SUO114 Happy Birthday "Dots, Dots and More Dots"

Hi Stampers!   

It’s time for the new SUO114 “Dots, Dots and More Dots" Challenge and I decided to enhance a piece of Lullaby Designer Series Paper (DSP) with additional dots.

This card also incorporates Seize the Birthday 01/01/15 Challenge (the toppings option is "Party" and all of the dots look like a “Party” to me :-))

I hope you will find the time to check the rest of the Design Team at all of the challenge sites and come join in on the fun!

To create this card:

Create the circle stencils using sticky note paper and the 1 ¾” and 1” Circle Punches.

Using Sponge Daubers with Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Crisp Cantaloupe Classic Ink, sponge additional circles onto the piece of Lullaby DSP and add additional “dots” with the large splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge using Coastal Cabana Classic Ink. 

Trim the DSP panel and mount onto a piece of Calypso Coral cardstock, trim and mount onto a piece of Bermuda Bay card base.

Stamp the sentiment using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink onto the card front.

Ink the flowers from the hostess set, Bloom with Hope with Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink and stamp twice onto Whisper White cardstock.

Use an AquaPainter™ with Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral Classic Ink to color the flowers.   Fussy-cut the flowers and mount onto the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.

Add the ½ White Tea Lace Paper Doily to the lower half of the card front and add a strip of Bermuda Bay cardstock to cover the edge of the doily.

Create the Bermuda Bay bow using the new Bow Builder Punch and add the Calypso Coral button to the center (use a small silver of Bermuda Bay cardstock to mimic thread in the button).  

Mount the bow to the card front to finish off the card.
