Reverse Confetti December Creative Hop

Good morning!!  It's another exciting morning on the blog because it's the Reverse Confetti December Creative Hop!  You should be stopping in here after visiting my good pal, Leigh Penner.  If you missed a stop on the hop, make sure you check out the Reverse Confetti Blog to start from the tip top!  You won't want to miss a thing!

For the hop, I created this adorable little pillow of coffee goodness!  ;)

I started this creation with a Frosted Pillow Box full of Starbucks Via packets.  I wrapped my pillow box with an Envie Wrap Confetti Cut in red.  I attached a piece of black and white ribbon to my wrap and added a bow to the top before layering a green polka dotted scalloped shape and a red circle cut using the Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cuts, and a Scalloped Circle Confetti Cuts stamped with a sentiment from With Love.  Once I had my scallop stack, I added a paper pieced coffee mug using the Be A Barista stamp set.

For fun twist on this hop, we are sharing our 3 favorite cards made with Reverse Confetti goodies from 2015.  I've added mine below and if you click on the picture, you'll be taken to the blog post about each card and the products I used.

   

I hope you enjoyed my project for this hop.  Don't forget that you have a chance to win a $15 Reverse Confetti gift certificate just by commenting along the hop!  Just leave a comment at each stop along the hop now through Thursday December 10th for a chance to win.  Next up on the hop is Laurie Schmidlin.  You are going to love her creations!!  Don't forget to visit the Reverse Confetti Blog if you get lost along the way.  Ha ha!  Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Reverse Confetti SFYTT #31

Hi everyone!!  It's time for me to show off my creation for this month's Reverse Confetti SFYTT (Sketch For You To Try).  I had a great time playing with this sketch and I hope you've been inspired by it too.  You can check out the sketch here on the Reverse Confetti Blog and read all about how you can join in the fun.   Here's the card I created using the sketch:

I had a blast with this sketch especially because it gave me an excuse to use this adorable Santa from Jolly Holiday.   I colored him with copics and added some pearl paint to his fluff.  :)  I used some patterned papers to make my cute rectangle for Santa to stand on and added Joy from the Winter Words Confetti Cuts.  I added a little extra fun with a little tab cut from the Hang Ups Confetti Cuts adorned with an enamel dot.  I layered these with some rectangles of patterned paper and glitter tape as well as two Wreaths Confetti Cuts cut from vellum and green cardstock.  I love how these emulate the arch top in the sketch.  Here's a closer look: 

 
We can't forget about the awesome sketch!  Here's the sketch you get to play with:

Make sure to come play along with us at Reverse Confetti.  If you play along you have a chance to win a $20 Gift Certificate and the title of 'Fetti Fave.  Be sure to read all about it on the Reverse Confetti Blog.  Hope to see you there!

   

   

Countdown To Confetti Day Two

Are you ready for another day of fun Reverse Confetti peeks?  It's day 2 and I've got another fun gift to share with you!  I just know you are going to love this release so, don't forget to check out the Reverse Confetti Blog for even more sneak peeks and inspiration.

Here's my fun project using some of the new release items coming November 8th.

For this project I used one of the Frosted Pillow Boxes from last month's release to make this cute gift of candy.  I started by wrapping the pillow box in burlap, and black zigzag ribbon, and some twine to hold the tag I created.  My tag was created using the new Topped Off Tag Confetti Cuts and some gold star patterned paper.  I cut the side panel from wood veneer  and layered a piece of gold foil paper under to create gold stripes.  I stamped a sentiment from With Love in the corner of my tag and then cut a vellum and gold wreath using the previously release Wreaths Confetti Cuts.  I used twine to tie my wreath cuts to a wood veneer snowflake and hung that from the ribbon at the top of the tag.  I love how it dangles!  I then used twine to attach the tag to my gift.  

   

I hope you enjoyed my peek at the goodies that will be available from Reverse Confetti on November 8th!  Don't forget to check out all the other amazing designers' creations by visiting the Reverse Confetti blog.  While you are hopping along, don't forget to comment for your chance to win a $15 gift certificate and you can up your chances at a win by visiting the Reverse Confetti Facebook Page and leaving a comment for another chance at a $15 gift certificate (all the details can be found on the Reverse Confetti blog).  So, get going and don't forget to comment!  ;)

Countdown To Confetti Day One

Good morning everyone!  It's day one and my first time showing off some new Reverse Confetti goodies as a 'Fetti Friend.  I'm SO excited!  You guys are going to love this release, I sure do, and I can hardly wait to share it all with you.  This month's release is perfect for gift giving and with the holidays right around the corner, I know you are going to enjoy the new stamp sets, Confetti Cuts dies, and the Quick Card Panels!  Don't forget to check out the Reverse Confetti Blog for even more fun!

Today, I'll be sharing a fun little coffee cup gift adorned with the perfect gift card holder!

I started my shaker gift tag by cutting some fun zigzag paper with the new Gift Card Holder Tag with the smaller rectangle die positioned to cut a window.  I also cut a back from a black triangle patterned paper by removing the small rectangle die and positioning the small slit opening die toward the top portion of my base tag to create an opening to insert my gift card into my tag.  To make the shaker, I used some acetate which I cut just larger than the window opening, filled with sequins, and sealed shut.  I used the little Hang Ups to add a hit of gold at the top of my tag to bring in the gold from the sequins.  I felt the green from my gift card needed some representation on my tag so I stamped "thanks" using Alphabetical on a piece of vellum and put a small strip of green glitter tape along the bottom before wrapping it around my tag.  Now for the inside!

I wanted a little something special on the inside when the gift card was removed and a sentiment from With Love was just what the doctor ordered.  I stamped this on my base tag layer (with the slit) and embossed it in gold.  I think it adds just the right touch to say thanks and I care. 

I hope you enjoyed my peek at the goodies that will be available from Reverse Confetti on November 8th!  Don't forget to check out all the other amazing designers' creations by visiting the Reverse Confetti blog.  While you are hopping along, don't forget to comment for your chance to win a $15 gift certificate and you can up your chances at a win by visiting the Reverse Confetti Facebook Page and leaving a comment for another chance at a $15 gift certificate (all the details can be found on the Reverse Confetti blog).  So, get going and don't forget to comment!  ;)
