By The Tide

Hello Crafty Friends!

Another card for the Mod Squad Blog, Going Gingham Challenge.   The colors are a little unusual for these stamps I think, but I still like the outcome.

 
I used the By The Tide stamps from Stampin' Up!  Added a bit of red gingham ribbon on a black and white polka dot background, kind of fun looking.  The enamel dots are of my own 'baking'.  Judy Woodland shared a video she found on how to make them.  Hers came out awesome, mine not so much.   Apparently the trick is to use a glass pan, I used a cookie sheet.  I may try again at some point.  Here is the VIDEO.  If you make them  make sure you open a window, I noticed a small odor when baking them.

That's it for today!  Hope you have a wonderful day and thanks so much for popping in!

Enjoy~~

    Love your beachy card with that pretty red and white gingham ribbon! It looks great on the black and white polka dot paper.

    This is just radiant and the layout is sublime. ( tired of the usual words) I really like this card! I made Judy Dots and I used a cookie sheet too, but I also used parchment paper. That worked.
