Hello... i'm late i'm late.... for a very important date..!!!
I hope all Paperbabe fans managed to catch Kim on Hochanda on Friday 2nd February
showcasing the new *Wonderland* themed templates and stamps
ALL available to purchase in the Paperbabe Store .. YAY..!!
*****
But for now it's all about *Dots* over on the Paperbabe Challenge #66
and for the next fortnight we would like to see you get a little dotty.
Here's a quick card I made in a style that I really struggle to create..
Using the dots stencils I created backgrounds, blending candied apple oxides
through the stencils onto hammered card and then using up the ink by spritzing and
then running them through an embossing machine to transfer those left overs.
Fibreboard embellishments and extras were coloured using posca pens.
Stamping the word *Because* onto the dotty background stamp also
included in the stamp set I heat embossed in white. and cut down to size.
Layering up those embellishments I printed out a dotty sentiment.
Flat back pearls embellish the substrates with glossy accents
applied on top to bring those elements to life.
As Valentines day looms this would make a super card
or even just a note to say how much someone means to you!!
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend
what ever you are up too..
Take Care & Stay Safe
Creative wishes
Tracey xx

Hee hee oh yes.. it certainly made me feel that way trying to construct it x

I love your dotty Valentine's card Tracey! Great design!
Love the technique you used for the dotty stencilled background and great to use up the ink. Such a gorgeous 'dotty' card and such a fun sentiment too x
It is so beautiful, dear Tracey,- I love your dots, looking so perfect all. I have to admit I did not understand how you made it, maybe because my stomach is not behaving today :-( But I love your sweet card,- it is adorable!!
Big hugs from Dorthe- to you dear xx
I have to say, anything with dots is good as far as I'm concerned. Love your card and the great sentiment. Happy crafty week, Angela xXx
Beautiful card, Tracey. Lovely and original. Thank you for the instructions and the inspiration. Kisses, my friend.
Thank you Lozzy, red and white is a cake and custard combination hee hee xx
Thank you Alison x
Thank you very much, it was a great way to make use of those different sized polka dot stencils and I hate letting anything go to wastes, especially ink hee hee!! x
So sad to hear you are not feeling too well Dorthe but i'm glad you came over to visit. My card was simply created using different sized dots stencils for the background and transferring ink from them by running the stencil through a big shot. I should have shown all the background pieces I created and the choices I had to choose from, it may have explained it all a little easier. Hope you are feeling better much better soon xx
Thank you very much Angela, It's amazing how many people have said they love dots xx
Happy you like it Mia, wishing you a very creative week x
I love this Tracey, so crisp and clean and what a fun sentiment xx
Love this fun card Tracey! Hugs, Chrisx
Aww Thanks Sue, the advantages of a labelling machine :)) xx
So glad & Thank you Chris xx
