Sketch Challenge 29: DOTS!



Hello, my friends! Welcome to another round of the Limelight Sketch and Product Challenge! Hope you are ready to bring out those dots, because that's what we are focusing on this week! Polka dotted papers, Embossed dots, Pearls, Rhinestones, Pebbles, etc.! But don't forget... if you do NOT have any dots, be creative when interpreting the theme, or just omit the dots altogether! We still want you to play along! :)

For my card, I chose to use the NEW Pink Paislee Twilight collection. I started by choosing some dotted paper, Eclipse and a fun accent color, the deep purple side of the Sunset paper (these are all double-sided). For the sentiment, I chose to use the Pink Paislee Expressions Glitter Alphabet in Licorice. These are SO, SO cool. I cannot stress that enough! They are black chipboard letters COVERED in pretty silver glitter! They stick onto the paper SO well (sometimes an issue with alphabet stickers), and they are SO sparkly! As a matter of fact, I sprayed my Basic Black (SU) cardstock with some Concrete Shimmerz Spritz to match the glittery look of the alphas! Three Wine Rhinestones at the bottom completed the look, and added to the dark handsomeness of the card. :)

Here is an up-close view of the spritzed background so you can see the glittery beauty of the Shimmerz Spritz!


Okay, now it's your turn...
