RC Sneak Peek Day 2 - Thankful for You

Hello! It's the second day of Reverse Confetti September sneak peeks, and today I'm sharing a card created using the new Autumn Blessings stamp set, the Leaf Lattice Cover Panel Confetti Cuts and Fa La La Circle Confetti Cuts dies, and my newest 6x6 patterned paper pad, Every Little Bit. :)

To create my card, I started by first creating a Cloud White card base and topping it with a piece of gray polka dot patterned paper from the Every Little Bit paper pad.  I then die cut a piece of Cloud White cardstock using the Leaf Lattice Cover Panel Confetti Cuts and adhered it to the card front.  Next, I stamped the outline floral image from Autumn Blessings in Versamark ink onto yellow cardstock, and heat set it with white embossing powder before die cutting it using the Fa La La Circle Confetti Cuts. 

The circle die cut was then adhered to the card front with foam tape.  One of the sentiments from Autumn Blessings was stamped in Versamark ink onto Iced Aqua cardstock, heat set with white embossing powder, then adhered to the card base.  To finish up, I embellished with black enamel dots.

RC Sneak Peek Day 1 - Sending Monster Hugs

Hello! It's the first day of Reverse Confetti September sneak peeks, and today I'm sharing a card created using the new Monsterous stamp set, the Boo to You Circle Confetti Cuts and Wonky Stripe Panel Confetti Cuts dies, and my newest 6x6 patterned paper pad, Every Little Bit. :)

To create my card, I started by first creating a Stone card base and adhering a small strip of striped patterned paper from the Warm Hearts paper pad.  I then die cut a piece of Cloud White cardstock using the Wonky Stripe Panel Confetti Cuts and backed it with one of the patterns from the Every Little Bit paper pad.  Next, I stamped one of the monsters from Monsterous in Versafine black ink onto watercolor paper, and heat set it with clear embossing powder before coloring it with Zig Clean Color markers.  

While the image was drying, I then die cut the large scalloped circle using Lime Green cardstock, the white circle using Cloud White cardstock, and the Boo to You Confetti Cuts.  The two die cuts were adhered together, and then the sentiment from Monsterous was stamped in black ink.  Once the monster image was dry, it was die cut using the Monsterous Confetti Cuts dies.  To finish up, the polka dot panel was adhered to the card base, the scalloped circle was adhered with foam tape & I embellished with purple enamel dots.

Hello! I don't know about you, but I love a great sale! :) This weekend our fearless leader, Jen del Muro, is celebrating her birthday with a 20% off sale over at Reverse Confetti... It's a great time to stock up on card stocks, inks, stamps, you name it. :)

I'm also posting a card today that features some of the goodies from the latest release.  I love these ginormous strawberries, they are absolutely darling! To create my card, I started with a Cloud White card base and topped it with a piece of patterned paper from the Under the Umbrella paper pad.  I then die cut a piece of Iced Aqua card stock using the Thanks Square Confetti Cuts and adhered it to the card base.

Next, I stamped two strawberries from Berry Sweet using Versamark and Black ink onto Lime Green and Salsa card stocks, and cut them out using the coordinating Berry Sweet Confetti Cuts. One of the sentiments from Berry Sweet was stamped in black ink onto a strip of white card stock, and trimmed into a flag shape.  To finish up, the berries and sentiment were secured to the card front, and I embellished with green enamel dots.

Have a great one!

RC Blog Hop - Hello

Hello! It's the 8th of the month, which means it's Reverse Confetti blog hop time, and this month we're creating cards using "Color Me Mine" as our theme. All the cards you'll see along the hop today will be created with using our favorite color combos.   I can't wait to pop through the list and see what the other ladies on the DT have come up with today. :) One of my favorite color combos is black, navy, aqua and gray, and Reverse Confetti's Midnight Black, Navy, Iced Aqua and Stone cardstocks and ink work perfectly together!

To create my card, I started by first cutting a Stone card base and adhering a piece of patterned paper from the Every Little Bit paper pad to the top.  I then used the Hello Square Confetti Cuts on Stone and Iced Aqua cardstock, and adhered the gray die cut to the card front before filling in the base with the aqua strips.

I then stamped the flower and leaf images from Blooms 'n Buds in gray and black ink, and cut them out with the coordinating Blooms 'n Buds Confetti Cuts.  Next, I used the Wheat Confetti Cuts on Iced Aqua cardstock, and adhered it behind the flower and leaf die cuts.  The arrangement was then adhered to the card front with foam tape.  To finish up, I embellished with black enamel dots.

RC Sneak Peek Day 1 - Hello

Hello! It's the first day of Reverse Confetti July sneak peeks, and today I'm sharing a card created using the new Build a Bunch stamp set, the Hello Square Confetti Cuts die set, and my newest 6x6 patterned paper pad, Under the Umbrella.  

To create my card, I started by first adhering a piece of wavy patterned paper from the Under the Umbrella 6x6 pad to a Cloud White card base. I then used the Hello Square Confetti Cuts on a piece of Stone card stock, and adhered the die cut to the card front.  Next, I stamped one of the leaf images from Build a Bunch in Midnight ink, then die cut them with the Build a Bunch Confetti Cuts. 

The largest flower from the set was stamped in Versamark ink onto Iced Aqua card stock, and heat set with white embossing powder before die cutting the shape.  To finish up, the leaves and flower were adhered to the card front and I embellished with black enamel dots.

Have a great one!

Prickley Pear Blog Hop - Bigger Than Your Fear

Hello! CardMaker Magazine has teamed up today with Prickley Pear for a blog hop to showcase some of their adorable products. :) Hopefully you've reached my blog by way of Lisa McGushion's blog, but if you'd like to start at the beginning of the hop, please click HERE.

To create my card, I first started by cutting a piece of watercolor paper to 4 x 5.25", and stamping it with the Let Your Faith Be Bigger stamp set in Versafine black ink.  I then stamped the remainder of the panel with the Petunia stamp set in Versafine black ink.  Once the images were stamped, I then heat set them using clear embossing powder.

The images were then colored with watercolor paints, and zapped with the heat gun to reduce dry time.  Once the panel was dry, a coral ribbon was adhered to the front, and the panel was then adhered to a light orange card base using foam tape.  To finish up, I embellished with yellow enamel dots.

Want to be entered for your chance to win a $20 gift certificate? Head on over to the Prickley Pear blog for full details... :) Thanks for stopping by today, next up on the hop is Michelle Pearson's blog. (To see the full list of today's participants, please click HERE.)

RC Blog Hop - Hello

Hello! It's the 8th of the month, which means it's Reverse Confetti blog hop time, and I'm sharing a card today using the uber cutie panda from the Miso Happy stamp set.

Next, I stamped the uber cute panda from Miso Happy in black ink before die cutting it with the Miso Happy Confetti Cuts.  I then colored the panda's nose, and secured him to the card front with foam tape.  The sentiment was die cut from Buttercup cardstock using the Hello & Thanks Label Confetti Cuts, popped up with foam tape and secured to the card front beneath the panda.  To finish up, I embellished with green enamel dots.
