Farewell, Reverse Confetti

Hello there, I am delighted, honoured and saddened to be joining Reverse Confetti today as part of an Instagram hop. Why saddened? because if you haven't already seen the news, after almost 10 years Reverse Confetti have decided to close. If you have followed me for a while, you will know that I have loved and used Reverse Confetti products for a long time. 

I have been honoured to have worked with them for the last four and a half years as part of their release blog hops. They will be truly missed but the shop remains open for the time being with 40% discount off of all products. So, if you like something, please do grab it while you can.

For my card today, I started off by creating the background. I took a panel of watercolour paper and die cut it using the Reverse Confetti Diagonal Stitched Cover Panel Confetti Cuts. 

I then sprayed it with various Tim Holtz Distress Spray Stains. I used Mermaid Lagoon, Uncharted Mariner, Chipped Sapphire and Villainous Potion. I also used a little Salty Ocean Oxide Spray. I then spritzed it with Sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz and Tim Holtz Tarnished Brass Distress Mica Spray before setting it aside to dry. 

Once dry, I added ink blending to the edges using Chipped Sapphire and Villainous Potion Distress Inks. The panel was adhered to a US A2 sized white card base with tape runner. I took the Reverse Confetti Joy to the World Confetti Cuts and cut it three times from white cardstock. They were stacked one on top of another for added dimension and adhered to the card. 

I took the sentiment from the Reverse Confetti Christmas Card Greetings Stamp Set and stamped it on to black cardstock with Versamark Ink. I applied white embossing powder and heat set. It was cut into a strip and added to the card with thin foam tape. 

I die cut the heart from the Reverse Confetti Love Wins Confetti Cuts three times from red cardstock and layered them up on the 'J'. I added an Iridescent Jewel to finish.

LOOKING BACK: FAVOURITE REVERSE CONFETTI PROJECTS

Before I go, I wanted to share some of my favourite previous projects with you using Reverse Confetti. As well their products being excellent quality, I love the quirkiness to their sets. I have always found them slightly different than what is already on the market, which I have appreciated. 

Top left - I do not know why, but I think this might be my favourite project I have ever made with Reverse Confetti products! It uses the Holiday Gnomes and Seasonal Says It All sets. You can read how I made the tag HERE. 

Top right - These are recent makes. Both the card and tag use the Love Bugs Stamp Set and the Postal Cover Panel Dies. You can read how I made the card and tag HERE. 

Bottom left - This card uses the beautiful Over the Rainbow Confetti Cuts along with the Thanks and Hello Duo Word Dies. Sadly, both have now left the website so I cannot link to them but you can read how I made the card HERE. 

Bottom right - These tags use the Dashed Line Tag Die (one of my favourite ever dies!) as well as the Holiday Bough and Seasonal Says It All sets. You can read how I made the tags HERE.
