Confetti Carnival

What would be carnival without confetti ... especially for a 'carnival of madness' ATC at Craft Artwork ..... I definitely felt a bit mad after punching and glueing all the mini circles for the background (lol)
I stamped on the background (Kaisercraft), used lots of glitter (Stickles) ... another essential ingredient for carnival ... and added a little carnival girl with a carnival cake (Red Lead Paperworks)The words 'helau' and 'alaaf' are the famous carnival 'battle cries' in Germany alaaf being used in and I believe around Koeln and helau more on the other side of the Rhein.
Whether Helau or Alaaf - have a great weekend, Petra.

You make the most beautiful ATCs. I am in awe of your art and stamping abilities. Thank you for dropping by my blog. It was fun seeing what you have been working on.

Fantastic ATC, I love how you have started with the background being themed then carried the theme all the way through, how brilliant. So bright and cheerful it certainly reminds me of a carnival. Kezzy x

Oh my gosh I can't even imagine how long it took to create that background, Yes I think I would have gone mad too.
But oh worth every minute fantastic results Petra!
