Avery Elle / Beachy

Hi everyone!
I'm here with a mid-summer card for those "sunny" days!!!

The Beachy stamp set is so fun with lots of adorable images to create your own beach scene! The background was done by ink blending a die cut (using the Slimline Borders Elements) over and over to create a blue, summer sky. The beach was ink blended lightly with a brown ink. The focal point was made using the Oval Burst Elle-ments and adding it with foam adhesive to the background.

The beach elements were all Copic colored, die cut, and added to the scene with foam adhesive. For some sparkle, Crystal Stickles was added to the images. The sentiment was stamped onto a banner die from Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments.

Here's to some sunny summer days!!!

Supplies:

Reverse Confetti / July Release Day!

Welcome to the July Reverse Confetti Blog Hop!

Make sure to visit my past posts about all the new products available this month! The new release is NOW available in the Reverse Confetti shop.

***Shop for Reverse Confetti HERE***

For today's card, I had to revisit the Flower Builder Confetti Cuts. There are so many combinations of color, layouts, assembly.....so much fun to work with.

I went with a white and grey color palette for this. The background was done using the Deco Cover Panel done in white. The Flower Builder was done all in white except for the center in a very light yellow. The flower and sentiment (from Sunny Flower) were added to a Stitched Hex Tag Confetti Cuts. For the finishing touches, some iridescent grey pearls were added.

Join us for the BIG blog hop!

And cue the CUTENESS!!! The newest critter set from Reverse Confetti are the dogs from Dog Days!!

My first card uses the sweet dog relaxing on a beach......I wish I was there too except I wish I had a margarita in hand. 😀😀

Throw some rainbow colors into the umbrella.......the dog itself doesn't need color and is the star of the show!! The background was done by masking off some lines onto a white notecard. How adorable is this??

***************************************

My second card is a mini slim card measuring 6 1/4 x 3 1/4 and is the perfect size for creating a scene like this beach!!

Again, I masked off areas of my white notecard to create a simple beach scene. The sand was created by making tiny dots with various colors of Copics and a white pigment ink pen but leaving space to stamp the sentiment in bold black.

*************************************************

Reverse Confetti / Countdown to Confetti / Day 2

It's Day 2 of the JULY release from Reverse Confetti! We welcome 3 new stamp sets, 3 HOT FOIL stamps, and 5 new Confetti Cuts! Did you see there is now HOT FOIL??? Entire release will be available on 7/15!

Let's get the party started!!

Today's products will be ones used over and over!

I created this card duo using the new Little Bits Envie Confetti Cuts in a lightweight ivory cardstock. The inside holds 2 5/8" notecard/panel which is just the perfect size to add in a stamped note from Little Bits Sentiments.

To embellish the front, the Flower Builder Confetti Cuts was die cut in blue, pink, and green cardsock. Each piece was ink blended just a shade darker. This saves so much time vs. ink blending the whole flower!

Each flower once assembled was adhered to the front of the Little Bits Envie with a piece of foam adhesive. Each petal and leaf were "fluffed" for dimension.

***************************************

This card was made using the Flower Builder Confetti Cuts but making some coneflowers in yellow!

Again, just like the flowers above, the leaves and petals were ink blended in shades darker for some depth. Each flower was arranged over a die cut All Lined Up Cover Panel with a light blue ink blended background peeking through.

The sentiment (from Little Bits Sentiments) was selectively masked off because I just wanted this soft script portion. The sentiment was tucked in neatly among the petals and leaves. To finish the card, a few gems were added and each petal/leaf was "fluffed" for dimension.

Reverse Confetti / Countdown to Confetti / Day 1

It's time for the JULY release from Reverse Confetti! We welcome 3 new stamp sets, 3 HOT FOIL stamps, and 5 new Confetti Cuts! Did we say HOT FOIL? Yes, we did!!!

Let's get the party started!!

Are you a hot foil fan? This release has a new product to the Reverse Confetti product line.....Hot Foil!!! I am crazy for hot foil so these were some of my favorites to use this release!

Both of my cards use Sunny Flower stamps and dies. My first card uses the flower stamp with the outline stamp. I love the versatility of this option.......it gives another dimension to your stamped image! I added two flowers to a small rectangle that had two hot foil circular borders added (from Elements Hot Foil). I paired this with the new Hot Foil Thank You and some gold pearls.

*************************************

My second card use the Sunny Flower but without the outline stamping. This option gives a much softer look to the flower.

These flowers were directly added to a white panel die cut using the new Deco Cover Panel. The leaves were stamped and additional detail added with flicks of matching Copic markers. To finish this, a Hot Foil Birthday Wishes sentiment was added along with gold gems.

Avery Elle / Jawsome Wishes

Hi friends!!

I'm here with a 'JAWSOME' mini set from Avery Elle that is perfect for some boy/masculine cards!

***SHOP Avery Elle HERE***

Using the Jawsome Wishes stamp set, the images were Copic colored and die cut. To a white notecard, splatters of Broken China and Sapphire Distress Inks were added. To create the rest of the background, a piece of cardstock was ink blended with Broken China Distress Ink and then die cut using the Waves Elle-ments. This is such a fun die and one that I love having in my stash! To frame out my scene, I added a black die cut frame from Pierced Birthday Frame Elle-ments. All the images were added with foam adhesive to create the scene including a stamped sentiment onto a banner from Easy Layers 1 Elle-ments.

Supplies:

Waves Elle-ments
Pierced Birthday Frame Elle-ments (frame)
