cas-ual fridays 56

Yey it’s Friday! And only two more weeks until schools break up here in Scotland :) We are well into the swing of sports days and end of term activities. The olympic torch is coming through next week and the whole school is going to see that. Then there’s the Leaver’s Dance and tearful end of year church service to come – my daughter is leaving Primary school to join her older brother in High School in the autumn. How did they get so big so quick?
Anyway, getting back on topic it’s time for this weeks CAS-ual Fridays challenge and we are going dotty! Not the eccentric old lady kind but spots and polka dots! Our Sponsor this week is DeNami Design.

I think this design is proving to be a “go to” one for me – a patterned paper strip with a white panel raised above leaving a lovely canvas for embellishment.

 I stamped and embossed the circle scallop from DeNami Design and coloured them with markers adding rhinestones that I’d coloured with my markers too. A simple sentiment and a couple of die cut leaves finished it off.

    What a beautiful use of those scalloped circles. I love this design and wouldn’t mind if you used it every time! The patterned strip adds such a great detail.

    Hi Debby! I’m playing along at Moxie Fab World’s “out and about” post HERE, and your blog was chosen for me by random.org. LOVE this wonderful card, especially the purple and aqua together…..probably would never have tried that on my own, but I will now :)) Thanks!
