is having a special surprise MINI RELEASE this month. It's just one stamp set and 2 Confetti Cuts die sets that you are going to love (well I know I do!). I am thrilled to be a part of a Blog Hop today celebrating their new release of these super fun products.

I have been working on a lot of work and crafty deadlines, so I went through my bin of inky panels to see if I had something that would help me to make a quick and easy card and I came across this one made with Distress Oxides. It doesn't look like much, but I was able to cut all the flowers for my card panel from it.

I used the Floral Chain cover plate for this card, it comes with the framed outline plate and all the dies to create the flowers and centers for the card.

Reverse Confetti also has this handy guide to show you how many flowers will need to be cut, and where they are all to be placed, which made it super easy for me to plan what part of my Distress Oxide panel I would cut:

I switched it up a bit and added some clear drops to my centers:

Here is the hop order. All the supplies I used are listed at the bottom of this post (by using my affiliate links, you help me to support this blog at no extra cost to you):

Hello there crafty friends and thank you for joining us for another month of Get Cracking on Christmas. This fun challenge was started by my friend Jenn Shurkus as a way to work on your Christmas cards all year long. I love to work on some special cards for certain people throughout the year. I always love a good rainbow Christmas card...you can see some others I have made over the years here, here, here, and even here!

I have something really special for your this month, we are celebrating Christmas in July with giveaways! I wanted to give something that everyone worldwide could enter to win.

All you need to do is leave a comment on this post and you will be entered to win. I will select a winner on Monday, July 19th and update this post :)
Simon Says STAMP!

For this card, I wanted to use the Reverse Confetti Wreath of Joy die. I have wanted it for a while, and finally just added it to my cart in my last Simon order. It is so cute and there are so many possibilities with it. To create my card, I ink blended a panel of Distress Watercolor Cardstock with my favorite rainbow of Distress Inks: Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers, and Wilted Violet. I misted the panel with some water and blotted off the droplets then misted it generously with Tsukineko Sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz which really makes the color pop! I cut the die, letters and leaves and arranged the word Joy. I gently folded each leaf shape in half to give it some dimension and adhered it with a Lawn Fawn glue tube. I added a couple of red Studio Katia Lipstick Red Crystals to the wreath to look like "berries'.

reverse confetti: july 2021 creative hop

Hello there crafty friends and welcome to the Reverse Confetti July Creative Hop. You should have arrived here from the blog of the amazing Ali Farmer.

I am thrilled to join Reverse Confetti to celebrate their new release which is available to purchase right now! Today I have a simple Mixed Media Style card for you using the new Circle of Waves die along with a sentiment from the Oceans of Love stamp set.

To create this card was super easy. I had a panel of Distress Watercolor Cardstock which I sprayed with DIstress Spray Stains in Mermaid Lagoon, Twisted Citron, Peacock Feathers and Salty Ocean. When my panel was dry, I cut it using the circle of waves dies. I inked the edges of all the pieces with Frayed Burlap Distress Ink and adhered it using foam tape to a 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 square panel of white cardstock. I added some splatter using Dina Wakley Gloss Sprays in White and Night. Once the splatter was dried, I added the sentiment from the Oceans of Love set (white embossed on black cardstock). To finish my card, I added a few teeny tiny hearts that I cut with the Love is in the Air coordinating. That's it! Super easy and simple and I love the look...

Your next stop on the hop is the always delightful Dilay Nacar...I am sure she has something wonderful for you!

reverse confetti: may new release blog hop

Hi there crafty friends! I am so excited to join my friends at Reverse Confetti for their May new release hop! See the fully list of hop participants at the bottom of this post. All the new products are AVAILABLE NOW! It's a fabulous release, filled with six new stamp sets, and 9 new confetti cuts.

There is so much cuteness and celebration to be had in this release and today I have a card for you using the new Punny Party set. I used the adorable kitty image and the "It's Sherbert Day" sentiment and created my card in a palette of sherbet colors...

To create my background, I used the Along the Dotted Lines Cover and used the wide side of a Copic marker to create wonky sherbert colored stripes next to each dotted line. I stamped and colored the image from the Punny Party set and cut it from the coordinating dies and embossed my sentiment in white onto black cardstock. I layered the image onto 2 of the Circle Rays Duo die cuts and added a few clear droplets to finish my card.

reverse confetti: march new release blog hop

Hi there crafty friends. I am thrilled to be joining my friends at Reverse Confetti today in a Blog Hop to celebrate their newest release…all of these products are available to purchase now! There are so many cute things for Spring including eggs, bunnies, beautiful flowers and fabulous new cover plates. I have created 3 different cards for you today using some of these new stamps. Be sure to hop along to all the stops on the hop (see full list at the bottom of this post) to see all the inspiration and ideas with these new stamps!

The first card I made with the new Adorned Egg stamps and dies. I stamped and colored the egg in the prettiest of pastels, colored the flowers in coordinating colors and added a sparkly bow to the top. This stamp is so fun to color and makes a perfect easter greeting for anyone. For the sentiment I stamped Easter Greetings directly onto the Along the Dotted Lines Cover Panel.

For my second card, I used the Lily of the Valley stamps and dies to create a soft pink sympathy card. I used some Bazzil Pale Rose Cardstock with the Along the Dotted Lines cover die and cut it to fit on the front of a white notecard. I trimmed it to leave enough room the fit the sentiment underneath it and added a tiny bit of metallic paper. I stamped and embossed the sentiment in gold, then I stamped the flowers in black and colored them in with Copics. To finish the card, I added just a few Metaillic Droplets .

The third card used the adorable Hop Into Spring stamps and dies...it has so many cute little bunnies! This time, I cut the Along the Dotted Lines cover out of two colors of cardstock and cut them to make grass and a sky. I stamped my sentiment directly onto the blue panel, and then added my colored stamped and die cut images on the card...how cute is that tiny little bee? For a finishing touch, I gave the bee a little flight pattern by drawing dashes with a micron pen.

I hope you enjoyed these cards, please see the full list of stops on the hop and be sure to hop along to see all the inspiration that has been created with this fun new release!

reverse confetti: january new release blog hop

Hi there crafty friends! I am thrilled to be joining Reverse Confetti today as part of their January Release Blog Hop! All of the products in this new release are available NOW...there is so much cuteness, beautiful flowers and awesome sentiment stamps in this release.

Today I have created 2 cards for you and can't wait to share some more makes really soon with these stamps...please be sure you are following me on Instagram where I post all of my card creations :)

For the first card, I stamped words from the Words of Love stamp set to make a pattern on part of my card front in Wilted Violet, Spiced Marmalade and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxides.

I added an adorable image from the Love is in the air set and colored it in with similar colors of copic markers. To put the card together, I added some coordinating color die cuts of the hearts from the Big Love die. Finally, I stamped and embossed a sentiment from the Words of Love set on black card stock with white embossing powder.

For my second card, I used a similar technique. This time I stamped the sentiment over and over in a rainbow of colors using a sentiment from the Words of Love Set and used the Big Love die as my focal point with a bright pink heart.

Here is a list of ALL the stops on the hop for even more inspiration! I hope you will visit these crafty gals and show them some love on their amazing creations:

reverse confetti: december creative hop

Hi there crafty friends! I am glad to be joining Reverse Confetti as a 'Fetti Friend in their December blog hop. You should have arrived here from the blog of the amazing Maria Willis...

I have created a card using the Home For the Holidays stamps and dies and a sentiment from the Seasonal Says It All. This card was inspired by a card I saw at Target, but I can not find a link to it anywhere to share with you!

To create this card, I stamped and embossed the houses in white onto light blue cardstock, and then stamped the tree onto white cardstock. I stamped and embossed the sentiment from Seasonal Says It All in gold onto my card then began building my scene. I drew some snow on the the bottom of the card using a white gel pen. Then I took out my Gelly Roll moonlight pens and started doodling on the houses, coloring the doors and windows and adding a few details here and there. I adhered the houses and the tree with foam tape. Then I used a white Posca paint marker to make 'snow' by adding dots of different sizes.
