Polka Dots and Stripes Challenge for Heart2Heart Challenges!

This week's challenge at Heart2Heart Challenges is a salute to trendy polka dots and stripes!  Get your spotty polka dotty fun on and create a project to share with us this week.  Want to step it up a design notch?  Add some stripes for flair and pizazz!

This week's challenge works perfectly with the new Close to my Heart special "Dotty for You" papers.  So perfectly our entire design team independently chose to work with these papers this week!  To get your set of 24 papers (2 each of 12 double sided patterns) for just $5 click this link to visit my online store! 

While you don't have to use this particular paper, you do need to use Close to my Heart products and mention the challenge site in your post.  Have fun playing this week and head on over to Heart2Heart Challenges blog to post your project using our Mr. Linky!





With the exception of the Milk Carton and the scallops on the roof, everything was cut with the AP cartridge - love that thing!  The roof was three layers of paper scalloped with our corner rounder.  I cut the Milk Carton with my new Bags, Tags, Boxes and More 2 cartridge so mine is slightly smaller (2.5" square at the base) than the CTMH ready to decorate Milk Carton which is 3" square at the base.



Paper:  Dotty for You (special - ends May 31 so hurry and get your 24 sheets for $5!), Kraft Cardstock


Thanks for stopping by today!

I am really enjoying the theme/design of your weblog. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility problems? A few of my blog readers have complained about my blog not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any ideas to help fix this issue?
