Reverse Confetti & Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - Birthday - You're Fintastic

Hello stampin' friends! I am SO happy that I was able to get crafty again! I made this FUN birthday card with the NEW Reverse Confetti, Oceans of Love Stamp set and Oceans of Love Confetti Cuts. I ordered this sweet stamp set from, Simon Says Stamp, along with some other Reverse Confetti Stamps from the new release. I am entering my card, You're Fintastic, in the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - Birthday Celebration! 

I made this card from MFT Heavyweight Cardstock in Kraft and Natural and used Reverse Confetti Cardstock in Baby Blue.

I used my "Reverse" water-colouring technique on this card....I just love doing this and find it much less time consuming than water-colouring each image. I used the "smooshing" technique with my Distress inks to create sheets of water-coloured paper and then strategically stamped the images on the paper to get the desired watercolour effect. I did go in with my ZIG Clean Color Real Brush Watercolour pens and add some extra definition/contrast to the adorable little sea-turtle...I've been calling him Squirt, lol and some of his friends!  I also stamped some images from the Reverse Confetti Mermaid Kisses Stamp set from my stash.

I embellished with some hemp twine tied to the sentiment strip where I stamped the sentiment from the Oceans of Love Stamp set and I added a sprinkling of sparkly blue YNS Gumdrops. 

I created the water-coloured background for the scene again using the "Smooshing" technique with my Tim Holtz Distress inks and then strategically cut out several different colours with the NEW Circle of Waves Confetti Cuts. I also created a frame using my MFT Circle STAX Die-namics cut from MFT Whip Cream Heavyweight Card Stock and popped it up with foam adhesive. 

It doesn't show in the photos but I added some sparkle with my ZIG Wink of Stella Clear glitter pen.  

I finished the inside of the card too. The Happy Birthday sentiment is from an old Reverse Confetti Stamp set - Monkey Business. I don't know if you are like this but I really like all the fonts on a card, inside and out, to match.  I also used a sentiment from the NEW Oceans of Love Stamp set that is super cute.  

Thank you SO much for stopping by and having a little look at my card for the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - Birthday Celebration using the NEW Reverse Confetti Oceans of Love Stamp set and Confetti Cuts. 

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - MFT Stamps & Spellbinders - Together Forever

Hello stampin' friends! just quickly stopping by to share another card I made for my friend, Glenda. She needed another wedding card. Again, I went for a more vintage/romantic look with the fall colour palette for the wedding. It was a great opportunity to use some of my paper flowers that I have been hoarding for years. I also used the MFT Stamp set LJD Together Forever for the sentiments. I am entering this card in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Stamp On It.

I picked up the beautiful Oval Ironwork Nestabilites die set at my local scrapbooking store. Then I decided to pull out all my old Nestabilites Dies and I paired it with the  Nestabilites Labels Seven and the Deckled Oval Nestabilites. I cut some bronze metallic cardstock from my stash with the Oval Ironwork Nestabilites die. 

I stamped the sentiment from the MFT Stamps LJD Together Forever on MFT Whip Cream Heavyweight Cardstock with VersaFine Onyx Black ink. I cut the sentiment strip with the MFT Pierced Fishtail Flags Die-namics using the "cut and re-cut' technique to resize the strip. I embellished with paper flowers from my stash, twine and some brown half-pearls. 

I finished the inside of my card too....I stamped another sentiment from the MFT Stamps LJD Together Forever.  Thank you for stopping by and having a little look at my card for the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Stamp Challenge - Stamp On It with MFT Stamps and Spellbinders Nestabilites.

Reverse Confetti - October SFYTT # 41 Simon Says Challenge - Best Witches

Hello stampin' friends! I'm popping by with my Reverse Confetti card for the October SFYTT # 41! I finally inked up this sweet Best Witches stamp set from Reverse Confetti! This is such an adorable set and I loved being able to use some of the accessory stamps from the Too Cute To Spook stamp set, the two sets coordinate SO well! 

This is the fab SFYTT # 41 sketch I used

 I am also entering this card in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge too - they have a fun Halloween Inspiration Board this week!

I made my card following the RC SFYTT # 41 with Authentique Thrilling 6X6 paper pad. I added an extra layer thats not on the sketch...eeekkk...I hope that's okay?! But I really wanted to use the NEW Web tag Layer Confetti Cuts that coordinates with the Topped Off Tag Confetti Cuts. I colored the Best Witches girl, bat and spider with my Copics and popped them up on the circle and fishtail banner made from the Reverse Confetti Tag Me Confetti Cut. 

I added a few YNS Orange Gumdrops and tied the Web Tag with Hemp cord. I also added some Stickles  to the stamped images for a little sparkle and stamped a cute sentiment from the Best Witches Stamp set. 

I finished off the inside of my card too....I stamped a shadow image of the Best Witches girl and the bat from Too Cute To Spook Stamp set in Tangy Orange Premium Dye Ink and stamped a sentiment from the Too Cute to Spook Stamp set. 

Thanks SO much for stopping by and having a little look at my Reverse Confetti Card for the October SFYTT # 41 and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!

Reverse Confetti - Retro Sketches #234 & Simon Says Stamp - Birthday Wishes

Happy World Cardmaking Day stampin' friends! I'm popping by to share my Reverse Confetti card I made for a special little guy, my nephew, Conor! He turned one and I had to make him a special birthday card to celebrate the big day! I knew I wanted to colour up this adorable elephant from the Reverse Confetti Coffee and You Stamp. I substituted the coffee cup that the elephant juggles on the end of his trunk for a stack of birthday cupcakes from the Reverse Confetti Lift Me Up Stamp set.

I'm entering my card in the Simon Says Stamp -Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes

I'm also entering it in the Retro Sketches Challenge # 234 - This is a fun challenge to use any previous RS sketch....

....So this is my take on Retro Sketches # 197 

I subbed out the fancy frame on the Retro Sketches # 197 for the Reverse Confetti Gift Card Holder Tag that I cut from Kraft Cardstock and stenciled with the NEW RC Lotsa Dots Stencil with Tim Hotlz Twisted Citron Distress ink. I used the Reverse Confetti Circle Sentiments, Scalloped Circle Confetti Cuts, Detailed Circle Confetti Cuts and layered it over a stitched fishtail banner cut from Primitive White Heavyweight Cardstock. 

I absolutely love the All Framed Up Confetti Cuts and couldn't resist adding the large stitched frame to this card cut from Primitive White Heavyweight Cardstock...I popped it up with foam tape, layered over the fun green polka dot paper from the NEW Reverse Confetti Fright Night 6X6 paper pad. I coloured the sweet little elephant from the Coffee and You Stamp set and coloured up the cupcakes from the You Lift Me Up Stamp set, fussy cut them and popped him up on the tag. I finished off the card with a sprinkling of Navy Blue YNS Gumdrops and tied the Tag with some Blue AC Hemp Cord. 

Thanks SO much for stoppin' by and havin' a wee peek at my Reverse Confetti birthday card for the Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes and Retro Sketches #234!
