Reverse Confetti July Blog Hop!


AmyRaccoon2

We hope you all agree that this month’s release from REVERSE CONFETTI is hot, hot hot!  We changed things up a bit this month and brought you more dies than ever before, but still quenched your thirst for those fun Quirky Cuties with Rocky Raccoon and introduced what’s sure to be a new favorite, Fabulous Flamingo, just to name a couple of the new stamp sets (there are 4—along with 7 Confetti Cuts Die sets).  Today, we are making a final splash with all the new products, and bringing you our Reverse Confetti new release blog hop.  You’ll have it made in the shade once you see all the fun you can have with this release! 


The hop started over on the Reverse Confetti blog, and you should have made it here from Jessica Fick’s blog. It would be worth your while to start at the beginning of the hop, so you don’t miss a thing. We have tons of inspiration for you to see using all the new Reverse Confetti stamp sets and dies!

I must confess....I don't color but what I have been loving lately is watercoloring with Distress Inks!  So I inked up Rocky Raccoon with Versamark and heat embossed in black.  Then I went to town watercoloring and adding shading.  I actually had fun coloring!!  I layered Rocky onto some die cut circles from Circles 'n Scallops and carefully layered them so that the chevrons still lined up on the paper.  My sentiment was stamped onto a banner diecut from Tag Me.
