Spotty Dotty good times at MDUC this week!!

Hello Happy Bloggers,
I hope the day finds you well.
It is Sunday in Australia
and that means that it's time
for a new challenge over at
Magnolia Down Under
This week, we'd like to see spots!!!
Spots, blots and polka dots.
(do you think I have a future in nursery rhymes?)


I've used the darling Ladybug Tilda from the Raising the Ceiling collection. This was stamped for me by Sue, though I did end up buying the stamp, why mussy it up when I've already got something stamped and waiting for me, lol. She's coloured in distress inks and shadowed with Prisma marker with a touch or two of white Sakura gel pen. The main DP is graphic 45 with the little strip being K & Co. The punch is MS, pearls are Kaiser ,Stickled in Diamond and the laces are from my stash, distressing done with Old Paper ink and scissors. The sewing machine and I are doing quite well. She has asked me to keep a better eye on her bobbin and I agreed, it's part of our couples counceling. I'll stop jamming the bobbin with cardstock chunklets if she resists the urge to rip up my papers. Fair enough, right?


I've taken on the most strenous challenge a gal could face, a clean and simple layout from Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge. I want to pile mountains of flowers on this card, but I was so impressed by my own colouring with this one, I went looking for something to showcase it with, so here we are, a perfect match, and yes, I just tooted my own horn.

Okay, so I lost the battle with the embellies after all.
Who can resist a pile of flowers on their card,
not me, that's obvious....

So I will pop this in over at Midnigh Madness
PaperPlay Challenges is hosting a flowers and sparkle challenge, Creative Inspirations is hosting a stitching challenge and Charisma Cardz is hosting a flowers challenge.

When you craft this week,
remember to use some spots and dots
so you can enter your creation at
Magnolia Down Unda!!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend my lovelies,
Stephanne
