This week it’s Vanessa making sure we all go dotty and see spots before our eyes with the new Daring Cardmakers challenge.
Yes, it’s spots all the way because she wants Polka Dots all over our cards.
The dare has provided me with the opportunity of doing a birthday card that my brother has asked me to make for his wife’s birthday in January…..yah….I’m ahead of myself for once!

I’ve stamped part of the images onto the circles and heat embossed them with clear embossing powder and I’ve then gone over them with Tattered Rose and Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
They were mounted on 3D foam and I’ve added a little bit of copper sparkle to each of the flower heads.

that's a corker Sue - really unusual way of using the stamps and I love it!(are the stamps Penny Black? I got some similar ones)
A beautiful card Sue - love how you carried the theme through with the images too. Those stamps are beautiful.
