Reverse Confetti/ April Creative Blog Hop

Hello, Hello! It's the 8th and that means the Reverse Confetti Crew is getting creative. We are so excited to share our April Creative Hop projects with all our Fetti' Fans. So grab a cup of your favorite beverage and join us.

I have two cards for you today, because I couldn't stop with the gold embossing and water coloring the Floral Gems flowers. I wanted to think a bit outside the box and show you all how versatile this set is. Let's dive in.

I love, just love Stone ink on Premium Polar White card stock. It's subtle and it's beautiful. I used the Floral Gems frame image to create a background for my card. I made sure to stamp off the edges and rotated the image, leaving the center of the image panel open so I could add the sentiment and flowers to the center.

I stamped out a whole slew of the flower and leaf images onto Distress Watercolor card stock in versamark ink and then added gold embossing powder. I hit it with a heat gun and let them all cool. I used my Zig Clean Color Brush markers to add pretty colors. I used the Floral Gems Confetti Cuts to cut each image out and then stamped a sentiment from Word up onto Stone cardstock. I cut it out and added it to the bottom of my floral bouquet.

Here is a closer look at the pretty embossing detail.

My second card today shows more of the Stone ink and Floral Gems as a background image. This time I just used the flower and leaf images along the right side of the panel. I then used the Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cuts to cut out a circle and then added the stitching detail with the Detailed Circles Confetti Cuts. I embossed a sentiment from Sentimental Gems.

I used the rest of the water colored Floral Gems and tucked them in around the circle. I love how this all turned out. Two pretty cards added to my stash.
