PP541 Clean and Simple Polka Dots

 Happy Sunday, all!  Anne Marie is our Paper Players hostess this week with a CAS challenge, and it is true Anne Marie...I know how she likes polka dots....me too!

This challenge gave me a chance to use another new goodie from the SU catalog called Checks and Dots Embossing Folder:


Can you see that sweet little row of embossed dots?


I also used the colors from Hand Stamped Sentiments for my Pierced Blooms flowers:


and I added some Rainbow Glimmer paper centers, a Basic Borders stitched border and a sweet little Tailored Tags tag, stamped with a "hello" from the new Best Year set!  

I hope you'll play along with our CAS challenge and get out your polka dots!  Should be a fun one, and I can't wait to see what you create!  Be sure to share it with us at the Paper Players blog!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!

I love these dies. The polka dot embossing folder add interesting texture without taking away from the flowers. Thanks for joining our challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

Such a sweet, cheerful hello card! I love all the stitched elements and the polka dot embossing folder is just right! I tried to use this folder for my card too but didn't figure out how to use it until I already had it all adhered! lol! Have a great week!

LeAnne, I love those beautiful bold flowers and the subtle large polka dot background. The stitching and the embossing add wonderful texture without drawing the eye away for the focal element. Fabulous use of the colors
