Dotted Thank You - PSC45

Good morning friends.  So good to see you back here on a Wednesday for another Perfect Sentiment challenge!  This should be an easy one for you.  The challenge is to create a card with the sentiment of Thanks, and the twist is to use DOTS somewhere on your project.

Our sponsor this week is Crafty Sentiments Designs and one lucky winner will receive 3 free digital stamps from their store.
The ironic thing is that I submitted my last week's PSC card for their Clean and Simple challenge and I was the WINNER.  Just found out tonight, so I'm also going to be getting 3 free digis from their store!

Okay, coming down off of my winners high, here is my card for this week's PSC challenge.
For my card, I used one of Elisabeth Bell's stamps called Belinda With Teddy from Belles & Whistles.  Isn't she adorable.  She is stamped on Express It Blending Card and matted on Stampin Up Lavender Lace which is also used for the base of the card and for the sentiment mat.

My design is based on a sketch from Bev Rochester.  I love her blog All the Things I Love and follow her on a daily basis.


The sentiment is from Stampin Up's Fancy Flexible Phrases.  I love these little stamps and can usually find just the right sentiment for my cards.  It is stamped using SU Lavender Lace ink on SU Whisper White and then punched out using SU small oval.  The mat is punched with a Marvy small scallop oval punch.

The paper is from Stampin Up Woodland Walk.  I used a MS border punch for the mat under the dotted paper.  The ribbon is from my stash and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  I used my Martha Stewart Leaf Branch punch for the leaves which are punched from Stampin Up Garden Green c/s.

If you need some more inspiration, you should pop on over to Perfect Sentiment Challenge blog and see what the rest of the Design Team is up to and then join in and link up your own creation for this week.  YOU could be the random lucky winner this week of those 3 digis from Crafty Sentiments or your card could be chosen as one of the Perfect 3.

I'm going to be submitting this card to the following challenges:
Can You Digi It - Purple Please
Cards and More - Anything Goes
Jackson Digital Expressions - Anything Goes
Stamp N Plus - Flowers
Make It Monday - Anything Goes
Paper Pretties - Anything Goes

That's it for today.  Thanks for stopping by and leaving your comments.  I so appreciate the time it takes for you to do that.
