Hey y'all! It's day 2 of the Mama Elephant November release highlights! I know this one caught your eye last week on the Mama Elephant blog:) It's the new set, Confetti!
This set has really jumped to the top of my list of favorite sets to use! Those sequin stamps are fun, fun, fun:) For my card, I wanted the look of a vellum packet filled will sequins being sprinkled all over my card. First I used the Embellished Tag die to cut a vellum tag. Then I traced the tag in pencil onto the card front. That way I was sure to get all my sequins "inside" the tag. I stamped a plethora of sequins (masking some of them) and colored them with various cheery Copic colors. I decided to stitch the vellum to the card since there was no good way to disguise the adhesive. I just stitched around the stitch marks already on the tag!
Thanks
