Cardmaking and Scrapbooking with Jean Manis
Card created for the now defunct Reverse Confetti Sketch For You To Try Challenge.
I chose traditional holiday red and green solid cardstock and patterned paper. With the white card base, I needed the sentiment to stand out, so I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from Seasonal Sentiments on black cardstock. I added a tree cut with the Branch Out die set attached with dimensional adhesive.
I’m playing along with CAS(E) this Sketch #99 with a card created using Reverse Confetti stamps and dies.
I stamped several of the flower images from the Petals ‘n Posies set and cut them with the corresponding Confetti Cuts set. I used a sentiment from Sweet Thing.
Even though it’s November, and I’ve been making a lot of holiday cards, I decided to take a departure with this card by stamping with my bright-color inks!
The holidays are right around the corner and REVERSE CONFETTI has just released a collection of new products that will help get you in a festive mood and jump start your holiday crafting! With 4 stamp sets and 7 new Confetti Cuts dies/sets, there’s plenty to choose from.
For my first card, I cut the tree branches (Branch Out Confetti Cuts) and the Mini Circle Garland from foil paper, combining those with traditional red and green, as well as a silver heat-embossed sentiment from the Seasonal Sentiments set. I backed the garland die cut with a solid cardstock panel, cut with the die included in the Class Act Confetti Cuts set.
For my next card, I created a mini forest, again with foil branches from Branch Out and a silver sentiment from the Seasonal Sentiments set. I used the Circle Garland to create a snowy hill top and added snowflakes from the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts set.
For my last card, I created several panels using the Triple Chevies Confetti Cuts from which I cut circles in various diameters to resemble ornaments. The bows were cut from brushed silver cardstock using a die in the Tagged Tote Confetti Cuts set. I added snowflakes from the Let It Snow Confetti Cuts set and another sentiment from Seasonal Sentiments. I will be using this sentiment set over and over!
Today’s Countdown to Confetti is for an awesome stamp set called North Pole Wishes with its own companion die cut set! The stamp set includes sentiments perfect for the holiday season!
I stamped one of the set’s sentiments on black cardstock. After heat embossing, I added white pigment ink with my finger for a chalkboard look. The envelope was heat embossed on red cardstock and cut with its coordinating die.
