My Sweet Petunia (Misti) with Reverse Confetti Hop

March 20, 2018
Hey Chickie!
It is time for another hop, and today My Sweet Petunia is hopping with Reverse Confetti. 
Before I continue I should mention that not only will you see some fabulous cards, we have prizes too.
We will choose two lucky commenter's from the hop to win one of two prizes: a $60.00 shopping spree at My Sweet Petunia or a $60.00 shopping spree at Reverse Confetti. Everyone who comments on all the blog posts will be entered to win. You must leave your comments no later than Sunday, March 25th, at 11:59 PM Central time, and the winners will be announced on Tuesday March 27th, on the Reverse Confetti and My Sweet Petunia blogs.

On to my card. I am using my Mini Misti for this card and the Carton Cuties Stamp and Die Set.

I decided I would use the Chickie stamp for my card. In my Misti I set the stamps up on a piece of left-over card stock, first stamping the egg carton in distress hickory smoke . 
 I then die cut the Chickie and the egg pieces, and die cut them, colouring the egg with yellow and orange markers. The eggs I stamped using archival inks in orange and pink.
 I wanted a frame for my design, so I die cut the piece from co-ordinating cardstock. 
 Then continued with the Chickie and egg I wanted for the inside of my card, along with the sentiment piece for the inside, which is the left-over from making the frame.
I stamped the sentiment on the egg carton using archival purple ink. 
 This is the inside of my card. I just love the colours.
For my second card I used my Original Misti and the Bear Hug Stamp and Die set.

I couldn't make up my mind as to the colours of the bears, so I did one in each colour.
 I used my traditional watercolours to paint the bears above, and
 distress markers and Zig brushes to paint this, along with the bear below, which I did for the inside of my card.

I decided I liked the grey, so that is what I went with.
This is my finished card. I wanted it clean and simple, so I did not even add any sequins!! I did add Wink of Stella to their noses.
Just for you
 And the inside ...
I hope you have enjoyed the cards I made as much as I enjoyed making them. Now on to the rest of the hop. 

You should have arrived here from Tricia's blog, and the next blog you visit will be Deanne's blog.

If you are lost, following is a list with links of all who are participating in this hop. 

Have fun!

    Your first card is so cheerful, I just love it.
    That's a cute set, too. And the koalas are sweet.
    Always reminds me of my once in a lifetime trip
