Sweet Stampin' Challenge

Well, it's that time of the week again. Time for a new challenge over at Sweet Stampin'. This week we want to see your "SPOTS AND DOTS". We are sponsored by Crafty Ribbons and The Stamp Fairy. Now, I have to be honest... I thought this would be easy. It wasn't!! This is the second card I have made this year and the second one that I don't like (you'll see the other one on Monday). I really hope things improve otherwise it's not going to be a very creative year... On the upside though as I am now a signed up member of UIU 2012 I shopped in my stash and discovered a stamp with Oriental writing on it which I thought would be good for this. Please go and visit the Sweet Stampin blog and then in turn to each of my teamies and leave them some bloggy love. I know you're going to love what they've done with "Spots and Dots".

Your card is lovely, you are too hard on yourself. The colouring is cute, and the huge spotty paper is lovely. I love your choice of Stampfairy image. He's adorable. Annette xx

Hi Susan, well I think your card is super cute. I love the panda image and your papers are just perfect. I think we're all feeling a bit mojo-less at the moment (well I know I am) and it's a struggle to get back into the swing of things, but I'm sure it won't take long lol! Have a great weekend. Hugs, Denise x

Hi Susan, I also think it's a wonderful card. The image is just too cute and coloured so well. Love the clean lines of your card as well.

I totally get what you are saying about struggling with cards - I've only made three so far and all of them have been blooming hard work!! Hoping that, as I get back into the swing of it, they become easier.
