Thursday means it’s time for CONFETTI CAMERA…yay!!

A little bit about Confetti Camera…

In this weekly (Thursday) segment, one of the Confetti Crew designers will have the camera on both themselves, as a designer, and on their Reverse Confetti creations.

For this round each of our designers are CASE-ing a card created from one of the other Confetti Crew members.  In stamping terms, CASE means to Copy And Stamp Exactly.  The Crew is taking a previously made card and making it new.  This is a fun way to see what you can do with your stamps and, I think, that it helps you grow as a creative person as it requires you to think outside the box a bit.

A couple of things to note:

1) This segment will not “air” if there is a different post scheduled for that day, such as Sketch for You to Try on the 1st of each month or on a hop or sneak peek day.

2) Each designer will follow the same theme until we have featured every Confetti Crew Design Team Member (then it’s a new round with new questions/theme). To see previous Confetti Camera post, simply click on “Confetti Camera” under the categories link on our sidebar.

In the spotlight today is the super sweet and talented HEATHER PULVIRENTI…

Hi ‘Fetti Fans! Heather P. here today with my take on the current Confetti Camera “CASE It” theme.  For my project today, I’ve created a card using this adorable card by fellow DT member, Lisa Henke, as my inspiration. I loved how she used a soft color palette with a tiny pop of aqua/blue, and then set it off against the bright white background.  So pretty! 
 
To create my card, I started by die cutting a piece of cloud white cardstock with the Large Eyelet Cover Panel Confetti Cuts, then adhered it to a stone cardstock card base using foam tape.  I then used the Lacy Scallop Circles Confetti Cuts on a piece of cloud white cardstock, and adhered it to the card front with foam tape.  Next, I used the sentiment die from the Thanks Tag Confetti Cuts on a piece of medium gray cardstock, and adhered it to the bottom of the die cut circle.
 
I then stamped one of the flower images from Blooms ‘n Buds in gray ink, then went back and stamped the flower details in black.  The flower image was then die cut using the Blooms ‘n Buds Confetti Cuts.  Next, I used the Wheat Confetti Cuts on Stone and Cloud White cardstocks, trimmed off the bottom leaves, then adhered them behind the flower die cut.  The flower grouping was then adhered to the card front above the die cut sentiment.  To finish up, I embellished with light teal, matte enamel dots.
 
As part of the CASE theme challenge, we’re supposed to change three things on our card.  To make mine a little different than Lisa’s, I did the following: changed the card base from white to gray; used a die cut instead of stamping the sentiment; and only used a single circle die cut as my focal point instead of layering several die cuts together. 
 
Well, that wraps it up for me today, but be sure to come back tomorrow for more Reverse Confetti inspiration!
