Dotty Tree


Happy Friday, everyone!  Friday means it's Friends With Flair day over at Unity and it also means it's deadline day for the latest Paper Players challenge.  I've used Unity stamps and the Paper Players' colours for my card as well as some Nestie and impression plate action.  
I'll be back later with another card and also the winner of the blog candy!  For now though it's off to work.  Hopefully it will be a better day than yesterday which started off with an excited Great Dane peeing all over my leg!  The joys of working with animals!  :)




Supplies Used:
Cardstock:  (White) Bazzill Basics, (Almost Artichoke) Stampin' Up
Stamps:  (Tree from Gingham Christmas Greetings by Ippity, Sentiment from Christmas Bough) Unity Stamp Co
Ink:  (Riding Hood Red, Almost Artichoke, River Rock) Stampin' Up
Die:  (Nestabilities Labels Ten) Spellbinders
Impression Plate:  (Polka Dot Basics II) PTI
Gem:  Doodlebug
