Hi everyone! Welcome to the Reverse Confetti Summer Fun Blog Hop! This month we are taking the hop and adding SUNSHINE and SUMMER!
Nothing speaks more to me during summer than a nice cool drink! Specifically a margarita. Today my husband and I are hosting a party for a bunch of friends and the margarita machine is already in full swing! :)
I thought it would be fun to dig out some fun glasses and add a touch of Reverse Confetti in the form of tags for them! I've used Pineapples Aplenty and coordinating Confetti Cuts. Since I'm packing up my craft room to move, I had to go on a hunt for my Shrink Film. I used matte shrink film and sanded it down per the directions. I stamped my pineapple image with PIGMENT ink, diecut, and added a tiny hole with a hole punch, and then baked at 275 degrees for about 3 mins. It was so fun to do some "shrinky dinks" again!
I tied them to my fancy glass with some twine.
**************************************************
I also played around with the Pineapples Aplenty for a quick card. I stamped and diecut my pineapple and set aside. My blue layer was stamped using So Stripey in white pigment ink. I layered my image over some diecut circles from Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cuts and added some black gems.
