Hello Sweet Friends! Sheri here with a Thank You card featuring the March 2022 Stamp of the Month! The stamp set is called Spotted and is FREE with any $65 order. This is a perfect set to create backgrounds or add texture to your cards. I LOVE polka dots so it has become a fast favorite.
Do you ever think about customizing your pattern paper? Well I took a piece of plain black & white stripped pattern paper and stamped the Solid Polka Dot stamp from the SOTM to create a more dramatic backdrop. Depending on where your focal image is placed, you can get away with just stamping around the outer edges of the paper. I think the bold polka dots add a huge impact to the design. What do you think? Hope you will consider giving this technique a try!
Now onto the card design. I stamped images from the Forever Loved and a butterfly from the Made New stamp sets with alcohol friendly ink and used copic markers to color them. Next I took the coordinating dies sets and cut all the images out. Don't have the dies, they can easily be fussy cut out. I then cut a rectangle strip to stamp the sentiment on and arrange all my stamped pieces. For embellishment I added a few rhinestones.
