TSOL design team challenge

It's challenge time for the {stamps} of Life design team, and this month's theme is polka dots!

Please feel free to play along with us!

If you are playing along with the {stamps} of Life stamps or digital images please upload to the gallery on the site - HERE - with the keyword TSOLD14. Please link to one of our blogs so we can see your stuff!

I chose some coordinating prints from The Girls' Paperie, all of them full of dots!  A few aptly placed shiny adhesive brads are in keeping with the theme.

Check out what the rest of our team created:

Too late now!

I'm very excited to be attending Faith's retreat this weekend, and participating in a shoebox swap! They are so much fun!

My blog is so new that I don't think any of the participants would end up here, so I'm posting my card. I really hope that they will like it, although it is too late now because all the cardstock is cut and the supplies almost ready to go!

Notes:
Stamps: House of Haunts
Paper: Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie, Basic Black, retired DP
Inks: Stazon Black, Lovely Lilac, Marigold Morning, Only Orange
Accessories: brads
I made this a little narrower than the standard 4 1/4 so that I could get 3 across from a 12-inch square sheet. Lots of sponging and distress inking, using a mask and reverse mask. I just love these tent topper cards!
Now I'm off to grab some lunch and then get going on this Mary costume that I still can't believe I'm going to try to make today! ;) Hope to show it to you tomorrow! Thanks for peeking!
