Having decided that 2011 was to be the year of the ufo, I dug out this one and had a confetti blast.
It is extremely time-consuming to do because of all the colour changing but I know if I persevere it will be lovely.

It WILL be worth the effort. Confetti is a pain in the backside but it does give a great effect once complete. Stick with it!!
