PTI Make it Monday 155 ~ Create your own confetti with Papertrey Ink dies

I bought the very first PTI Make it Market Kit "Luxe Letterpress" this month, I love it, thanks Betsy for putting this fun and elegant kit together.

So this week at 

PTI Make it Monday 155 is create your own confetti with Papertry Ink dies, since my first card from this kit is going to my brother and sister-in-law wedding anniversary, a tiny bag of confetti is just perfect for the couple.

Here's the card



I am using PTI Pink Blush cardstock and the big circles are from the same cardstock too.



the super fine gold tape in the kit is so fun, I used t to go round the center piece.



gold sequins and gold sticker back paper I used to cut out the tiny stars are both come with the kit



Ok, now the confetti part.....



I do have a lot of PTI cover plate where Danielle used to die cut her confetti, but uh..... I have PTI dies pile up like mountain and I am not so organized you know, so..... I just grab what comes to me first.... you'll never guess what I used, LOL!

This!!!!








 and XOXO borders die to cut the smaller circles


throw in some gold sequins and put them all in a tiny glassin bag, my card and matching confetti is ready to go.....

Wow, wow, WOW! This is just jaw-dropping, Kirsty! I loved that letterpress kit, too...but refrained from getting it. You are making me regret that decision! LOVE your pink and gold combo here and love your card design. Such a beautiful use of the sequins and stars, and that thin gold foil tape is spectacular. Really love your bag of confetti, too. So perfect for a wedding anniversary!
