Make it Monday #155: Make Your Own Confetti!

This week at Papertrey Ink the challenge is to use your dies and create your own confetti. I really wanted to use my new Phrase Play die,  so I made some confetti from my sun and clouds Heart 2 Heart dies and made a shaker card, using the phrase,  You are my sunshine. I used my Wink of Stella pen on the clouds and suns. I was going to use a scalloped border around the edge but it wouldn't quite cover the foam tape so I just made a simple frame from Aqua Mist card stock. I'm still thinking on how else I can do that.

Make it Monday: Take Two

This is my second card this week for the Make It Monday challenge for Papertrey Ink.. I felt that my first card didn't have enough texture, which was part of the challenge, so I decided to make another card. For this one I used the woodgrain impression plate with the Doodlie-Do stamp set and dies. I inlaid the die cuts and outlined everything with my Wink Of Stella.
ETA: I forgot to mention that I used the new button stacks dies to cut the yellowcenters in the flowers . I think they fit pretty well.

Make it Monday, One Layer Card

Fun challenge at Papertrey Ink this week. I don't remember ever making a one layer card before. This is also the first time I have used a multi-step stamp set. I really love this new anniversary set,  Bold Bouquet. I also added some Wink of Stella to the dots in the flower centers and to the sentiment.
