Countdown to Confetti: S'more Love

Welcome to day two of sneak peeks at the January Reverse Confetti release!

Today we're previewing S'more Love and the coordinating Confetti Cuts!

I just love aqua and red, it's my all time fave color combo and I thought it'd make this cutie pop! I've used the new All Heart Quick Card Panels, cutting it with the Shakers 'n Framers and Hang Ups Confetti Cuts. I've also used the new Double Heart Garland Confetti Cuts for a sweet little banner.

I continued the theme inside the card - how sweet is that little penguin?

Reverse Confetti Creative Blog Hop - Valentine's Edition!

Welcome! It's the 8th of the month, that means it's time for a Reverse Confetti Hop!

This month the team are featuring adorable projects for Valentine's Day using tons of Reverse Confetti goodies! You should have arrived here from Wendy Sue Anderson, if you need to start at the beginning of the hop, head on over to the Reverse Confetti Blog.

Both my projects today be excellent for mass production - the Square Tag Confetti Cuts and Sugary Sweet Sentiments make for cute and fast gifts!

I used the Sweet Treat Tent to package up a bag of Reece's Pieces.

I used one of the new Heart to Heart Confetti Cuts to cut a window on the front of the Sweet Treat Tent.

I put the candy in a cellophane bag and adhered it inside the tent with red line tape.

I think it's fun to repackage the candy so you can see it - can you tell my projects today were inspired by the bight Nerds candy?

For this easy gift, I poured Nerds into a store bought acetate tube (bonus: one box of Nerds will go a long way, perfect if you need to make a class lot of treats) and added my Square Tag embellished with a puffy sticker.

Before you go, it's sale time! Woohoo - treat yourself to some goodies for Valentine's Day, they'll last way longer than flowers!

It's time to hop along and visit with Laurie now - but first, leave a comment to be in to win! Simply comment on each stop along the hop and you could win $15 to spend on some Reverse Confetti of your own.

You should have arrived here from Sankari - you can start back at Julee's blog if you need to start the hop from the beginning!

I used the graphic as inspiration for my card - the flower stems are from Dream Big (plenty of other Verve sets would work for this look as well!) and I made little heart flowers with the Heart Quartet Die. The banners were cut with the Banner Bundle and my favourite Pennant Trim Die. The sentiment is from Stronger Love.

I added some stickles and rhinestones to bling up the hearts a little.

It's time to go visit with the always fabulous Susan now!

Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Kissing Booth!

It's time for a new Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge!

I've used lots of fabulous Reverse Confetti goodies on my card today!

photo source: thetomkatstudio.com

My card started with a fun Happy Heart Day Quick Card Panel and papers inspired by the graphic. The sentiment is from I Like You, and the ampersand is from the new Documented Confetti Cuts. The vellum layer was cut with Circles 'n Scallops and I used Tag Me Confetti Cuts for the sentiments. The Arrow die got a nice thick coat of glossy accents before I added some enamel dots.

Make sure you visit each of the designers' blogs for more inspiration!
