it's POLKA TIME!!!
or rather...polka dot time...for the new CAARDVARKS challenge, that is. make a *new* card, with polka dots on it, and post it to the 'varks flickr group by midnight, february 3, 2009. it's easy and fun! see??!
(b&w glossy polkadot cardstock is from the back of a "prima flourish" package--hey for what those babies cost, i'm usin' EVERYTHING! patterned paper: dcwv, sei; chipboard letters: target $-spot; metal letter brads: queen&co; felt ribbon: k&co; flower-shaped journaling card: making memories; flowers: doodlebug, creative imaginations, prima; brads: bazzill, autumn leaves; epoxy stickers: love elsie, sandylion other: colorbox inks, foam tape, zig pen)
This is fabulicious Lauren! (So good I had to make up a word) I think you win the prize for most polka dots used and yet it all works perfectly! If I tried to use that much pattern it would end up a hot mess! LOVE this!
