2012 : CAPTURED TUTORIAL WITH LISA TRUESDELL : CONFETTI CARD

Good morning!! My 2012 : Captured class for December went up yesterday, and this month, it's all using what you love in your Project Life album. My confetti addiction is no secret, so I thought it would be fun to show you how to create a confetti card to add to your album. 

(supplies - patterned paper - Simple Stories; vellum - Studio Calico; happy sticker - Pebbles; alphabet - Studio Calico; washi tape - Freckled Fawn; date stamp - Studio Calico; ink - StazOn)

First, gather your supplies. You'll need a piece of 3x4in piece of patterned paper, a 3x4in piece of vellum or transparency, washi tape and confetti or sequins. 

I usually just stitch around the outside of my confetti pockets, so I wanted to share a no sew version today. Line your vellum up over your patterned paper and run the washi along the edges. Be sure to leave enough on the outside of the paper so that you can bend it around to the back.

Once you have three edges taped, add your confetti. I used a mix of punched paper and sequins.

Add the last piece of washi tape finish off your confetti card with a sentiment or embellishments! 

I can't wait to see your confetti cards - link me up in the comments if you make one! -Lisa
