Color Throwdown 402


Welcome to  another Wednesday and another fabulous color inspiration challenge from the Color Throwdown Team! This week we are using peach, yellow, light pink,white. Have fun with it. I did, making this birthday card with a few goodies from Reverse Confetti.

I started with the Happy Pretty Panel Confetti Cut and then finished the greeting with a sentiment from Whole Lotta Happy.


There are still a few of the So Very Spring Quick Card Panels in the shop, so I used the aqua heart design and layered it up with some grape jelly card stock. I added a few Copic Colored images from  Lift Me Up and popped them up on top of my panel. 









For more inspiration, check out the other design team members' creations below, and get inky! And don't forget to join us over on the CTD Blog. We can't wait to see what you create with these new colors.

Reverse Confetti-July SFYTT

Welcome Reverse Confetti Fans! it's my turn to share a card with this  month's SFYTT layout. There is still plenty of time to play. Join us. Here is the sketch, 
and here is my card. I always need birthday cards, so the Boxes 'n Balloons Confetti Cut was a great, easy choice for today's card. I kept it super simple. I used the die to cut an orange balloon and then stamped the confetti image from Celebrations along the bottom. 


I added the dotted border from Edge Essentials Confetti Cuts  along the Green Monster card stock panel and then added some stars from You are a Star onto a Documented layer. The sentiment from Celebrations was white heat embossed on to black licorice card stock. I finished it off by tying on some natural solid twine.

Curtain Call-Unicorn



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


The Reverse Confetti stamp set, Unicorn Wishes was the perfect set to use with this week's challenge. Who doesn't love a unicorns?? I colored mine up in pretty pastels with copic markers and used the Unicorn Wishes Confetti Cuts to cut it out along with the pretty shooting star. 

I cut a few clouds with the Sun 'n Clouds Confetti Cut and mounted it all on a watercolored Documented panel. I popped up the finished panel over a Sunburst Cover Panel. 


 The LEAD will be invited as a Guest Designer in a future challenge!

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

Color Throwdown 401-Magical Birthday


Hello everyone! Amy Rysavy here as your host for week's Color Throwdown challenge! She has chosen this gorgeous floral image as the color inspiration and the challenge is to use dark pink, burgundy, pale peach and purple. Remember we just use generic colors (so any brand/type/whatever you have will work) and you can always feel free to add in neutrals (white/black/etc) to make your creation pop!

If you upload your creation to a public gallery, please use the keyword CTD401, and please use #CTD401 and #colorthrowdown on social media so we can find your gorgeous creations!  When linking up your creation using the linky tool below, please be sure to link your specific post, not a general link to your blog.  


I pulled out the darling Unicorn from Reverse Confetti and created a sweet, whimsical scene with stamps and Confetti Cuts. I stamped the unicorn and tree from Unicorn Wishes with Black Licorice Hybrid ink and then used my copics to color them. I used the Unicorn Wishes Confetti Cuts to cut them out, quick and easy. I stamped a few of the stars from the set with Paver Red Premium Dye ink. 


I created my sweet little scene with a water color panel cut from the Documented Confetti Cuts and blended on some Distress Ink. I used some clean water to splatter on and give it some extra dimension. I also added a teeny strip of Paver Red scallops with the Edge Essentials Confetti Cut.  A scattering of sequins finished it off. 



here is a closer look at the RC product I used today.

Reverse Confetti July Sale

 

Hello Fetti Fans! Super excited to be posting today and sharing about the July Reverse Confetti Sale. While we are not having a release this month, Jen did not want to leave you hanging. This is the 3rd day of our Summer Sale Blog Hop. Exciting things are happening, RC is getting some new gorgeous warehouse space! To make room for the move and all the new products releasing in August.....Jen is giving you a deal. Check it out! Jen has all the details over on the RC Blog. 

I wanted to make something quick and simple today, for you. The Butterfly Dreams stamps and matching Butterfly Dreams Confetti Cuts always make stunning projects without having to try to hard. These really were simple to make, I went ahead and created a trio of thank-you notes. These are a 4.25 square card. Keeping the design the same and just changing out the colors, really helps streamline a project like this. It's mass producing, but adds some variety. 


I started with my watercolor panels. I smooshed on some Early Espresso Distress ink and then added some spaltter. I set it aside to dry. I reached for some Old Olive card stock and cut the pretty scalloped circle with the Circles 'n Scallops Confetti Cut.  I made it into a window, but running it through my die cut machine with the largest solid circle a second time. 

I made each card appear different by stamping the largest Butterfly Dreams stamp with three different Ombre ink colors by Hero Arts. Here is the pink one. 


and the green/aqua one


and finally the purple one. 

We thought it would be fun to share our Top Five favorite Reverse Confetti products with you. This was hard, really hard for me. There are so many products I truly love and reach for all the time. These 5 though, I can use anytime of the year and for all occassions. They are always within reach. 
My Top 5!
*click the graphics to shop the products.
The orginial, first Confetti Cut! I still reach for it all the time.
 The tag is a great size, and the banner piece, well, I love it! 

I am a fan of ALL the Dawn Machell stamps, but this one, well, Giraffe's are my favorite, so I love this. I love all the little extras included, too. It's adorable. 

Everyone needs a great all occasion sentiment set. This one is a it! 
Fabulous mix of fonts, lots of  different greetings and it has my all time favorite birthday sentiment. I love the size of it and that it is a linear stamp. 

If you have been following my blog for a while now, you will know how much I love these leaves. I use them all the time and in lots of different colors. They are just fun to tuck in anywhere.  

Ahhhh! Woodgrain and texture. There isn't much more to say. This is the only textured Confetti Cut available and I love it. It's also the same size as the fabulous Documented Confetti Cut. This little gem adds texture AND cuts out the rounded rectangle at the same time. It's perfect. 



Here are the graphics for the products I used on today's project.
These are two more of my favorites, too! 








Check out these two, today. They are sharing, too.
