Reverse Confetti March Countdown - Floral Gem + Sentimental Gems


It's the third and final day of Reverse Confetti's September release countdown - welcome!

Today's featured products are FLORAL GEM and SENTIMENTAL GEMS.

All of the new products will be available for purchase at midnight (ET) tonight.


 Don't miss our two chances to win a Reverse Confetti gift certificate: 1) Leave comments on each designer's blog; 2) Head over to our Reverse Confetti Facebook page for an additional giveaway. 


Sigh ... what a gorgeous floral set!

 

I started by stamping the main image from FLORAL GEM as well as all the separate layering florals onto some Cloud White card stock. I colored everything in softer colors with my Zig markers, then layered everything together.



I stamped a simple sentiment from SENTIMENTAL GEMS at the bottom and accented with more florals and the bee from HAPPY BEE DAY. Last touch was some gold splatter. These images don't require much!

Are these SO SUPER superheros just the most darling?! I decided to make a family portrait father's day card for my husband. The images are perfect -- two boys, one girl, and even a dog! 



My background is a white panel that I die-cut with the STITCHED RAYS COVER PANEL. Next I created a scene element out of the new STITCHED HEX TAG diecuts.



I die-cut the word "dad" using the MOM & DAD WORD DUOS Confetti Cuts die, and triple stacked the letters for a chunky, chipboard look. 



I colored all my superheros with Copics and placed them around the STITCHED HEX TAG element.



My boys ...



... and my girls.

I think my husband will get a kick out of this come Father's Day. And look how far ahead I am!

Reverse Confetti March Countdown - Hatbox Florals + Word Up


Hello and welcome to Reverse Confetti's March release countdown! The March release includes six stamp sets, eleven die sets, and a new paper pad. We're starting off with a beautiful floral set, HATBOX FLORALS, and a fabulous all-purpose sentiment set called WORD UP.


All of the new products will be available for purchase at midnight ET on the 8th.  


 We love giveaways! Two chances to win a Reverse Confetti gift certificate: 1) Leave comments on each designer's blog; 2) Head over to our Reverse Confetti Facebook page for an additional giveaway. 



I've used a number of new products today for a Mother's Day ensemble: HATBOX FLORALS, STITCHED NOTE & FRAMES, STITCHED HEX TAG, WORD DUOS: MOM & DAD, and DARLING DOTS paper pad. 



I started by stamping the HATBOX FLORALS images and coloring with Copics in soft pastels. For the card, I did some simple layering with a strip of DARLING DOTS paper, along with the stitched note diecut, which is part of the STITCHED NOTE & FRAMES die. Next I added the floral cluster, then the word "mom" diecut along with a sentiment from WORD UP.



For the coordinating gift sack, I started with  two Grape Soda panels and first stamped the floral image in white pigment ink. Next I ran the panels through my diecut machine with the STITCHED DIAGONALS COVER PANEL Confetti Cuts die. Last, I diecut the panels with the SCALLOPED BAG & TAGS CREATOR Confetti Cuts.

The hatbox image is on the new STITCHED HEX TAG and behind that is another strip of the aqua polka dot pattern from the new DARLING DOTS paper pad.




I added some shimmer to the flowers with my clear Wink of Stella pen. Surprise, no sequins -- a first in a long time - ha!

Reverse Confetti February Blog Hop

Hello, it's the 8th of the month, which means it's time for Reverse Confetti's monthly blog hop. No theme this month, so be prepared for a variety show today!

You have likely arrived here from my sweet friend Amy Kolling's blog, and you'll head to the talented Tricia Barber's blog next. If not, you can begin the hop at the Reverse Confetti blog. I'll have the full hop order at the end of this post.



For today's project, I'm finally getting around to finishing up a card design I started months ago, when SNOWFLAKE MAGIC was first released! At the time, I was loving the idea of non-traditional, spring/summer colors for my snowflakes, and I'm loving these colors even more now.
I chose SUNSHINE, PISTACHIO, ICED AQUA, and BELLINI.

I am feeling adventurous in the video department too, so I even have a video for you today. It's nothing special, just a process video, but I hope you enjoy, and if so, do subscribe to my channel and/or leave me a comment. I'm hoping to do videos much more often!






After stamping and doing some ink blending to the snowflake centers, I built a sentiment flag using WINTER WORDS, WINTER WORD COORDINATES and TALL TAGS TRIO.



Accents and embellishments include SNOWFLAKE TRIO diecuts that I added shimmer to with a clear Wink of Stella pen and lots of clear sequins.




Enjoy the hop today, friends! I hope you finish the hop feeling inspired and creative!
