Reverse Confetti January Release Blog Hop

Sweet Thing

It’s a new year, and what could be better than to start it off with a brand new shiny release from REVERSE CONFETTI?!  Love is definitely in the air with the 6 new stamp sets (including our new QuirkyCuties line) and 3 new Confetti Cuts Dies.  We invite you to hop along with the Confetti Crew, Challenge Crew, and a few other friends today as we share our cards and projects using the new products.  We think you’ll fall in love over and over with this release!

If you're like me, you've had to pull up your socks a few times and maybe even had to pick your jaw up off the floor this week...this January Release at Reverse Confetti is spectacular!

The hop started over on the Reverse Confetti blog, and you should have made it here from Susan Dean’s blog. It would be worth your while to start at the beginning of the hop, so you don’t miss a thing. We have tons of inspiration for you to see using all the new Reverse Confetti stamp sets!

I hope you’ve enjoyed hopping with us today.  Be sure and hop with us on the 8th of EVERY MONTH for more REVERSE CONFETTI inspiration! Now it’s time to hop on over to Laurie Schmidlin’s blog. If you get lost along the way, you can find the hop order and list of all the participating designers over on the Reverse Confetti blog.

A few things before you hop along though, just to keep you “in the know”…

Fresh Squeezed Stamps - When Hearts Collide

Welcome back for the second day of the Fresh Squeezed Stamps January Release!  I had a ball creating a collaged background of images (peeking from under the vellum) from the new stamp set, When Hearts Collide!  There are hearts of all shapes, sizes, and patterns!  You will have a ball with them, too!

The retrosketches  #96 was the basic layout of my card...great for creating that fun vellum overlay!

I used some fun patterned papers along with a jumbo button and fushia twine from Pretty Pink Posh!

You can't go wrong with FUN stamps, FUN paper, and FUN embellishments!

Make sure you stop by the Fresh Squeezed Stamps Blog to see the other eye candy from the design team!

Seize the Sketch #11 - Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps

It's time for a new Seize the Sketch!  Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is sponsoring this challenge, STS #11, and provided some super cute images for the designers to work with!

The image and sentiment that I used on my card is from the new stamp set, Hey, Hot Stuff!  A perfect stamp and sentiment for today...my first day back to work after a long winter break!  I'm going to need lots of coffee to get going moving!  

I kept my card fairly simple! My new motto for 2014...the KISS method...Keep It Simple, Sweetie!

The Teresa Colins paper is a leftover pad that my sweet Colorado friend, Annette Allen at My Clever Creations, gave me when I visited back in Ocotober!  Love the yellow and gray tones and patterns in this paper pad!  Thanks, Annette!

Countdown to Confetti - Day 3

Crushin' 

It's Day 3 of the Reverse Confetti Countdown!

I was inspired by my fellow crew-mate, Amy Kolling, to create this stamped background with a vellum overlay!  The images/sentiments in this new set, Crushin', are super fun to create your own backgrounds and collages!
