Reverse Confetti | 9th Birthday Release Blog Hop

Hello there and welcome as we celebrate the May 2022 release from Reverse Confetti. It is extra exciting because it is Reverse Confetti's 9th Birthday too! I have loved Reverse Confetti's style from the beginning and I am so happy and honoured that I work with them for their releases. Every release just puts a smile on my face! :) We are celebrating the release with a fun, inspirational blog hop. More details on that below.

For my first two cards, I am using the super cure Birthday Buddies set, along with the Birthday Buddies Banter set which features really fun sentiments to go along with the images. 

I started off my first card by stamping the bee from the Reverse Confetti Birthday Buddies Stamp Set on to white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I also stamped the heart trail from the Reverse Confetti Love Bugs Set. The bee was coloured using Copic Markers. It was die cut out using the Reverse Confetti Birthday Buddies Confetti Cuts and set aside. 

I die cut the Reverse Confetti Big Sun Confetti Cuts from white and yellow cardstock. On the yellow layers, I added ink blending with Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Mustard Seed and Wild Honey. They were then adhered to white layers for some added dimension. I also die cut three clouds from the Reverse Confetti Over the Rainbow Confetti Cuts from white cardstock. 

The sun was added to an A2 white card base with liquid glue and then the bee, trail and clouds added with a combination of thin foam tape and glue. I took the sentiment from the Reverse Confetti Birthday Buddies Banter Stamp Set and stamped it on to black cardstock with Versamark ink. I applied White Detail Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut in to a strip and added to the card with more thin foam tape. To finish off, I added a few Lucy's Cards Raindrops. 

For my next card, I started off by stamping the turtle and balloons from the Reverse Confetti Birthday Buddies Stamp Set on to white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I coloured them with Copic Markers and die cut them with the Reverse Confetti Birthday Buddies Confetti Cuts. 

I took a panel of white cardstock and added ink blending to it with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks and blending brushes. I used Chipped Sapphire, Blueprint Sketch, Prize Ribbon and Shaded Lilac. I then splattered on Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleed Proof White Paint and set it aside to dry. 

Once dry, it was adhered to an A2 white card base and then the balloons added on top with another two layers of white die cuts. The turtle was added with foam tape. The sentiment, from the Reverse Confetti Birthday Buddies Banter Stamp Set, was heat embossed in white on to black cardstock, cut out and added to the card with foam tape. To finish off, I added a few Lucy's Cards Raindrops. 

For my last card, I couldn't resist inking up the beautiful Wildflowers set. This set is so pretty and perfect for colouring but can be used without too, like I have done today. I started off by creating my ink blended background using Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks on Heavystock Cardstock. I used Ink Blending Tools and Domed Foams with Chipped Sapphire, Shaded Lilac and Kitsch Flamingo Oxide Inks. 

I then spritzed on some water before setting it aside to dry. Once dry, It was die cut using the frame in the Reverse Confetti Layered Mom with Frame Confetti Cuts. I also die cut the frame separately from white cardstock twice. On the inside piece of the ink blended one, I stamped the Reverse Confetti Wildflowers Stamp Set image using Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink. 

I then stamped the sentiment from the set above the flowers. The piece, along with the frame were then splattered with Dr. Ph. Martin's Bleed Proof White Paint and Sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz. It was set aside to dry and once dry, I layered up the frame and adhered it to a 4" x 5.25" white card base. The stamped piece was then popped inside.
