MIM #199: Confetti Garland + CASology #131: Birthday

It's been a while since I played along with a PTI Make It Monday challenge, but with the arrival of a few new goodies and the CASology Week #131: Birthday challenge,  Betsy Veldman's confetti border technique was too fun to resist.


 


A few layers of the Phrase Play #12 die were cut from black cardstock and fun foam and adhered together with a layer of acetate. I don't have any of the confetti dies, so substituted sequins with glass beads to act as spacers.




A few more of the rainbow jewel tone sequins were place on the card base before the framed word was adhered over them.






I have no doubt my daughter will be snagging this one from the pile next time she needs a birthday card.

Thanks for stopping by,

Jacquie
