SC 086/13: STAMPIN' UP! POLKA-DOT PIECES THANK YOU CARD

I was delighted to be asked to be a Guest Designer at Sunny Challenges & Creations for their challenge going live today:


If you're a regular follower of my blog, you probably know that I seldom deviate from a rectangular card - sometimes I switch from a top-fold to a side-fold, but the occasional square card is about as adventurous as I get! 

I enjoyed this challenge, as I've just got my hot little hands on Stampin' Up!'s Deco Labels Collection framelits - and they are GORGEOUS.  My card base was made with the largest of the four dies, and it makes a rather tiny card - oh-so-sweet.  This card is only 10 cm x 9 cm in size.






Stamps: Polka-Dot Pieces, Summer Silhouettes, Itty Bitty Banners
Card: Smoky Slate, Daffodil Delight, Whisper White
DSP: Smoky Slate Patterns DSP
Ink: Smoky Slate and Basic Gray stampin' pads, Daffodil Delight stampin' pad and marker
Other: Deco Labels Collection framelits, Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder, Bird Builder punch, Bitty Banners framelits, sponge daubers, Multipurpose liquid glue
 
 
Make sure you take a look at the Design Team's samples, for inspiration.  We'd love to see your 'shaped' creations.
