We had such a busy weekend, it wasn't until this morning that I had time to create a couple of cards for this month's Papertrey Ink Blog Hop. We were away last month, and since this is one of my favorite blog hops I didn't want to miss it two months in a row. Here's the inspiration piece:
I'm a big fan of polka dots and have seen some really nice cards and planners for 2015 using gold polka dots so that's where I started.
I randomly stamped two sizes of polka dots from "Polka Dot Basics," and layered it on a sheet of metallic gold paper, and then onto a True Black card base. The die cut is from the Wonderful Words set, and I selectively stamped and embossed a part of the Happy Birthday sentiment from Alt&New's "Label Love."
For the second card, I used just one of the polka dot stamps, and a die cut from the new-to-me "Wet Paint Cuts."
This time I matted the polka dots onto True Black cardstock and then onto a Hawaiian Shores card. I'm guessing I'll find quite a bit of inspiration from the other entries this month, so I'm off to check them out.
