Reverse Confetti Sept. Release {sneak peeks day 2}

How about yesterday's kick off to the September release from Reverse Confetti??? It's so exciting. Today we have a little bit of FOREVER FALL peeks for you.







The big release is September 8 and until then we'll continue to tease you with sneak peeks. You can read all about it on the Reverse Confetti Blog. 


Let's get things started today with  a Happy Fall card. I used my Tim Holtz Distress markers again to ink up my sentiment. I used a Deconstructing sketch from the other week for the card layout.



 Those little squares were perfect to do up with Whole Lotta dots and a sentiment, from the new stamp set, Forever Fall. 




Here is a closer look at a few other elements included in this adorable FALL set. Those acorns just make me smile. Love the polka dotted tops. I punched a whole in the tops and added an eyelet to make them into custom charms. 

See that woodgrain in the background?? It's part of the Forever Fall set, too.  OMG! It's awesome and looks great anywhere!

Now how about a  sweet little trio of fall cards. I love having these little 3x3 cards on hand. They are great way to give a note for just about any reason. AND you can cut a whole bunch from one sheet of 12x12 card stock. Here is a close up of each one I created. I kept them simple, allowing the beautiful stamps from Forever Fall shine!




I have a close up shot of each card.  This one shows that beautiful woodgrain stamp. I accented the heart by stamping the border twice, once on the card base and again on a scrap of Steel Blue card stock. I cut out the teeny heart and glued it on top of the Brick Red base. A few twine cross hatches and a Thank you sentiment and this card was done. 
I think this one is my favorite of the trio. I used the Acorn image again and paired it with one of the blocked sentiments. Jen thinks of the greatest design elements, mixing and matching the fonts like that....Brilliant! I added a touch of white colored pencil to color in the ampersand. I ran a quick stitch around the edge to give a polished look to the card. A little detail and still keeps the card simple and flat to tuck it into an envelope easily. 

I couldn't resist making a card with the sweet polka dotted pumpkin and this darling sentiment. For some reason, "hello pumpkin" just makes me smile. The pumpkin and stem are separate images, making it easy to add the two colors for a more realistic pumpkin.  I added the graphic circle border from Whole Lotta Dots along the bottom. 




There will be a $15 gift certificate up for grabs. Please leave a comment on each sneak peek post for each designer. Comments will close at noon (CST) on September 7th and the winner will be announced at 5pm on September 7th.
