Countdown to Confetti - Reverse Confetti Day 2

Hello Fetti Fans! Welcome to our second day of our countdown to the new release! Today we showcase Butterfly Wreath and So Very Lovely.  I have also used the Stitched Scallopes Cover Die (told you it would become a fave of mine!), the Oh My Heart Cover Panel and the 6x6 Sweet as Sugar Paper Pad.
You can shop all your Reverse Confetti goodness here (new release is available on the 8th)

Don't forget there's a chance to win if you comment on each post from the team during the Countdown To Confetti days! There are TWO $15 prizes up for grabs this release:  1 for blog commenters and 1 for Facebook commenters.  So leave those comments and make sure to check the Reverse Confetti Facebook page too!   See the full list at the end of my post.
The colouring for my Butterfly Wreath was somewhat of an experiment! I white embossed the stamp image on white card and then shaded the image with Distress Oxide Inks Victorian Velvet and Spun Sugar. I then die cut the images and then added more colour and definition with my Copic markers (colouring over the top of my Oxide Inks V12, RV95, BV02, BV04). I love the effect!
I've used the Thanks Confetti Cut die and a little sentiment from the So Very Lovely sentiment set. The Stitched Scallops die is a perfect background for both traditional and modern style cards!!

For my second card, I have used the Oh My Heart Cover Panel to cut a pieces from a sheet of the Sweet as Sugar Paper Pad. I also cut 2 more pieces from white and red coloured paper. I then layered these pieces together, slightly offsetting them and adhered to a white cardbase.
I stamped and white embossed a number of the sentiments from the So Very Lovely set and adhered them in strips down the front of the card. A quick card, but so effective and visually, all the repetition created interest.
Don't forget to leave all the team comments for a chance to win.
Here's the full list - enjoy!
