Reverse Confetti November Release Blog Hop

Welcome to the Reverse Confetti November Release Blog Hop!  I had so much fun using the new products from the release and I have several projects to share with you today.   You should have hopped to me from the very talented, Melissa Phillips!  










I made this cute square card using the new Scalloped Squares and the Large Diamond Cover Panel as the foundation of my card using Iced Aqua card stock and white cardstock.     



I stamped the images from the Cool Friends and Sweet Holiday Stamp sets onto Premier Polar White cardstock and colored with my Copic markers.    I then die cut with the Sweet Holiday and Cool Friends Confetti Cuts.    






On my next card, I did some partial die cutting with the Scalloped Squares Confetti Cuts and extended it to cover my A2 panel.   Place your cutting pads about halfway over the die and run thru your machine and then move the die down the cardstock and die cut the lower half and place the plates again about halfway over the die.   The plates should only cover what you want to cut instead of the whole die.   



I then ink blended with Lagoon and Iced Aqua inks onto the panel.   I added some snow with a white Sharpie.   I stamped a sentiment from Kitchen Love and white heat embossed it.   


I stamped several images from the Sweet Holiday and Cool Friends Stamp set on Premier Polar White cardstock and colored with my Copic markers.   I then die cut them with the Sweet Holiday and Cool Friends Confetti Cuts.   I added it to a kraft card base and wrapped some red and white twine around the top.   


My next card I created a scene with the cute little elves from the Christmas Cheer Stamp set.  I also used the tree from the Christmas Bear stamp set released in September.   I stamped them all on the Premier Polar white cardstock and colored with my Copic Markers and then die cut them with the matching Christmas Cheer and Christmas Bear Confetti Cuts.   



I ink blended Wisteria and Abyss inks onto the background and then used my white Sharpie to create the snowy background.    I added a snow bank with the Nuts about You Confetti Cuts using some white cardstock.   I added glitter around the edge for some additional sparkle.   


I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas Cheer stamp set on the snow bank and then added my images to the card, some were popped up with foam tape to add dimension. 





For my last project today, I made a tag to use for homemade treats at Christmas using the Kitchen Love stamp set.   I stamped the images using Brick ink on white cardstock and then die cut the white cardstock and some Brick cardstock with the Scalloped Squares Confetti Cuts.   


I also used the small square die to cut a piece of Midnight cardstock and white heat embossed a sentiment from the Kitchen Love set.   I added a red gingham ribbon and some twine and wrapped it around my treat bag.  This tag was super quick to make and you could make several of these really quick during the holidays. 




I hope that you are as excited as I am about the new release.  I love it all!   The products are available now in the Reverse Confetti store for purchase!   Please continue along the hop to see what the other Confetti Crew members have to share with you.   Next up on the hop is the super sweet, Lisa Henke!

Countdown to Confetti - Happy Winter


Welcome to Day 3 of Countdown to the November Release for Reverse Confetti!  Today we are sharing the new stamp set, Happy Winter.   For my first card today, I used the stamp set and coordinating Happy Winter Confetti Cuts along with the new paper pad, Cheerful & Kind.    I stamped my images with Parakeet ink.   The white square is actually the negative from the Scalloped Squares Confetti Cuts.    










For my next card, I used Lime Green, Tangerine and Stone ink to stamp several images from Happy Winter and cut them out with the Happy Winter Confetti Cuts.   I again used the patterned paper from the Cheerful & Kind paper pad.   This is a paper pad that you can use year round!   It has great colors not only for Christmas but I can see Spring, Easter and Summer with this pad! 







I added some snow sequins and some clear sequins for a little sparkle.   With the Happy Winter set there are so many ways that you can combine the images to make tons of different hats.  For the hat on the bottom, I used a border stamp from the set and stamped several rows and made my only patterned paper and then die cut with the hat Confetti Cut.

Countdown to Confetti - Sno Awesome & Kitchen Love

Welcome to Day Two of the Reverse Confetti Countdown to the November release.   I have three cards to share today using the Sno Awesome and Kitchen Love stamp sets and matching Confetti Cuts.    


First up, I used the new Cheerful & Kind 6x6 paper pad and stamped the Sno-Cones out of patterned paper and white heat embossed the images.   I also used Baby Blue and Tangerine cardstock which goes great with the new Cheerful & Kind paper pad.   I cut the images out with the Sno Awesome Confetti Cuts.   

For my main panel, I watercolored with some pink watercolor paint and made a messy background.    





I stamped one of the sentiments from Sno Awesome in black Versafine ink and then added my sno-cones with foam to pop them off the main panel.    I added some sequins to finish off the card.   I layered the watercolored panel onto a white card base.   





For my next card, I again used the Sno Awesome stamp set and the new Scalloped Stripe Panel for my main focal point on the card.  I die cut the Scalloped Stripe panel from Cloud White cardstock and then layered some vellum cardstock behind it and placed it on a card base from Cloud White cardstock.   





I used the Cheerful & Kind paper pad again and some Flamingo cardstock and stamped the images again and white heat embossed them and cut them out with the Sno Awesome Confetti Cuts.   I added a small felt flower from the Build a Bunch Confetti Cuts and added a small white pearl.   






On the inside, I stamped a sentiment from the Sno Awesome Stamp set. 






For my last card today, I used the Kitchen Love stamp set.   I decided to go with a Christmas theme for this card.    This stamp set made me think of homemade goodies at Christmas.   This would be a perfect card to pair with some homemade Christmas cookies.   



I stamped the images onto Midnight cardstock and then white heat embossed them.   I knew that I wanted to frame the sentiment with the new Scalloped Squares Confetti Cuts so I made sure to stamp it towards the center top and then stamped the other images around it.    



I cut the Scalloped Square several times out of white cardstock and layered them all together.   I also die cut the Holly Confetti Cuts from Avocado and Brick cardstock and placed them in the corner of the frame.   I trimmed the Midnight panel and then added a white base and then placed the panel onto a Brick card base.    





I added some hemp twine and a little metal bell to the twine as I plan to use this as a card to give with some homemade goodies this Christmas.
