“Dots of Giggles!”
Oh my gosh! I found a bit of time to check out the featured stamper challenge at SCS this afternoon (FS84), and ended up discovering a super-simple card style! C’mon, admit it … we can always use a quick & simple card style to whip up in just a few minutes. I just had to play, since it’s based on a card by another Texas teacher, SCS’s Lazy Lizard! Congrats, Liz!
The card base was cut to a 6.5″ square & folded in half. Don’t you love it when you don’t have to mess with a lot of measurements? Next, I found the long rectangle Spellbinders dies to fit the sentiment I had in mind, and zooooooom… … on to the assembly! A last minute decision was made to add on the white dots from the SCS WT183 challenge, and it’s done! Y’all have to understand … this was delightful timing for me! I’m practically giddy over this-new -for-me fav ‘quick & simple’! So here’s to a splendid new week to everyone, and bunches of surprising giggles!

This is beautiful! The colors just pop and you are right simple quick cards are always in demand.
Beautiful card, Bev! Thanks for the heads up on the monogram stamps, too. I have been looking at these for a while. I couldn’t hold out any longer if they were going to go up in price. I am so glad you let us know. 🙂 I am so easily tempted, too. LOL Kel
