Countdown to Confetti: Day 2

Welcome to the Reverse Confetti November Release!  We are celebrating with .....2 new stamp sets, 4 Confetti Cuts, and new Quick Card Panels this month!  Did you get a chance to visit the rest of the DT yesterday?  Wow!  Make sure to check out the Reverse Confetti blog for a list full of inspiration and more projects! 

Today we have more TAGS!  Today's tag is called Topped Off Tag and has 2 parts that you can layer over the base tag.

I veered away from the holiday stuff for a bit for this one.  I pulled out the Petals 'n Posies stamps and dies for an every day card that I can send to a friend!  I used the tag "topper" in black for a bold statement because I stamped my sentiment in black.  I layered my tag over some pattern paper and added my blooms from Petals 'n Posies.

 Now for the Blog Hop, there are TWO $15 prizes up for grabs this release:  1 for blog commenters and 1 for Facebook commenters.  So leave those comments and make sure to check the Reverse Confetti Facebook page too!

Countdown to Confetti: Day 1

Welcome to the Reverse Confetti November Release!  We are celebrating with .....2 new stamp sets, 4 Confetti Cuts, and new Quick Card Panels this month!  Wahoo!  Make sure to check out the Reverse Confetti blog for a list full of inspiration and more projects! 

Today we are sharing projects and tags using this AMAZING new BIG die called Gift Card Holder Tag.  The other detail dies Jen included are just genius!  

I began by diecutting the new Gift Card Holder Tag once in white and once with a panel from a set of Quick Card Panels.  This way I could layer them together and create a "pocket" but first I also used the curved die to cut my gift card opening.  

Now take a closer look......the tiny banner die that adorns the gift card holder opening!!!  This is one of TWO dies included to embellish the  opening!  To complete the top of my tag, I've used the new Hang Ups Confetti Cuts.

Now for the Blog Hop, there are TWO $15 prizes up for grabs this release:  1 for blog commenters and 1 for Facebook commenters.  So leave those comments and make sure to check the Reverse Confetti Facebook page too!

Warm Wishes

Hello!  I'm sharing a card today that can also be found over on the Avery Elle blog.  I used the set called Polar Pals from Avery Elle.  

OMG.....this stamp set is adorable!  The one thing that I LOVE about this set is that the images really don't need much coloring!  I've done a bit of shading and coloring here but nothing fancy!  I started with my background of Peacock Feathers Distress Ink watercolor background, added a little splatter, and finally some falling snow using texture paste and a stencil.  My background perimenter was masked off for all of the layers.  

I added some snow capped mountains in the background to build my scene.  I also used the hill dies from Snow Caps Elle-ments!  As a last touch, I added some grey Copic dots to "ground" my critters.

Thanks so  much for sharing a part of your day with me!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!  Just a quick share with a card made for Taylored Expressions but so perfect for "boo" day today!

I've used Peek-a-Boo Pumpkins stamps and matching dies!  I created a Distress Inked sky as a backdrop for my pumpkins and adding in a touch of gold to top things off!

Thanks so much for sharing a part of your day with me!

Happy Holidays!

Hello!  I'm sharing a card today that can also be found over on the Avery Elle blog.  I used the set called Fa La La from Avery Elle. 

Instead of using the main element (the holly vine) from this set, I chose to go a different route and stamp my own background with the tiny holly and berries stamps using Cherry and Jungle inks from Avery Elle.  I used the Scalloped Banners Elle-ments to cut my layers with gold, olive, and white stamped cardstock.  My banner (from Fa La La and coordinating Elle-ments) was done using Cherry pigment ink from Avery Elle.  My banner focal piece was mounted on a notecard from the Sugar Collection notecards.  As a last touch, a burlap twine bow and some clear stickles to the berries were added.

PPP and Altenew Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Pretty Pink Posh collaboration blog hop with Altenew!  You are in for a treat today!  You pair PPP dies and sequins with some of the most gorgeous stamps from Altenew......match made in heaven!

I've used Vintage Roses and coordinating dies from Altenew.  This is a multi-layering stamp set that is amazing.  I've layered my roses over the Decorative Tag 1 from Pretty Pink Posh.  The white panel was diecut using the straight border die from Stitched Borders 2.  I love how it ties in with the stitching from the Decorative Tag.  My sentiment is from the Label Love stamp set from Altenew and was added with foam adhesive.  To finish off, I added some Gold sequins and a tiny diecut bow from the Twine & Bows die set from Pretty Pink Posh.

 There are 2 $30 Pretty Pink Posh gift certificates and 2 $30 Altenew gift certificates up for grabs. Winners will be picked randomly along the blog hop. (Comments must be left by Monday, Oct 26 11:59 EST. Winners will be announced on the PPP and Altenew blogs)

Happy Hedgehugs {Mint Owl Studio}

Hello!  Today I have another project to share with you featuring a stamp set from the brand new company, Mint Owl Studio!  They just had a new release which included 2 stamp sets.  I used the new Christmas Critters for my card today!  This set is full of animals all decked out in holiday attire. 

I decided to go with a more non-holiday card today.  I colored this adorable little hedgehog with Copics and created a darling scene.  There are so many cute details in this set!

Thanks for sharing a part of your day with me!
