Blog Hop - Right as Rain

Reverse Confetti May Release Blog Hop

The wait is over! REVERSE CONFETTI has just released FIVE stamp sets, SIX Confetti Cuts and “Let’s Celebrate” Quick Card Panels in the May “Birthday Release”!!

The hop started on the Reverse Confetti blog, and you should have made it here from Lisa’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!

For my first card, I stamped one of the hats from the Party Hats set and cut it with the coordinating Confetti Cuts die.

I added garlands cut with the Star Garland and Double Banner Garland Confetti Cuts sets. I topped the Party Hat with a pom pom cut with glitter paper using the separate die in the Party Hats Confetti Cuts set. The background is one of the “Let’s Celebrate” Quick Card Panels.

For my next project, I used the Love and Ice Cream stamp set and Love & Ice Cream Confetti Cuts.

I stamped and heat-embossed a sentiment from the Love and Ice Cream stamp set and cut it with the banner from Tag Me Confetti Cuts. To make the ice cream, I cut one of the “Let’s Celebrate” Quick Card Panels with a die in the Love & Ice Cream Confetti Cuts set. The cone was cut and then dry embossed.

I hope you’ve enjoyed hopping with us today. Be sure and hop with us on the 8th of EVERY MONTH for more REVERSE CONFETTI inspiration! Now it’s time to hop on over to Kathy’s blog. If you get lost along the way, you can find the hop order and list of all the participating designers over on the Reverse Confetti blog.

Reverse Confetti Countdown to Confetti Day Three

It’s Day Three of the Countdown to Confetti at Reverse Confetti! Today, Reverse Confetti introduces Love and Ice Cream stamp set and Love & Ice Cream Confetti Cuts.

I couldn’t resist creating the ice cream scoops and cones out of some patterned paper in non-traditional colors to create a CAS card. The Love & Ice Cream Confetti Cuts set provides lots of options! I adhered the cones to a scallop circle cut with one of the Circles ‘n Scallops dies.

There are FOUR $25 gift certificates up for grabs – two for blog commenters and two for Facebook commenters. Increase your chance of winning by leaving a comment on each sneak peek post for each designer. Comments will close at noon CST on May 7th and the winner will be announced at 5pm on May 7th on the Reverse Confetti blog and FB page.

Reverse Confetti “Spring is in the Air” Blog Hop

Welcome to the Reverse Confetti Spring Fling Blog Hop! You should have reached my blog from Leigh’s.

Today, I’m sharing a thank you gift idea created with one of the four dies in the Layered Banner Duo Confetti Cuts set. I had in mind an appreciation gift when I created this project-the gift would work as a thank you to a teacher, a volunteer, or a work colleague.

I cut the banner in three colors of cardstock to which I adhered wood letters from my stash. (I have a lot of chipboard and wood veneer alphabet sets!) I punched the banner pieces in the corners and ran twine through the holes, tying the twine onto the stakes, which are BBQ skewers. The banner is an easy way to make a distinctive and customized gift.

Next on the blog hop list is Laurie.

Be sure to leave a comment at each stop along the way for a chance to win a $15 gift certificate to the Reverse Confetti store…in time for the May 8th release. Comments are open until May 1 and the winner will be posted on the Reverse Confetti blog on May 3.

Reverse Confetti Blog Hop

The wait is over! REVERSE CONFETTI has just released FIVE stamp sets, EIGHT Confetti Cuts and “Piña Colada” Quick Card Panels in the April “Special Release”!!

For my first card, I stamped one of the pineapples from the Pineapples Aplenty set several times, adding the pineapple tops, and cut them with the coordinating Confetti Cuts die. I added a sentiment pair with Fancy Word Coordinates and the Fancy Words Confetti Cuts to create a colorful thank you card.

My second card features one of the sentiments from Shine From Within stamped with ombré ink. I cut the stamped sentiment with the rectangle die in the Documented Confetti Cuts set that I then cut with two of the dies from the Office Edges Confetti Cuts. The stars were cuts with the Shakers ‘n Frames Confetti Cuts set.

Light It Up Blue for Autism Awareness Blog Hop

Today, I’m sharing a card created for the Light It Up Blue for Autism Awareness Blog Hop. Fantastic sponsors are showing their support for Autism Awareness and you can see the complete list on the post. If you would like a chance to win a prize from one of these fabulous companies leave a comment on this blog and any of the other blogs participating in today’s hop! Winners will be chosen at random and announced on Monday, April 6.

The theme for the cards and projects is “blue” and can be for any occasion. Here’s my “Thank You” card created with Reverse Confetti stamps and Confetti Cuts. Reverse Confetti is one of the blog hop sponsors.

I stamped flowers from the Petals ‘n Posies set, as well as die-cut some with the Confetti Cuts set without stamping, in shades of blue. I also used the small flower in the The Tweet Life Confetti Cuts set to cut some smaller blooms. The watering can was cut with my Silhouette. I added a dry-embossed panel, onto which I stamped the sentiment from the Petals ‘n Posies set.

Head on over to the Light It Up Blue for Autism Awareness Blog Hop post for all of the details.
