Reverse Confetti July New Release Creative Hop | S'more fun with you

Today is the day! The Reverse Confetti July Release is now available for purchase! We're celebrating with a hop! You should have arrived from Justine Hovey's blog, if not, you'll want to start at the beginning of the hop which is the Reverse Confetti blog!

What are some of your favorites from this month's release?! One of my favorites is the Greatest Adventure set. Those woodland creatures make me smile!

Okay, let's start at the bottom and work our way to the top! I used the fun Geo Panel in Sand cardstock. I cut a Dashed Line Tag from the new Cue the Confetti 6x6 Paper pad.

Do you like my modern day s'more kit? I popped graham crackers in the glassine bag. I only like marshmallows in rice krispies treats so there you go. Thanks to D for that input while we were at Target.

I added a bunch of the images from the Greatest Adventure set. The images have been colored with alcohol markers. The cloud is from the Cool Friend set that I used yesterday.

The tree confetti cut from the Greatest Adventure set has been cut from Avocado cardstock. Can you tell that both the tag and the sentiment are on foam dimensionals?

I do have another project to share, I inked up the Pattern Builder set:

I used the following ink colors:

Sunshine • Pistachio • Iced Aqua

I trimmed down the stamped panel a smidge and mounted an A2 sized Sunshine cardstock base.

The sentiment is form The Most Beauty set. I finished off my card with some enamel dots.

That's it for me! I can't wait to hop around and see how everyone else was inspired. Now it is time for you to hop over to my teamie, Kathy Schweinfurth!

Stone • Iced Aqua • Avocado

I had to whip up a card using the negative panel:

(happiest wishes for you)

I mounted the die cut panel onto the Iced Aqua panel and slipped it into my Mini MISTI. I stamped the Mod Floral for the perfect placement.

Here's a project that uses the July My Monthly Hero kit:

I went with a retro look with the soft aqua and soft pink colors. I absolutely love the sentiment's play on words. I'm definitely a Clean + Simple card designer at heart, all that white space makes me a happy crafter.

I also whipped up a card using the CM295 Hay Party Animals set:

Those guys crack me up! I am loving the CG747 County Fair Bold Prints! I used a layer of vellum in between the animals and the County Fair panel so that there was a softer panel underneath the animals.
