Reverse Confetti - Countdown to Confetti Day 1

It's time for the Countdown to Confetti September Release! It's the holiday release with Reverse Confetti with 6 new stamp sets, 11 Confetti Cuts die sets and a new 6x6 paper pad! Today we are sharing Peony and Sentimentally Yours stamp sets. I created a cover for a journal that I plan to give away during the holidays. I picked up the journal at Michaels and created a water color panel using the new Peony stamp set along with Sentimentally Yours.

To start, I stamped onto watercolor paper with Versafine Onyx Black ink and clear embossed it. I did some stamp masking as I wanted to create a cluster of flowers and leaves in the corners of the panel. I started out with a piece of watercolor paper larger than my journal and then trimmed it down with my craft knife after adhering to the journal. I used Distress Inks to watercolor the panel. To seal the cover, I used Distress Glaze and rubbed it over the cover panel.

I stamped a sentiment from Sentimentally Yours that I thought went nicely with the Peony stamp set. I white heat embossed it onto Midnight cardstock. I was going to put the sentiment directly onto the journal, however, I forgot to do it before I sealed the panel. I used some ribbon to tie the journal shut. I did not adhere the ribbon to the journal but just tied around the book. I will add this Rae Dunn pen from a set that I got from a home goods store. It went nicely with the book.

You may notice a little something new this month with new watermarks on the product photos to protect against threat against Reverse Confetti's original artwork - Support Design - Not Crime!
