Seeing Spots!
What fun! This was such an easy challenge because the spots can be anywhere; ribbon, papers, flowers, images, or background! Go wild and have spots on everything!
My card has spotted DP, a spotted background treatment, and spotted stockings on the fun image.
The red ruffle was made from some shiny paper that came wrapped around a bouquet of flowers that my husband gave me. It was such a pretty color that I couldn't throw it away before trying to use it for something! I sewed it with the machine using a basting stitch, gathered it and sewed it behind the image panel.

More Spots!
I recently bought a few digital images from A Day For Daisies, and this is the first card I've made with them.
I used a gel pen to make the dotted Swiss pattern on the girls hat and dress. The cloud in the background was the result of a splotchy Copic marker! I had to cover the mess with opaque white marker and decided to turn it into a cloud! I swear that there isn't much you can't fix when you're making a card!
I continued the scallop theme from the trees by cutting out a frame with a scalloped Nestie, and trimmed the DP along the scalloped design as a border along the top. Even the rose petals have scalloped edges!

Hi Elaine...I love BOTH of these "spotty & dotty" cards! Your Mo card is precious! I love this image...she's such fun!! And your ADFD card is so stinkin' cute too! Such gorgeous coloring! I soooo need to get a couple of these darling images!! Hugs. Pat Frank
Wonderful cards, Elaine! I love your Big Whoop one! The colors and dotted papers are so cheerful and I love the ruffle and flowers, too! Fantastic coloring!
LOL That's funny that we both broke out the gel pen for dots this week. :-) Your cards are lovely Elaine. Whoopee girl looks so cute with all those stipling spots surrounding her. You did an awesome job on your card. Hugs!
P.S. Careful, those ADFD images are addictive. :-)
Both of your cards are so delightful, Elaine! I love how you've brought the spots into both of them. What a resourceful gal you are to repurpose the shiny paper from your bouquet of flowers. The bright red really pops the card. So fun to be on the DT with you...hugs...Barb <>< Oh, gasp!!! You have word verification for your moderation!!! I can never get these things right...hope this goes through!
Love both cards.. and I love how you spotted around the image, I would be so afraid of messing up, but you nailed it.. Looks great.
Hugs
Debbie
