Circle Week - It's a Confetti Kind of World!

Teri here today, and I'm excited to kick off Circle week here on the GCD Studios blog! Today, I'm talking about itty bitty circles of color, specifically ones in confetti form! Confetti is so fun, so trendy right now and such a nifty way to use your patterned papers. Take a look at Pinterest and you'll find all kinds of pictures with confetti on them. It's so easy to make. All you need is a little bit of patterned paper, a couple small circle punches and the desire to punch, punch and punch a whole lot of confetti-sized circles! I punched about 200 (no lie!) small circles to use like confetti on this card.

 

The majority of those little circles went inside a small clear bag. I adhered the bag to the card and then made a frame from solid paper to frame it!

 

 The cool thing is the recipient can shake this card, and the confetti will move around. I took a minimalist approach with confetti for this card.

 

I only punched about 20 small circles for it. I arranged them so they would look like confetti falling down from the top of the card to the bottom.

 

 I love how even though the confetti circles are small, you still get a taste of a whole bunch of patterned papers on this card.
