Hello Crafty Friends!
So excited that this is the first of 4 days of peaks at the new Release from Reverse Confetti!!I was so excited when I asked to be a 'Fetti Friend for July/ August and was blown away when this release reached me - so much spectacular variety, there's something for everyone! Stay tuned at the end of the post for further inspiration and a chance to win prizes!!
Elegance overload with today's Sets - Elegant Florals and The Most Beauty. I just had to do my favorite combo for elegant cards - white on craft. The fact that the Elegant Florals set has both solid and outlined images makes it super versatile! I just had to use all of the images in this card!
As well as those delicate florals,I totally swooned over the sentiments in The Most Beauty set - I know I'll be reaching for these so often!

This card uses the super innovative technique of one Jennifer McGuire - "Stamp-fold card designs" where the stamps are layered & adhered to form the front panel of the card. To begin I stamped the floral images in versamark ink on Kraft card and white embossed them. I also stamped a sentiment from the The Most Beauty set. I die cut them all out and cut the sentiment with a deckled rectangle and white embossed.
I layered the pieces as per Jennifer's video and adhered them together with liquid adhesive where they overlapped. Once dry, I scored a small edge along the Left hand side of the flowers and adhered this small scored 'flap' to a card base.
To the 2nd flap of the card, I stamped in versafine ink another of those beautiful sentiments (they coordinate so well together too!!) and another of the solid flower sprays whic I cut out to adhere under the sentiment.
I added some water droplets.
This 2nd flap, then open to the inside of the card where the sender of the card can add their own message.
These pretty, delicate florals are such a great addition to my stash.
So much more inspiration for this set is on the following blogs - make sure you visit and give them some crafty love!! Leave a comment for each designer and be in the running for a $15US voucher!! (announced on the RC facebook page)
