Count Down to Confetti | Day One

I am delighted and honored to be a "fetti friend", guest designing along with the talented Reverse Confetti team!  This release is phenomenal, and I hope you enjoy the next few days as we Countdown to Confetti!

Today is day one of the countdown and we are featuring the Multi-Step Cacti, Background Builder, and This Says it All stamp sets.  Along the way, you'll also see some stand alone Confetti Cuts including Three Tags, and several new Cover Panels: Cloudy Day, Cross Tiles, and the one on my first card today, Pointed:

I first die cut a white panel with the Pointed Cover Panel.  Next, I stamped the solid stripes from the Background Builder stamp set.  Then I stamped the circles from the same set.

I stamped the Multi-Step Cacti using two shades of green, and embossed one of the layers in white on each of the cacti.  The pots were colored with Copic Markers and the tops were treated with a coat of Nuvo Crystal Drops in Honey Gold.  All of the images were die cut using the Multi-Step Cacti Confetti Cuts.

The sentiments from This Says it All were white heat embossed and colored in with a gold gel pen.  A few Nuvo drops were added to each little vignette to complete the look.

My second card today features the Background Builder set, Cross Tiles Cover Panel, and This Says it All sentiment set:

I first stamped out several circles from the Background Builder set in navy, coral, and aqua.  The aqua circles are a combination of the solid circle and the dotted circle stamps from the set.  Using the same ink colors, I swiped the ink onto white cardstock and cut it out with the Cross Tiles Cover Panel.  I arranged the inside pieces in a pattern on top of the circle background.  Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from the This Says It All stamp set.
