Penny Black Challenge #102 - Lots of Dots!

Woo hoo! Saturday again, so it's time for another Penny Black Saturday Challenge. Thanks to everyone who played along with the "flowers" challenge last week - there were some really beautiful creations. Don't forget to check the main challenge blog to see if you have won last week's adorable teddy stamps prize.

This week our challenge theme is

Lots of Dots!

Yes I know you may think we're all dotty enough already, but let's draw a veil over that ;-)

We have another gorgeous prize for you this week ... I would say that because this week I'm the one who has donated it :-) It is this fab Penny Black vintage style stamp called "Letter and Daisy".

I decided to take this theme in a slightly unusual direction, as I was inspired primarily by a piece of the new Papermania "Henbury Lane" paper which is a soft aqua colour with glitter dots. It somehow put me in mind of falling snow, so before I knew it I was inking up my latest PB stamp "Snowy Park" and also adding more dots with dry embossing, ribbon and a gem flourish. Here's the result....

I would like to enter this one for just a couple of other challenges, namely:

Kaboodle #31 - monochromatic card

Totally Gorjuss #31 - Bling It On!

Recipe:

Main image: Penny Black "Snowy Park" (3231K), inked with Colorbox "Peacock" ink and heat embossed with holographic powder;
