HOW TO PLAY: This challenge is as simple as putting a frame on your card. Yes, just that easy! I mentioned the main image but you could frame up the sentiment as well. Up to you!
On to my creation
I was going through some of my pre-stamped images and found these little die cut flowers from the Abundant Petals stamp set, using the coordinating Die Set as well. And, after I "auditioned" them together, I decided that I had just the right combination to create a bit of color in a card corner. So, I colored it up using Copic markers - R81, R83, RV00, and RV0000 for the petals and YG00, YG23, and YG25 for the leaves.
I took some decorative paper and created a frame by lining up two stitched rectangle dies and, using a Post-It Note, situated and tacked them down on the paper before running them through my die cut machine.
After I cut out the frame, I cut another panel using only the largest die out of this cream and green graph style paper so that it would layer up perfectly. I used the 'Thank You' sentiment from the set and heat embossed it with gold detail powder.
After I was done with my card, I wondered if it looked a little too plain? So, I did dig into my sequin stash and added a little bit of bling. Not sure which one I like better. What do YOU think?
Now it's your turn Creative Confetti fans! Let's see how you frame up your image to create a design splash! After you're done creating, don't forget to link up your creation using the linky below.

Julie, what beautiful cards today!! I really like both versions and think either of them work well together! The blossoms are colored beautifully and I love the detail gold embossing. Bling never hurts, but your cards shine on their own! Thank you so much for a fun challenge!

Bling definitely! Cards are beautiful but to me bling adds to it.
With and without bling it's a beautiful card Julie, but I prefer the one with the litle extra bling.
Thank you so much for your post, it's a lovely challenge, and have a wonderful week.
