Creative Card Crew #47 - Going Dotty!

Hello everyone and welcome to another Creative Card Crew Challenge. Wow!! ... what an amazing number and quality of entries for last week's "celebration" challenge - it was brilliant that so many of you could join us. Don't forget to check back later to see who has won my three LotV stamps blog candy :-), and who has won the prizes on the main challenge blog.

This week we have another great challenge - we'd like to see you all

going dotty!
and we have another fab prize sponsored by


which is this adorable House Mouse stamp.

The rest of the DT has been really going dotty so I hope you'll call by their blogs to check out their creations. Here's mine .... a few firsts for me as it is my first paper-pieced card and my first use of the fab Bazzill jewel templates to create my pearly flourishes :-)

I used the fab sketch from this week's Simon Says Challenge

and would also like to enter the card for the following challenges:

ABC - P is for Paper-Piecing
One Stop Craft Challenge #71 - Spots & Dots
Crafty Cardmakers #16 - A Feminine Celebration
Kaboodle #26 - Happy Birthday!


Recipe:
Main image: WOJ "Willow Shopping" coloured with watercolour pencils, edges sponged with Versamgic chalk ink, and bags paper-pieced;
Sentiment: Craftwork Cards;
Papers: MME "Pretty Please";
Supplies: pearls, spacers and pearl brads from The Hobby House; flowers from my stash;
Tools: "Labels four" nestabilities; Bazzill jewel templates "Flourishes and flowers".
