Hey there, ‘Fetti Fans!

Welcome to the third and final day of our sneak peeks, also known as THE COUNTDOWN TO CONFETTI!  Tonight at midnight EST we will releasing 5 new stamp sets and our first 2 Confetti Cuts!

Before I get too far into this post, I want to say THANK YOU for all the love and support that you have given Reverse Confetti over the this first six months.  It’s truly been an amazing adventure so far and I look forward to growing more with YOU!

. . . . .

It’s release week!  Here’s what’s going on…

There are literally just hours left to leave your comments on sneak posts and on our Facebook page (direct link to comment thread HERE).  The winners from the blog comments and Facebook comments will be posted here on the Reverse Confetti blog and on Facebook today at 5pm EST.  Good Luck!

. . . . .

As you can imagine, I’m always on the lookout for trends and unique concepts to bring to Reverse Confetti as stamps and dies; however, there is something to be said for “the basics.”  That’s one of the reasons that we started with tag dies.  Those are one of the things that I feel is a staple item that every paper crafter should have in their stash.  Another thing on that list that I feel is a must-have, or staple item, is a good BIG sentiment set and that is just what we are revealing and previewing today.

Introducing LOTS TO SAY…

. . . . .

There are two members of the Confetti Crew that recently welcomed lil’ ones into their families and these are the cards that I made for them using the soon to be released sets,  LOTS TO SAY and SO STRIPEY.

For Val, the first time grandma…

I used most of the same elements and colors to create this one for new mama (again!), Laurie.  Can you see the TAG ME Confetti Cuts panels that I snuck in there?  They are the white panels behind the navy circle…

The onsie was cut out with my Silhouette and then stamped in VersaMark with the even straight lines from SO STRIPEY.

. . . . .

I’m constantly reaching for a notecard to say something to someone.  Sometimes it’s just to let my daughter’s teacher know that she will be going home with a friends or to tell my super sweet neighbor thanks for bringing me a bowl of soup (yes, I have a neighbor that does that!!).  For these notes, and many others I created some notecards for the “just a note to say…” sentiment.  This is also a quick and easy gift that people will love and use.  This set is actually headed over to that sweet neighbor of mine, so I packaged them with envelopes in a clear box (purchased online) with a TAG ME Confetti Cuts die…

The word “notecards” was stamped with (previously released) LIGHTHEARTED LETTERS in alternating ink colors to coordinate with the pattern paper.

 . . . . .

There is so much more inspiration to see using all these stamps and dies that are releasing TONIGHT!

Hello ‘Fetti Fans!

Welcome to our first day of sneak peeks, or as we like to call them THE COUNTDOWN TO CONFETTI.  On Friday, November 8th, we will be releasing FIVE new stamp sets, as well as TWO Confetti Cuts (our BRAND NEW line of wafer-thin dies).  I am super excited about this release and just know that you will love all that we have in store for you this week!  Here’s our schedule…

As a reminder, all of our releases will happen on the 8th of the month…just not every month.  We will release new product every other month.  We’ll still be hopping on the 8th, whether there is a release or not.  Just remember, “Eight is Great!”

In addition to having a chance to win just by leaving a comment on the sneak peek posts, we are also running a Facebook promotion (starting at 9am CST today).  After you are done checking out the sneak peeks, head on over to OUR FACEBOOK PAGE and look for this red and white striped graphic…

  Simply leave a comment under the graphic.  One person that comments on the graphic by 1pm EST on November 7th will be randomly chosen to win a $15 gift certificate to the Reverse Confetti store.  Winner announced here on the blog, with the comment winner, as well as on Facebook.

. . . . .

This is a long post. Grab that cuppa joe, sit back, relax and enjoy all the new Reverse Confetti inspiration!

It’s no secret, the holidays are just around the corner.  There are cards, gifties and decorations to be made along with family meals and cookies for friends and neighbors.  It truly is the most wonderful time of the year!

. . . . .

Today we are introducing not only one or two, but THREE new stamp sets and our TWO new CONFETTI CUTS (our very own line of exclusive wafer-thin dies) that are just perfect for all of your holiday creations (and more!).

Some of my most favorite things to make, not only during the holidays, but throughout the year are tags.  So, when it came time to design our very first CONFETTI CUTS, I knew that we needed a standout die set that could be used on lots and lots of projects and gifties.  With this in mind, TAG ME, a set of 5 dies was born…

This die set features large and small flag-ended dies.  The larger tag has a debossing detail line and each have a coordinating circle to go around the hole on the top portion of the die.  The flag-ended banner is the perfect place to stamp many of your Reverse Confetti sentiments, including these fun and festive ones from the new set, TINSEL ‘N TRIM which is designed for all your holiday tags and scrapbooking pages, including pocket scrapping (i.e. Project Life) and daily albums (i.e. December Daily)…

Detail shot of the debossing line and the stripes from the new stamp set, SO STRIPEY…

Dress up that hole on top with a coordinating die cut circle…

. . . . .

In addition to making tags, I also love making little gifties that can be given to friends, family, teachers and hostesses.

For those gifties and more, I created the SWEET TREAT TENT Confetti Cuts die…

Are you twisting your neck and wondering why this doesn’t quite look like a tent?  It’s because with this die, you CUT TWO, fold on the bottom scored (debossed) lines and adhere together like so…

This die also has a tab at the top.  You have a couple of options for using this tab when you have two of these cut…

1. Fold each tab inward and adhere tabs together.

2. Cut ONE tab off and adhere other tab to the inside top of opposite Sweet Treat Tent die cut.

3. Cut BOTH tabs off and either adhere top of SWEET TREAT TENT die cuts together with adhesive or tie together with ribbon, twine, etc.

The SWEET TREAT TENT Confetti Cuts die is made to perfectly hold snack size treats, like the M&Ms shown above and other goodies, too!  Here are few more pics of these gifties that I have made for a few friends using TINSEL ‘N TRIM, (the previously released, WHOLE LOTTA DOTS) and the new TAG ME Confetti Cuts…

. . . . .

The holiday fun isn’t quite over for today…

As I have mentioned in several posts before, I love being able to offer maximum versatility in our products.  Our KEY WORDS COLLECTION is a shining example of being able to get the most from your Reverse Confetti stamps.  This collection features one “key word” that can be mixed and matched with other words in the set to create a wide variety of sentiments.  Our holiday themed KEY WORD COLLECTION set is BRING ON THE MERRY…

Here is a sampling of how you can mix and match these stamps to create some wonderful holiday sentiments…

And, speaking of versatility, the SWEET TREAT TENT can be used for more than just a treat holder (just wait until you see what the Confetti Crew has done with it)!  Here I created a mini album using BRING ON THE MERRY and this Confetti Cuts die by cutting several pieces out and binding them together…

Detail of cover, numbers from LIGHTHEARTED LETTERS (previously released) embossed on punched circles…

SO STRIPEY stamped on the binding…

I created embellished cards to go on the “pages.”  Not all adhered, since I want to wait until I have all the pictures from the holidays to include with them.

“YUM” created with LIGHTHEARTED LETTERS and stripes from SO STRIPEY…

Tree created from polka dots chevrons from ARROWS ‘N ELEMENTS (previously released)…

There is so much more inspiration to see using all these stamps and dies that are releasing on Friday, November 8th!  Check out the Confetti Crew & Friends’ posts.
