The first card came about as I was playing with several PTI sets (Polka Dot Basics 2, Distressed Stripes and Bitty Background Blocks) to see what I could come up with. Several attempts using Polka Dot Basics and Distressed Stripes came to nothing. But then I decided to stamp the little background block that has tiny dots in it and add the two stripes... loved it!! I think this card will also work for this week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge (color blocking) so I'm going to pop it into that challenge as well. The sentiment is from another PTI set Signature Greetings. The Dynamic Duo colors this week are Pool Party and Lucky Limeade. I don't have Lucky Limeade so I used Pear Pizzazz instead.
The second card happened because I took a look through my PTI mini sets and saw the Bits & Buttons set. The buttons are... well... dots and some of them have stripes and dots in the buttons!! For this card I created a border using two different sized dots and the two Dynamic Duo colors. The sentiment is also from Signature Greetings. I haven't used this many PTI sets ever! Of the two card, the first one is my favorite.
Thanks for stopping by....

Beautiful cards. I love your work!
Love both of your cards. BTW, we are neighbors. I live in Maple Valley, WA.
Way to rock so many challenges with two cards!! I'm okay if the first one is your favorite because of the two, the second one is my favorite. I mean, Rosemary, seriously? How does a "spots and stripes" take get any better than spots with spots and stripes?! Bam-O!
Awesome CAS cards Rosemary!!...Good to see your work again...

Gorgeous cards, Rosemary! I particularly love the second card - spotty spots and stripey spots!
These are both awesome but I especially love the second one. It would make a great card set made in different colours!
