Countdown to Confetti: The Lord's Strength

Welcome, 'Fetti Fans to Day 3 of the February Release for Reverse Confetti


That's right!
Reverse Confetti is doing monthly releases now, starting with Countdown to Confetti posts
on the 5th of each month and the New Release Blog Hop on the 8th.

This month is a fantastic release,
with four new stamps sets & seven new Confetti Cuts!

I'm especially excited about the stamp set we're introducing today,
as it's another faith-based set that's perfect for cards, scrapbooking and Bible Journaling.
It's called The Lord's Strength.

Here's my first card, which I made using the new Edger Confetti Cuts.

(By the way, I apologize for the poor photos of my next card.
I tried photographing it several times, but had a hard time getting it to turn out right!)


I started by stamping my sentiment on my aqua mist background in versamark
& heat embossing it in white.


For my mountains, I diecut some watercolour paper using the new Edgers Confetti Cuts.
I smooshed brown ink onto my watercolours paper.
For the peaks, I pressed the tips into versamark ink and heat embossed them in white.

For my second card, I was inspired by the current


I paired the new The Lord's Strength with the heart dies from Stamped Note Confetti Cuts.


I tried diecutting the hearts using felt, but the felt outlines didn't keep their shape,
so I used one felt heart as the inside of one of the hearts and cardstock for the outside of the other two.
The patterned paper is Crate Paper.


I diecut the bottom of the white cardtstock using one of the new Edgers Confetti Cuts.
