Confetti Throwing Birthday Card

Today is my husband's birthday. His only request was to go see the new Deadpool movie that comes out Friday. So I designed his card around that theme. However, the man HATES glitter. I don't understand why. I mean so he finds it everywhere on his body and goes to work shining like a disco ball, but you would think that would teach him not to sit at my desk!

So I put out the feelers with fellow crafters to see if they had any ideas on how I could incorporate glitter. Mike with Dezinesbyem happened to let me know of this confetti flinger file he designed. He was a life saver and shared the file with me so thank you Mike!

I cut the base card out with a heavy duty Bazzill Cardstock.

Next I embossed the clouds on there with my Sizzix Big Shot, and cut the city scene out with more Bazzill Cardstock.

I used the trace and cut feature with my Cameo 3 to cut Deadpool out of vinyl. The black is glitter vinyl!

The inside of the card has the glitter wishes and unicorn for him as well as all sorts of nice goodies. Glitter, sequences, and cut glitter confetti!
