Reverse Confetti | July 2022 Release Blog Hop

Hello there, I am delighted to be joining Reverse Confetti for their July 2022 Release Blog Hop today. This is such a fabulous release and my projects today give me all the summer vibes (we are in the middle of a heat waves here in the UK, so they are very appropriate!). More details on the hop below.

My first project uses the new Reverse Confetti Dog Days Stamp Set. This set features some super cool dogs (I use one on my next project) but I fell in love with the palm trees and sun image so wanted the focus to be on that. It was stamped on to white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I then coloured it with Copic Markers (the colours that I used are listed below the supplies list) and die cut it out using the coordinating Reverse Confetti Dog Days Confetti Cuts. 

I took a panel of white cardstock and using the MFT Mini Cloud Edges Stencil, blended on Distress Inks for the clouds. I used Worn Lipstick at the top, followed by Dried Marigold and then Squeezed Lemonade. For the sand, I used the MFT Drifts & Hills Stencil and Antique Linen Distress Ink. The panel was adhered to an A2 white card base with thin foam tape. 

I die cut two additional layers of the image from white cardstock and stacked them up before adhering to the card. I stamped the sentiment from the Reverse Confetti Sunny Flower Stamp Set on to white cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied White 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 Little Things Raindrops. 

I couldn't resist making a tag with the Reverse Confetti Dog Days Stamp Set, so I stamped the palm tree image again but masked off the smaller tree. I also stamped the dog with the surfboard. They were coloured using Copic Markers and die cut out. 

I die cut a Reverse Confetti Lovely Tag Die from white cardstock for the main tag and black cardstock for the hole reinforcer. On the white part, I added ink blending with Distress Inks for a subtle beach/sea/sky background. I used Antique Linen for the sand, Peacock Feathers for the water and Mermaid Lagoon for the sky. 

The images were added on top with thin foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from Reverse Confetti Dog Days Sentiments Stamp Set on to black cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied white embossing powder and heat set. It was fussy cut out with scissors and added to the tag. To finish off, I added twine through the top of the tag and Nuvo Crystal Glaze to the dog's sunglasses. I also some white gel pen highlights to the images. 

My final project for today uses the new Reverse Confetti Sunny Flower Stamp Set. This stamp is great because you can really mix and match the different elements. There is an outline, a solid image, added detail, different flower centres etc. I stamped the flower outline and leaves images multiple times on to vellum using Versamark Ink. 

I applied white embossing powder and heat set. They were die cut out using the Reverse Confetti Sunny Flower Confetti Cuts. I also cut two flower centres from yellow cardstock. I then die cut the Reverse Confetti Large Rainbow Circle Confetti Cuts from shades of pink, yellow and aqua cardstock. They were layered on to a white circle die cut with thin foam tape. The circle was then adhered to a 4.25" x 4.25" white card base. 

The flowers were adhered with thin foam tape and then the leaves tucked underneath and adhered with liquid glue. The sentiment was heat embossed on black cardstock and cut in to a strip before adding to the card with more thin foam tape. To finish off, I added pink and yellow enamel dots.
