For my card today, I layered Piggy Bank cardstock and a pattern from the Sweet as Sugar pad for the background. The heart border is from the Hearts Confetti Cuts set.

The 'Love' word is from the new All The Love set and the strip sentiment is from the new So Very Lovely set. Fabulous release, right?! What's going into your cart today? In case you missed seeing my Countdown to Confetti cards, here's a recap...
It's here, it's here...Reverse Confetti Release Day and Blog Hop!! Today all the fabulous products that have been featured the last few days are available in the store!! Today, I have a few more projects to share...as well as a special one later in the post! But for now, my first card was created with Nuts About You stamp set and coordinating Confetti Cuts. I used the Rounded Stripe Panel Confetti Cut and leave/branches in the set to create a trunk of a tree where our sweetie squirrel is storing his acorns! The background is one of the designs in the new Every Little Bit 6x6 paper pad. On to my second card...the Tag Duo Confetti Cuts are so fun and work perfectly with the Haunt It sentiment stamp set. Our cute little monsters from Monsterous stopped in, too, to send a Halloween hello! For my third project, I created a card and a coordinating treat bag using a Bitty Window Bag! For the card, I layered a couple of the designs in the new Every Little Bit 6x6 paper pad, created a shaker using the Fa La La Circle Confetti Cut and add the tree image from Christmas Bear. The Bitty Window Bag has a zip top to keep the contents fresh (I placed a couple shortbread cookies inside). I decorated the outside with the pattern paper used on the card and the words from the Fa La La Circle Confetti Cuts then tied on little bells with natural twine. But wait...there's more! Remember I told you there was a special project I was sharing: Reverse Confetti has collaborated with Simon Says Stamp and created an exclusive, limited time only stamp set just for STAMPtember! All of the profits from this set are going to a charity that is close to Jen Del Muro's heart "The Pink Fund". She says: "...they offer financial support to women going through Breast Cancer Treatment. While I am fortunate enough to not have to utilize such services, it is close to my heart and an important cause to me...." Thanks for joining us these past few days and hope you've enjoyed the sneak peeks on Countdown to Confetti.

The jar, flowers, bee images (copic colored) and sentiment (stamped on vellum) are from the new Bee Happy stamp set with coordinating dies. For my next project, I created a simple, easy CAS card. I have to admit, I wanted to add other images from the new release, but sometimes keeping it simple works fine too! I first layered one of the patterns from the new From Cupid Paper Pad and a strip of Dark Roast cardstock to the card base. For the background, I used Rose reinker on watercolor paper then used the new Hello Lovely die to cut the center. The Dark Roast peeks out from behind the die cut words. To add a little dimension, I adhered the rounded parts of the 'e' and 'o' and highlighted with a white gel pen adding a few sequins too. Hope you'll hop along to see what the other designers and guests are sharing today and, of course, check out all the newness in the Reverse Confetti store!

It's release day at Reverse Confetti! All the new May release products are available to purchase in the Reverse Confetti Store. I created several projects to share today and first I am sharing a birthday card created with Party Animal. I stamped the images onto Premier Polar White card stock and die cut with the Party Animal Confetti Cuts. I colored with my Copic Markers and then stacked each one on top of the other. The card panel was created with the new Party & Celebrate Confetti Cuts. I first stamped a panel of Iced Aqua with the Elemental Stripes stamp set and then die cut the Celebrate word die from the stamped panel and some RC Aqua card stock. I then inlayed the RC Aqua pieces into the panel. The Bumblebee panel was die cut with the Diagonal Stripes Cover Panel and then trimmed down to 5 1/4 by 4 inches. I added my stamped and colored images with foam tape and then added some details with my Crystal Glaze and clear sparkling sequins. Next up, I used the new Square & Circle Frame and die cut some patterned paper from Sweet Stripes 6x6 paper pad and also die cut it from some white card stock. In the corners, I used some adhesive strips in each corner of my card base and added some glitter to the corners. My puppy images are from the new Ice Cream Social stamp set and Confetti Cuts. I colored with my Copic markers. For the stitched circle from Square & Circle Frame Confetti Cut I inked some Distress Oxide Cracked Pistachio ink. The sentiment is from the new So Many Sentiments and was white heat embossed onto Midnight card stock. The tiny hearts come from Heart Pals. My birthday tag is the new See Through Tag Confetti Cuts. I die cut two tags, one from Premier Polar White and the second from Iced Aqua. I adhered them together and placed a piece of acetate between the two. Afterwards, I realized I could have used card stock but the acetate was a little thinner. I stamped a sentiment on one side from Party Animal and on the other side a Circle sentiment from Christmas Circles in Iced Aqua ink. You will notice I took the die cut small circle and put it on the opposite side. I then added an elephant, a balloon and party hat from Party Animal and colored with my Copic markers. I added some clear sequins and yellow and white twine to finish it off. All products are available to purchase today from Reverse Confetti! We have a super special blog hop today to celebrate the release. Please make sure that you hop along with us for more product inspiration!!

Welcome to the Reverse Confetti November Release Blog Hop! I had so much fun using the new products from the release and I have several projects to share with you today. You should have hopped to me from the very talented, Melissa Phillips! I made this cute square card using the new Scalloped Squares and the Large Diamond Cover Panel as the foundation of my card using Iced Aqua card stock and white cardstock. I stamped the images from the Cool Friends and Sweet Holiday Stamp sets onto Premier Polar White cardstock and colored with my Copic markers. I then die cut with the Sweet Holiday and Cool Friends Confetti Cuts. On my next card, I did some partial die cutting with the Scalloped Squares Confetti Cuts and extended it to cover my A2 panel. Place your cutting pads about halfway over the die and run thru your machine and then move the die down the cardstock and die cut the lower half and place the plates again about halfway over the die. The plates should only cover what you want to cut instead of the whole die. I then ink blended with Lagoon and Iced Aqua inks onto the panel. I added some snow with a white Sharpie. I stamped a sentiment from Kitchen Love and white heat embossed it. I stamped several images from the Sweet Holiday and Cool Friends Stamp set on Premier Polar White cardstock and colored with my Copic markers. I then die cut them with the Sweet Holiday and Cool Friends Confetti Cuts. I added it to a kraft card base and wrapped some red and white twine around the top. My next card I created a scene with the cute little elves from the Christmas Cheer Stamp set. I also used the tree from the Christmas Bear stamp set released in September. I stamped them all on the Premier Polar white cardstock and colored with my Copic Markers and then die cut them with the matching Christmas Cheer and Christmas Bear Confetti Cuts. I ink blended Wisteria and Abyss inks onto the background and then used my white Sharpie to create the snowy background. I added a snow bank with the Nuts about You Confetti Cuts using some white cardstock. I added glitter around the edge for some additional sparkle. I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas Cheer stamp set on the snow bank and then added my images to the card, some were popped up with foam tape to add dimension. For my last project today, I made a tag to use for homemade treats at Christmas using the Kitchen Love stamp set. I stamped the images using Brick ink on white cardstock and then die cut the white cardstock and some Brick cardstock with the Scalloped Squares Confetti Cuts. I also used the small square die to cut a piece of Midnight cardstock and white heat embossed a sentiment from the Kitchen Love set. I added a red gingham ribbon and some twine and wrapped it around my treat bag. This tag was super quick to make and you could make several of these really quick during the holidays. I hope that you are as excited as I am about the new release. I love it all! The products are available now in the Reverse Confetti store for purchase! Please continue along the hop to see what the other Confetti Crew members have to share with you. Next up on the hop is the super sweet, Lisa Henke! The full hop list is below!

I then used one of the Pierced Round Top Layers dies and white embossed the stars and sentiment from the new Christmas Cheer set. The adorable elves, also from the Christmas Cheer set, were copic colored and cut with the coordinating die cuts. Now on to my next card filled with some wintery fun... For the base, I layered one of the designs from the new Cheerful & Kind 6x6 paper pad onto a piece of Royal Purple cardstock. Using the new Scallop Squares dies, I created a fun shaker and added the sentiment which was white embossed on Midnight cardstock. Are these snowmen from the new Cool Friends just the cutest or what?!! To finish, I added white snowflakes created with the Snowflake Trio dies. What do you think of the sneak peeks so far?! I have one more peek to share today... For this card, I began with a design from the new Cheerful & Kind 6x6 paper pad for the base. I white embossed the candy images in the new Sweet Holiday set onto a strip of Sand cardstock. The Brick cardstock panel was cut with the new Scallop Stripe panel die. Then, I white embossed the Sweet Holiday gingerbread house on Sand cardstock. The Christmas trees were first stamped and die cut on Sand cardstock then stamped on a Cheerful & Kind pattern paper design and fussy cut; the stars were die cut from Bumble Bee cardstock. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment onto the smaller of the Tag Duo dies and added a bow made with Honeydew twine.

Welcome to the New Release Blog Hop!!!! The June Release is now available at Reverse Confetti! YAY! There are some adorable products that have been released this month. I have two projects to share with you today for more inspiration. There is a ton of inspiration to be shared today with a super fun and fabulous Blog Hop! First up, I combined Girl Power and Party Pals for a super adorable card. I paired it with the new Center Circle Cover Panel. I backed it with some patterned paper from Under the Umbrella patterned paper. I used the Inside Scallop Circle Tag and trimmed off the tag to create a circle for the center of the cover panel. I stamped the images from Party Pals and Girl Power onto Premier Polar White cardstock and then colored with my Copic markers. I then die cut the images with the Party Pals and Girl Power Confetti Cuts. I stamped a sentiment from Party Pals onto some more patterned paper from Under the Umbrella and topped it with a stamped heart. I added some details with my white gel pen. Next up, I created a gift for a puppy birthday! I filled a jar with some dog biscuits and then added a puppy birthday tag using the Inside Scallop Circle Tag and the Corgi Cuties stamp set. I die cut the Inside Scallop Circle Tag with Navy cardstock and created a shaker tag. I die cut one of the tags with the scallop die and then lined the tag with window sheet. I filled it with crystal sequins in various sizes. I stamped the puppy with the birthday crown from Corgi Cuties onto Premier Polar White cardstock and then colored with my Copics. I die cut it out with the Corgi Cuties Confetti Cuts. I stamped the Celebrate sentiment from Corgi Cuties onto a banner from the Flower for Mom Confetti Cuts. I added it to the jar with some red and white ribbon! That is it for me today! All the June products are now available at Reverse Confetti Shop!!!! Now, onto the hop!

It's time for the February Reverse Confetti Blog Hop! This month's them is Anything But a Card with a Valentine theme! I decided to stick with the traditional Valentine color combo and used all of the cardstock colors in the Reverse Confetti Combo #4 - Rose, Flamingo, Salsa and Piggy Bank. You should have arrived from Amy Kolling's blog! I made several treat boxes using the Clear Treat Box and Box Wrap Combo. I wanted to stamp a small heart on my box wraps so I looked thru my Reverse Confetti stamp sets and found the cute little cutout circle heart in the Circle Wishes stamp set. I stamped them with the corresponding ink from the Ink Color Combo #4 onto the box wraps. For the third treat box, I used the Falling Hearts panel cut from white cardstock. To decorate my boxes, I stamped the dinosaurs from No Tomorrow and then only colored in the spines and circles with red Copic markers. I die cut them with the No Tomorrow Confetti Cuts. That is the only coloring that I did so that they would match my Valentine color theme. I die cut some hearts from the XOXO hearts Confetti Cuts and added them to the box wrapped treat boxes. For the last one, I added some cardstock to the inside for the dinosaur and hearts to pop off from the Salsa cardstock! For my sentiments, I used the Heart Filled Sentiments and white heat embossed them and die cut them with the Tag Duo Confetti Cuts. I tied them to the boxes with some white and silver twine from my stash. I added some Clear Sparkle from my Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen to the dinosaurs. I then filled them with some Hershey Kisses, Valentine York Peppermint Patties and the last one had some cute socks from Target. I can't wait to hop along myself to see what everyone has created! I love to make Valentine treats! Amy Kolling Melissa Phillips Tricia Barber - that's me!

Welcome to the third and final day of the Reverse Confetti June release sneak peeks! Tomorrow, Reverse Confetti will release four new stamps sets, seven new Confetti Cuts die sets, & the new By the Sea Quick Card Panels! Today we are sharing projects made with the new Because of the Brave stamp set! For my card, I wanted to create another simple card that really showcased some of the fabulous new sentiments in the new Because of the Brave stamp set. After I stamped the three sentiments, I added some star die cuts (using the new Seeing Stars Confetti Cuts die set). I am loving the fun mix of stars in this new Confetti Cuts set! That's all from me today! Make sure to stop back by tomorrow for the new release hop! :-) You can see the whole list of Confetti Crew members sharing projects today over at...
Welcome back to Day 3 of the Fall-iday Blog Hop! Today we are sharing Christmas projects. I created a Christmas card using non traditional colors of Turquoise, Pink and Black! I used the new Holiday Gnome stamp set and colored the girl gnome in turquoise and pink. I also stamped a tree but instead of coloring it, I covered it in glue and sprinkled glitter all over it. You can barely see it in the photos but it looks great in real life! Pardon my photos! I got a new Photo light set up and with the natural light leaving me earlier and earlier each day, I needed to break out the Photo Lights and get used to using them. I used some of the patterned papers from Abundantly Autumn paper pad and pulled out the turquoise, pink and black papers to add to my card. I also used the Bags & Tags Creator die to cut my main panel and then cut two squares one from white card stock and one from patterned paper. I stamped my sentiment to the side. Here is a close up but you still cannot see the sparkle on the tree. I wrapped a black and white ribbon from my stash around the card panel and then mounted it to the card with some foam tape. Don't forget that today is the last day for the sale at Reverse Confetti! You can save 15% off your total order! Please hop along to see what the Confetti Crew and Friends Christmas Creations!

I am so excited! Today is day one of the Reverse Confetti Countdown to Confetti March release and we are sharing the new Sealiously and Honey Bear Stamp sets and matching Confetti Cuts! These are new Dawn Machell images and the stamps sets are now in a larger size! I love these sets and have 4 cards to share with you today using both the stamp and Confetti Cuts along with a new Stitched Rays cover panel. Can you handle the cuteness! My first card is using Honey Bear along with the new paper pad, Fun Times. I used some of the patterned paper for my background and added some white cardstock to the top and bottom and trimmed the edges with the Edge Essentials Confetti Cuts. I stamped the images from Honey Bear onto Premier Polar White cardstock and then trimmed it out with the Honey Bear Confetti Cuts. There is also a tree in the stamp set that you can stamp the apples into the leaves. Total cuteness! I love the Glossy accents on the nose! I colored all my images with my Copic markers and then added details with some Glossy accents and my Clear Spectrum Noir sparkle pens. I am totally in love with these little bears! The matching Honey Bear Confetti Cuts makes it so easy to create scenes with these adorable images. Some of the images were popped up with foam tape and others I adhered flat to the card. Speaking of creating scenes, my next card I used the new Stitched Rays Cover Panel and made a window for my scene. I love the bright yellow from the Bumblebee cardstock and cool tones of the RC Aqua cardstock. These bright and cheery colors make me so ready for Spring! My window is just bursting with Sunshine!!! I used the Fa La La Circle Confetti Cuts to cut a circle out of my Stitched Ray panel and then used the scalloped die to create the frame. I sponged some Iced Aqua ink onto my white card base and then I added my images flat to my white card base. Look at all that stitching detail in the Stitched Rays Cover Panel! 😀 You will see this Stitched Panel on quite a few of my new release projects during the sneak! I decided to carry my scene over to the inside of my card and added a few more of my Honey Bear stamped images. All the images were stamped onto Premier Polar White cardstock and colored with Copic Markers. For my hill, I carried over the RC Aqua cardstock to the inside of the card. I used the Nuts about You Confetti Cut to create the hillside. I just loved the way it turned out and need to finish off the inside of my cards more often! Next up, I used the Sealiously stamp set and created a really cute and simple card. I stamped the images again using Premier Polar White cardstock and then trimmed them down with the matching Sealiously Confetti Cuts. I colored them with my Copic markers. I also trimmed out a pink felt heart using the Circle Wishes Confetti Cuts. I added some detail to my seal with my Copics with little dots of color. This set has 6 sentiments to choose from! The Sealiously Confetti Cuts cut the perfect white boarder around the images. To create the waves, this is the negative cuts from the Scalloped Striped Panel Confetti Cuts. I used Iced Aqua card stock and covered a piece with stick it adhesive before running thru my die cut machine to make them easier to adhere to my Cloud White card panel. Reverse Confetti is giving away a $15 gift certificate to one blog commenter and also to one Facebook commenter. Here is a link for the Reverse Confetti Facebook page.

Today is release day and all products are available for purchase at Reverse Confetti! We are hopping today with all the designers! You should have arrived here from Amy Sheffer's blog! Her projects are always so gorgeous! I have three cards to share with you today. My first card is a little different for me but I absolutely loved it when it was done. I used the Tall Flowers stamp set and gold embossed it on a piece of Navy cardstock. I created a background with the one flower and stamped it multiple times. I trimmed the embossed piece down to 3 3/4 x 5 inches. I then took another piece of cardstock and applied my Versamark ink to the four sides and gold heat embossed it twice to get a smooth finish to the gold embossing. I die cut a rectangle from the upper part of the navy and gold panel with the Lacy Scallop Frames Confetti Cuts. I stamped a sentiment and gold embossed it onto white card stock scrap. The sentiment in the stamp set is one line but I just used post it tape and taped off the wishes so that I could stamp it below the get well. I covered the back of the Navy panel with foam tape. I just used a scrap of white so it was easy for me to line the sentiment up in my window and press down with the foam tape to secure straight and in place. I then just added regular adhesive to the back of the white sentiment and lined it up on the gold embossed panel. I added that panel to a Navy card base and added some clear sequins for a final bit of sparkle. I love the gold and Navy together and it made for a very elegant get well card. For my next card, I decided to do a little watercoloring of the images from Sealiously! This is such an adorable set. I stamped the images onto watercolor cardstock and then clear heat embossed the Versafine ink. I really like to heat emboss my stamping when I watercolor. To me it is much easier to contain my colors and keep them from spreading around. I had recently purchased some Tombow Dual Brush pens and they are water reactive. I really liked using them and can't wait to use them again. For my card, I really wanted to use the one of the sentiment stamps from My Sunshine. I loved the bright pop of yellow with the rainbow umbrella. I stamped You are my Sunshine sentiment using Bumblebee ink and die cut it with the My Sunshine Confetti Cuts. The rule follower in me wasn't sure if the sentiment from My Sunshine could be used with two seals that needed an umbrella. So for my card, the little seals are basking in the sunshine and using the umbrella to get a little shade! I really loved the pattern paper in the new Fun Times paper pad so I decided to build the rest of my scene with the patterned paper. I added a strip of white to separate my sky and grass using the Double Edge Scallop Border Confetti Cuts. I added some light blue and white twine at the top and some clear sequins to finish it off. My last card today, I used Sealiously again and created another sunburst pattern using the Stitched Rays Cover Panel and some Mist cardstock. I then inked every other ray with the Iced Aqua ink. I die cut my sun using the Flowers for Mom Confetti Cuts and Sunshine and Premier Polar White cardstock. The banner was created also from the Flowers for Mom Confetti Cuts and Rose cardstock. I white heat embossed a sentiment from Sealiously onto the banner. The cloud, seal and rain drop images from Sealiously were stamped onto Premier Polar White cardstock and colored with my Copic markers. I then die cut them with the Sealiously Confetti Cuts. I used my Spectrum Noir clear sparkle pen and added it to the rain drops and the cloud. I then added some Glossy Accents to the raindrops.

The 'dad jacket' was created by taking Dark Roast Cardstock and cutting the bottom using the Rounded Stripe Panel as a guide and placed a piece of pattern paper from the Free Spirit pad (facing forward) behind the top part, cutting a slit at the top and folding down the ends. Taking a Clear Treat Box, I placed a piece of pattern paper from the Free Spirit pad and adhered it to the bottom of the box, a piece of Cloud White cardstock to the top and wrapped the box with the Dark Roast Cardstock piece. I cut a piece of Cloud White cardstock for the 'shirt collar', adding the darling tie from Tie-rific Confetti Cuts cut from a pattern paper in the Forever My Love pad and added a wooden button. The word die is from the Tie-rific Confetti Cuts. The box was then filled with golf tees. To coordinate with the golf tee box, I filled a Treat Tube with golf balls and used the Treat Tube Topper die to cut Sand Cardstock and placed on top of the tube. For the tag, I started by cutting a piece of pattern paper from the Forever My Love pad using the Dashed Line Tag die. The sentiment from Tie-Rific was stamped on one of the dies in the Tall Tag Trio collection. The sweet Koala images used here are from the Bear Hugs stamp set and coordinating dies. To tie it all together, a little gift card - the pocket was cut from a piece of pattern paper from the Forever My Love pad using a die from the Tie-rific Confetti Cuts and the stamped sentiment is also from the Tie-rific stamp set. Next up: Congratulations, Graduate! The darling bear from the Honey Bear stamps set/coordinating dies is also 'graduating' and is the feature of the little 'money box'. I started with a Mini Clear Box and wrapped a strip of pattern paper from the Pattern Play pad. For the hat, I simply cut a square piece of Midnight Cardstock and fastened a tassel. The sentiment is from the new My Sunshine stamp set/coordinating dies. For the coordinating shaker card, I placed a piece of the same Pattern Play paper design on a Cloud White card base. Cutting Midnight Cardstock using the Congrats Square Panel, I placed acetate to the back and then foam strips around the panel. I sprinkled crystal looking sequins to the base before adhering the Congrats Square Panel to the base. Then I added the butterflies from the Butterfly Dreams stamp set/coordinating dies. (The stemmed glass die cuts you see are from the Clink Confetti Cuts). And last, but certainly not least, a gift collection for Mother's Day! A couple years ago, my sweet, loving daughter gave me a jar filled with '52 reasons Why You're The Best Mama'! Some of those notes made me laugh (i.e., #7 - You Taught Me To Be Very Crafty) and some made me cry (i.e., #1 - You're My Best Friend). It was the most perfect Mother's Day gift I ever received! So, I used the jar filled with those amazing notes and added this tag. The tag itself was cut from Rose Cardstock and a pattern design from the Fun Times paper pad using the Gift Card Holder die. Those lovely flower/leaf images are from the new Tall Blooms set/coordinating dies and the 'mom' word die from Flowers For Mom Confetti Cuts. For the coordinating card, I cut Cloud White cardstock using the Linked Circles Cover Panel die and placed on a card base. Taking Sand cardstock, I cut two 'wreaths' using the Swirlies Confetti Cuts and layered them. I fussy cut several floral images from the Tall Blooms set and arranged them around the wreath. The banner and word die are both from the Flowers For Mom Confetti Cuts. Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you liked the projects I shared today.
