Polka Dots and Stripes in Season

I went with lots of pattern, sparkle, and shine for this card! I can't believe I still had some Mint Macaron Glimmer Paper left over from this year's Sale-a-Bration. The sparkly strip was the perfect addition to this card.

#17 Mint and Melon

Today's sketch comes from December 2016:

 

Here's what I originally did:

Can you tell I love polka dots? I really really do. Thankfully I found some great polka dot papers in my scrap box to use for today's card. I also rediscovered some glimmer paper in the bottom of the the box. Yeah for a super fun polka-dotted sparkly card!

Medallion Thanks

Leftover card from my Sale-a-Bration stash. I resisted getting this stamp set, because... I have no idea. I love this image and the ability to mix and match colors and patterns. For this card, I figured out a little trick. After multiple failed attempts to line up the different pieces, I started with the darkest color. It was so much easier to see where to stamp the next layer. Once I got my medallion squared away, I added a fun scalloped piece underneath and a fun piece of glimmer paper. So sad that this stamp set and the glimmer paper is retired!
