Hello Friends, It’s me again! Are you getting tired of me yet? Maybe not today lol. I have a very timely giveaway, a video & two cards.
When this “One with Nature” stamp set arrived from Simon Says Stamp newest release called, “The Color of Fun” I was thrilled .. I thought it was perfect for the 30 day coloring challenge.
I fumbled around with the sentiment and different ink colors until I settled on layering the vellum. The twine felt like the right touch for my nature card.
To watch the video in HD click here. 🙂
Stamping a background is always fun and relaxing for me. I share a little about creating this card in the video. I used this same stamp set for this card and the die cut is aptly called “Relax“.
When I colored the leaves some sections are colored all the way in and other parts are feathered. Does that make sense? For some dramatic white dots I used this white puff paint.
THE GIVEAWAY! I have a $25.00 GIFT CERTIFICATE to the Simon Says Stamp Store! Woo Hoo! All you need to do is leave a comment tell me if you like white dots. You can say yes or no 🙂 I announce a random winner on Monday June 22nd.
Thanks for watching my video and visiting my blog I am always grateful! Hugs, Kathy
P.S. I forgot to tell you that the stamping pad with the grid background is finally available! Woo Hoo. Check out the details here.
P.S.S. Go here to read more about the 30 Day Coloring Challenge and if you want to share what your creating go to Day 1 and scroll to the bottom of the post. You will find a blue Inlinkz tab to link up your coloring.

White dots? Yes 😉
Beautiful cards! Always love the different ways you use your stamps. Love both of these ♥
White Dots – I love the pattern. Very lively. The colors are great. What I beleve ruins the card is the
Relax greeting. It is too blocky and the color doesn’t blend well with the colors. Too harsh. So I am saying no.
Darlene,
Thank you for your honesty and feedback. 🙂
Yes, I LOVE white dots! I also love the creative way you played with this set, Kathy ~ Awesome cards! Thanks so much for another great video!
I have to tell you that this stamp set wasn’t even on my radar until I saw what you did with it….both awesome, fun cards! Love the white dots too!!!
YES, yes, yes! White dots are fabulous… I just wish I made them better!
Both cards are beautiful Kathy. I looked at that stamp set for the longest time and then finally passed on it. I new I would kick myself as soon as I saw someone do some cool stuff with it. I was right, I’m kicking myself because both your projects are awesome.
Dots forever love your cards your background is amazing. Hugs

I love white dots!!! beautiful cards!!
Oh my, your cards are incredible, Kathy … absolutely stunning … love! White dots … I don’t really use them much … but yours are just wow! Thanks for such brilliant inspiration! Anita 🙂
Yes, I love how you use white dots!
Hi Kathy. I have never seen one of those stamping gizmo’s before. That is such a great idea. I love white highlights /dots…thanks to you :-). They just bring everything to life. I am learning so much from this 30 Day challenge.
Karen,
The gizmo is called Misti. I love it. I can stamp things darker and line up images so much easier. A great tool and I waste less paper with poorly stamped images. I so happy you are enjoying the 30 Day Challenge 🙂
Yes, I like white dots, they give such a lift to designs : )
Fabulous cards! Love both of them…and YES I love the white dots 🙂 🙂
I love white dots. I love how you add them to so much that you do as it highlights the image. I am trying myself but not being bery successful yet. Working on it though. Love that relax background section.
love the white dots!!!
I love the white dots on your card! ..maybe something I should try..
I love the white dot…it makes the image so unique!
White dots? Triple love ’em!
I was thinking I there wasn’t anything in this release that I simply had to have. But now that I see your card I think ithe One with Nature is a must have!
Yes! I saw this stamp set yesterday on loads of blogs and I absolutely loved it. I love your video! I love how it feels you’re right there, just chatting away giving me crafty tips 🙂 xx
Ruth, I’m glad you’re hanging out with me and finding time for yourself. 🙂
Who doesn’t like white dots??? great cards.
Neat cards! I really like all the color combinations you used…just awesome!
Yes! But why can’t I get my white dots to look as good as yours? You are the master!
Yes, I like the white dots. That product looks like it is easy to use. Love the very graphic leaf design stamps.
Yes, you have shown me how awesome white dots are! Great cards!!!
You make coloring look so easy and natural! I love white dots but my Signo pens always clog and skip. I need a better alternative.
Donna, I’ ve always had success with the Signo and the tips I have shared but some people like the white gelly roll as an option. I personally haven’t used it. Have fun making dots. LOL 🙂
Thumbs up for white dots!.. love these cards, super inspirational!!
Yes, I like dots 🙂 It adds to that fun graphic look you created. Is this new product similar to enamel accents??
Love these, Kathy, and I do love white dots. I tried using your technique with my Aquamarkers yesterday, but it turns out it doesn’t work with my markers. So I probably need to buy some Zig markers after all, along with this fun stamp set. 😉
Marianne x
Yes. I love white Dots. I all so love your coloring. Thanks for the video 🙂
I don’t use dots that often in my cards but I need to start! Love the look of those white dots.
Love your white dots! They added a modern twist to the already lovely tree stamp and made it that much more exciting. I’ve seen you add white dots to other stamped images and been surprised how much more striking the image looks.
Love how you alternated full coloring and flicking on the background card trees.
Yes, I like white dots … I can perhaps say addicted to white dots! LOL
Love the cards, your creativity always surprises me
ok, now you made me want this stamp set. This is beautiful. I thought the stamp could also be a feather. Think of the color possibilities! I love what. You do with dots. I am not sure my dots would have as much finesse!
I LOVE white dots! Thank you for this chance to win- the cards are amazing!
The white dots sure add dramatic effects, both card delightful!! The stamp set is really cute!!
White dots? Yes, love them!
Received my white Jelly Roll Gel Pens in the mail the other week and love adding accents to my cards! These are so pretty, beautiful coloring! Thanks for sharing! ~Annie
Great cards! Love white dots. 😉

yes, I love the white dots! adds such a great look! 🙂
Such a fun and clever use of this set! Love it!!
I never used white dots until I started really learning coloring and shading. It was amazing that my eye never REALLY saw them and they were right in front of me! Now my signal white pen is right there with me in my projects!
Lisa, I’m glad I gave you the courage to get white dotty. LOL 🙂
Love the white dots! Your cards are lovely. You are so good with those Zig brush pens, they are frustrating me to no end!
Fantastic cards…like the extra detail with the white dots.

Yes…the white dots are awesome. And you mentioned that they come in different colors which makes it even better! Love to watch your vids Kathy! And yes….coloring is a great way to de-stress and lower blood pressure. Thank you for sharing your talent and process with us!
Pocono Pam, I couldn’t agree with you more and that’s the key reason for the 30 Day Challenge. Keep up the de-stressing! 🙂
Yes, perfect finishing detail!
I love ALL dots! Your white ones really make the cards pop…they add a nice dimension to the design.

Yes!! White dots are a must. 🙂
I love dots! Big or small. White or colors. Puffy or flat!

While i generally love polka dots, I have been trending more towards the clean and simple style lately, so have to say no,
Yes, love white dots!
Your cards are awesome!
Yes It’s those little touches that set your work apart.
I love white dots. I love polka odts at all.
Yes, for the white dots! Love your cards, such great inspiration!
Yes, I like and use white dots on my cards and on my art journaling pages.
I love white dots especially when they bubble up to look like fresh paint!
What’s not to like about white dots? 🙂 Yes, I do like them…some colors just scream for white!
Love the white dots! They add so much.
Absolutely YES! Love those white dots. They are just perfect on that card. Love that you gave us two very different applications of the same stamp. Both cards are beautiful.
Great cards, very colorful. Love the way you colored the first one. Yes to white dots! 🙂
Ah! Such AWESOMENESS, Kathy! I am loving your colored backgrounds. And while I may not use white dots (I do own a white gel pen), you are SERIOUSLY making rethink the various ways to use white dots to embellish. So YES, to white dots =) Thanks for the giveaway, too. Keep up the amazing inspiration. I am loving it and feeling inspired to be in my craft room everyday.

Love your cards & yes, I do like white dots. 🙂
Yes I like white dots & the way you use them. Lovely cards.
I do like white dots: they add a little bit of interest to the project)
You have given me a whole new appreciation for white dots … and little black ticks of accent and emphasis… and now feathering!
I’m loving this 30 days of coloring – it’s pretty funny to feel like I needed you to give me permission to just play, relax, try new things and have fun. But you did and I AM!! My shadows are all over the place (especially when I am using my magical light source LOL), and yet some come out perfectly. My blending is getting so much better. Practicing and playing – fun fun fun. Thank you, Kathy. And for looking at and comment on every shared piece of art everyone is doing. So very sweet of you to spend all that time. 🙂 Melanie
Melanie, Always give yourself time to play, relax and try new things. I’m glad I pushed you in the right direction. Playing always makes you better at coloring. Thank you for your kind words and appreciation. 🙂
LOVE THE WHITE DOTS…THEY ARE PERFECT!
I always love your white dots! They just add a little somethin’.
I like white dots. I loved the white dots on your card. Such a cool pattern
I love your explore nature card-it is quite stunning actually! But, I do love your white dots, also!
I love the white dots! They add a little something extra to the card.
O Yes – I love white dots. Been adding them on my cards too. I think it makes the colours pop more.
Kathy, I love this mod, mad set! And your color combo’s on each card are perfect! I did try you bold dark line around my stamp image (my Penny Black, frog card) and honestly it really popped that image forward! I had stamped that image a long time ago and had never colored it. Now it’s one of my favorite cards. I do what to ask your opinion on the new Zig Clean Color Brush sets. I have several expensive watercolor sets, plus Inktense pencils, etc (you get the picture). What is the value added to purchasing this “new” brush set. What am I going to get from it that I don’t already get from my other watercolor sets? I’ve been tempted but so far have not ordered. I have a tendency to fall back on my old trusted Grumbacher set of translucent watercolor set. I love the Kuratake products for sure, but want to watch my crafting dollars now that we are retired.
White dots? Yes!
Cards colored by Kathy? Yes!
Process video? Yes!
I like white dots! I haven’t watched the video yet because I have to got get ready for work, but I love the card. This stamp set was the first thing to catch my eye on the new release!
I love the white dots!
I like the white dots! I love how you used the leaf stamp to create the background on the second card – it doesn’t look like leaves to me just a cool background. I’m definitely going to go look at some of my image stamps differently.
Oh my gosh your cards are gorgeous, Kathy! And who doesn’t love white dots?!
Absolutely YES to white dots!
Yes, yes, yes to the white dots! I didn’t really notice this stamp set until I saw your samples. They’re so beautiful! This set is now at the top of my wish list.
Yes, like the white dots, it adds interest to a already beautiful card !
YES!
I never get tired of reading your posts Kathy! You always have some amazing tip or technique I haven’t seen or thought about so it’s never a waste of my time to visit your blog. 🙂 I do like the white dots. I think the texture it creates really brings something to the project. It really creates interest! Thanks for the inspiration. Happy weekend!
I love white dots. Thanks for this post. I learned from it.
My name is Dot so yes, I absolutely love the white dots!!! I try to include dots on everything from my clothes, to quilts and my cards.
Yes, I like white dots. They are a great visual element and add texture to projects!
Of course I love your white dots! You work so much magic with them 🙂
although the white dots are kinda signature for you, I haven’t tried it yet. Guess I’m afraid I’ll do too much or too little. They do add pizzazz to your flowers. Maybe I’ll try them soon. Your sweet attitude encourages to try new things.
Angie, Go get dotty and have fun. It’s just paper. Color like no one is watching. 🙂
Yes to the white dots.
I think they look great on this project. Wouldn’t want them on the leaves in the other project.
thanks.
White dots, absolutely! Love your series and all the beautiful projects you create. I also love your honest and off the cuff commentary in your videos. Someone who is real. Love it!

I love white dots . . . actually dots of any color. Your card is great and now there is another stamp set I would like.
Yes! Cute cards!
The white dots look great. Incorporating them adds another element, a slight 3 dementional effect.
Love the dots! They added dimension to a beautiful card.

Absolutely! The white dots totally make it!

Yes – I love the pop the white dots give to the coloring.
Super cute cards Katie. Love the marbled look on the first one… but amazing coloring on the second… yes, I do love white dots… they look great with Copics.
I do love them. I have a special place in my heart for white polka dots, and gingham. Both are wonderful.
I love white dots. They act as a highlight and brighten any card. I enjoy your videos and learn so much from each one. Thank you for your time and effort and your willingness to share. Love both cards, but especially the watercolor one!
Thinking outside the box with your second card – so clever! I like the dots and extras added to simple stamps like this.
YES! I love the white dots. Those are especially wonderful. (In fact, I’ve been putting little white dots on many of my cards since watching you do it.)
Carol, Love it when I hear others are seeing dots and using dots. Have fun for you. 🙂
You certainly have a way with colour Kathy! I absolutely love your cards and the gorgeous colours you have used, very crisp.

Kathy – I’m surprised that you used the SSS Ink with the watercolor – If it’s a dye based ink why didn’t it bleed? Also, is it compatible w/copics? I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks for all the tut’s.
Oops – yes – love the white dots.
Yes, the dots are an excellent touch here.
Yes 🙂
Love your designs and white dots.
Yes, especially when done by you since you always seem to know the perfect place to put them!

Kathy B
Looks like a big ‘thumbs-up’ for white dots! LOL. I totally agree – its part of what I think of as your signature style and adds drama and impact to a pattern/design! Jo x
Yes for the white dots. It really adds texture and dimension to,the leaves.
Kathy, I love your white dots! They always add something a little extra to your work. As much as I admire them, do you think I remember to do the same myself? Um..no..
I’ll have to put out that white gel pen where I won’t forget I have it!
Fun cards, I really love the shading on the 3 trees, it does really stand out!
Oh…and I really do like the white dots!!!
White dots? Yes Please! I love the white dots.
I love the way you used these stamps! So creative. Thanks Kathy!
Yay on the white dots. They always make me happy!

I love your white dots. It took me a while to pinpoint what it was about your cards when I first started following you. That’s when I realized it was that white gel pen! Keep inspiring!

YES!
Love your cards, especially the first one – the layered vellum is a great solution, as is the twine! And the coloring is breathtaking.
Love the white dots. You enabled me again, this was one of the stamp sets I didn’t think I needed from the newest SSS release, now I have to have it.
Tired of you? Never! You are such a talented lady always giving great tutorial to all of us, Kathy! Thank you so much! Yes, the white dots really add a great dimension on the cards!
I like white dots once in awhile but not all the time. Same way with white dash marks. A pet peeve of mine is when someone has this wonderfully creative going on and they add whit dashes to it for no reason. Your white dots on your card look great!
Yes I love the white dots. They give a nice accent to the beautiful coloured leaves
I am loving this newest release! So many fun products to chose from 🙂

White Dots~ Love them!! I especially like them on your One with Nature card.
I LOVE White dots!! I usually use the Signo white but that looks cool. Your coloring is always so fantastic, I get a lot of inspirations from you. Thank you so much. What a fabulous giveaway 🙂
i love YOUR white dots 🙂
I love the white dots you use, Kathy, you always use them just right. I bought a white gel pen on your say-so, glad I did, used it already:) these cards are great, another stamp added to the wish list!
Beautiful cards. Love the white puff paint! Got to have it!
I do like the dots. I even bought one of those other pens you usually use. The Signo. Mine never makes a nice round circle tho. I prime it and get it going on my finger, but it rarely looks good. I’d make more dots on my images, but the pen wasn’t doing me any favours ;(
Laura, I’ve had success with the Signo but others haven’t so you might try a Sharpie or a gelly roll. Go for the dots. 🙂
Very nice Kathy. I really like your combination of colors you used on your cards. Thanks for sharing.
yes I love the look of white dots…it really wasnt something I thought of using until I saw it on your blog and a very few others. What a pretty card you made today! Thanks for all the great daily posts!
I do like the white dots! I think it adds such a nice touch to the colored images…I’m trying to add those touches more and more to my coloring because I think it adds so much! 🙂
My first reaction would have been “no,” but when I saw yours, “Wowser!” I love white dots!
Beautiful clean cards!! Yes, I like white dots. 🙂 I love your coloring on both cards. Especially love the shading around the leaves on the first and the pretty colors. The vellum and twine are perfect. Thanks for sharing.

Each day keeps getting better!! I love the first square card – it is sweet and subtle but the clever way you created the geometric card is fantastic!! AND the white dots add so much – it looked great before you added them, but when you started dotting them on, I went – Whoa – WOW! You are an inspiration – thanks!!!
lyn
The dots are great and I enjoyed it all. Watching the watercolor paint move through the water is one of my favorite things. I played with something today, that didn’t turn out exactly as I would have liked, but I really had a blast playing and adding more and more watercolor. :-D, so I guess I don’t care if I ever use it for anything. It was just so much fun!!!
Denise, You get it! The 30 Day Challenge is all about you having fun. Love your spirit! 🙂
duh!! Haha, seriously though who doesn’t?! Amazing work as always!
Hi Kathy! Yes, I do. Very cool coloring in today’s video. Thanks for the great inspiration!

I absolutely love the white dots! The awesome background made with the leaves is so cool & the coloring around the leaves in the first card really make the image pop. Thanks for all your wonderful tips. You are a true coloring jewel!!
absolutly, the dots really made the card have panache
Gorgeous! I can’t get over the difference the Copic colouring made with the shadow around the leaves – it looks amazing! Love your colouring and love both cards! And a big YES to the white dots – they look great!
I love white dots but I don’t think I really know how to use them effectively! Love how you used them on this card!!
Hello Kathy I hope you had a happy Friday.. I love both of your cards and I will somewhat repeat myself from IG. I bought this stamp set yesterday with the intention at giving a try at the Kathy Touch. I love your white dots…they add diimension and interest to the geo pattern..stunning with your feathering tech and your choice of colors. Beautiful as your usual.. Have a wonderful weekend
These are beautiful!!!
I really like the white dots.
Yes to white dots!!
Love the new stamps and what you’ve done with them!
I like the white dots, but I never think to add any to my cards. Thanks for the chance to win!
Love those Neon White Dots…always looking for a great white to use for details 🙂
Absolutely, the white dots give the card that extra panache.
YES, I love white dots, although maybe not as much as you *wink!!
Love the white dots. Gives it a retro feel
Gorgeous cards!
Say yes to the dots!
totally LOVE the white dots. Always add that something special to your cards Kathy. I’ve been watercolouring again today. So you have inspired me yet again!
I love the white dots! I have to use some in my coloring and not just white either although I do like the white. I love the new stamp set and would love to have it! What I could do with all those stamps and all the colors I would use would make you dizzy! LOL I know what you mean about feathering. I think I have done it before.
I have an amazing tool for dotting. I bought it at Sally’s Beauty Supply and its called Nail Art Dotting Marble Dotting Tool. There are 5 of them and they have 2 tips on each one, each a different dot tip. It’s for making dotted designs on your nails but guess what else you can use it for? I plan to use it for both! Check it out!
Gail, Very clever! I’ll have to check it out. This might be a great alternative to others who are having difficulties with the Signo pen. Many people seem to want dot, dot …:)
Glad to be of some help. I hope it works. I’m going to do some black sneakers with maybe white dots but big ones and then some colored jewels in the white dots. How cool do you think that will look? I’m just trying to figure out how to get the dots to look perfect. I want this stamp set! I want all the stamp sets!
YES to white dots! I love how you embellish your art with the special touches!
Thanks to you Kathy, I adore white dots! You have brought them to a new dimension! You make them look so good! lol
I love watching your videos. All of your cards are so creative and colorful!
I really like this new stamp set and love what you did with it in the first card. You are the queen when it comes to the Signo highlights, so yes, I do like your white dots.
Great colors and Yes I like white dots.
YES!
Your cards are wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
I loVe your white dots. I’ll have to give it a try.
Crafty hugs,

It’s funny because until you said leaves I just saw them as trees! I guess they can be anything really. Such a great stamp set. I love the white dots. Definitely a great finishing touch.
Yes
I love the white dots!
Yes ~ Love white dots! Love the cards, very beautiful and inspirational.
Hi Kathy! Yes I love white dots! They are just perfect on your cards! What stunning cards! This is yet not her stamp set I must have now. I love the touch of vellum, but also think your using the orange under ‘relax’ was genius. Amy enjoying the 30 day color challenges so much!
Yes. I was watching the video, and loving the trees, and watercolor, etc. Then the second card I was like.. hrm.. needs something.. Let’s see where this goes.. Then you added the white dots, so I was like.. Oh yeah, that’s good.. it looks great! hehe I’m not a fan of the relax sentiment, but that is not on you. I just find it a little weird because the A and the E aren’t cut to look like they should.. That’s all me, though.. I guess coming from a family full of teachers, little things like that are bothersome, or maybe because we’re just a family full of weirdos.. haha I would use it, but I would probably have to go back with an exacto knife and cut out the little circles from the vowels.. *snicker* Thanks so much for sharing your cards, and especially the video. I love watching you work, and hearing your thought process.
Shari, You go girl! Whatever floats your boat. We all have our issues. LOL Just have fun. Thanks for your support. 🙂
the white dots really add a finishing touch. thanks
Yes, I love white dots and I love how you used the leaf stamp and your coloring is awesome. My fav orite card is the Explore Nature card in greens.
I really like both of these cards. I was not too interested in this particular release, but seeing your projects has given me some ideas. On my wish list now! As for white dots…Yes! Although I can never get them to look quite as good as yours! I really like how you randomly placed them. I have some Amplify, so I am definitely going to have to try this!
Love the video! Yes to white dots! I have no idea where to add them , but as you always encourage that we should just do what feels right..no pressure. I will certainly give them a try more often!
Gorgeous cards Kathy! I love that new puffy paint, it looks so effective! I also love those water coloured abstract leaves. Looks like lots of fun 🙂
I love white dots!! It always adds a little bit of interest and dimension, even if you only put a couple.
Yes to the white dots! Kathy you are so talented and I am grateful for the mentoring through this website! You have taught me a lot!!
Yepppers! Love the dots! They add just that extra dimension that makes the card super special!)

BOTH cards are FABULOUS Kathy!!!
I LOVE these new stamps too!!!
The leaves look GORGEOUS and it was FUN watching the colours exploding across and the shading adds great dimension 🙂
The background of your relax card is SO GROOVY, such COOL stamping – I think the white dots work PERFECTLY with the design, so I say YES to the white dots, I really like the “negative” sentiment too!!!
Tracy, I love being GROOVY! Keep having fun and do some exploding of color yourself.Thanks for watching. 🙂

I Like White Dots. (and the Emerson quotes on this new set!)
Anything with dots, love it. Kathy you are right…coloring is a therapy…it’s what keeps me sane after a long stressful day of work and commute. I enjoy your 30 day color challenge..it’s a wonderful idea.
Regina, Dot to your heart’s content! Do for you. 🙂
WOW What beautiful cards!!! Oh yes I love white dots!!!
A definite YES to your white dots. I wish I could make mine look as good as you do. I start the marker out on my finger, but I never get them to look just right. I’ll keep practicing. I never used them, until I watched your videos and I fell in love with the effect. Love your videos.

Yes I like the white dots!!

Hi Kathy, I love the way you did the leaves, and the vellum over at the top is a nice affect, Cheers Anna.
Sorry I for got to add that I do love the dots!
I love it when you do the whites dots on your cards. I haven’t been brave enough to try it yet. I’m just do afraid of ruining my image. I plan on trying it soon.
Marlene, Play on a scrap piece of paper until you get the feel of the pen. Don’t be afraid just experiment and play. 🙂
So many comments with encouragement, so I won’t keep you and YES. TY4S

Thank you for sharing your wonderful creations with us and for the giveaway. 😀
hugs
I actually left a comment on your YouTube video saying how much I loved the details of the white dots. For a simple image, you really gave it some elegance.
I like them on other people’s cads 🙂
Yes! I like the white dots.

I love white dots, especially when you do them. I am learning on where to place them. Oh, darling cards. I just love the tree one. Thanks for all the inspiration.
I love the white dots, and I love that pattern you created!! Beautiful! 🙂
I love how you strung those leaves/trees together to make a geometric pattern.
oh, and yes, I love the white dots.
Yes to white dots! They add that little something and take the card to the next level!

Yes, I like the dots. 🙂
Yes, I love the white dots. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Yes. Love white dots.
Back from a trip and finally getting a chance to catch up and watch your videos. These cards are beyond stunning. The white dots are gorgeous!
Love ! Love! Love it ! Thank you. Keeping my fingers crossed that I am the lucky winner .
Yes
I absolutely LOVE both of these cards!! The vellum strip is the perfect accent to use with your sentiment on the leaves. I am really enjoying your use of white dots for accents! I’ve tried warming my gel pen on my finger as you show and it works! I like the dimension of the dots on this card, but I agree, if it flattens in the mail it really doesn’t matter because it is the white in the accent, not so much the dimension that matters. I love this coloring challenge. Thank you
Just gorgeous!!! I love the white dots and like to do that on my cards from time to time to make a colored image really pop!
White dots? It all depends. Sometimes one can go overboard, but how you used them here is just delightful! It really adds to the shapes. So, in this case YES! 😉
First time at your blog. Love your style and I like the white dots.
I like the white dots, but I liked the card without them also.
Definitely love the white dots! It does add character to colored images
Don’t know how I missed this day, then realized I was at various doctors all day. I thought I went back and looked but like dots, sometimes we don’t always see what is at the end out our noses. Anywhoooo, dots are the topic. I love dots as they can direct the eye, add punch, or balance another popping element. So, yes, Ms. Kathy, I like your dots. Oh, and as a side note, I LOVE the look of stained glass in the first card. Have a great weekend. ~M~
Great cards!! Thanks to you, I have learned the importance of adding highlights/white dots to really make an image pop. I am still trying to figure out where to put them and what pen to use though!
No, I am not crazy about the white dots because you have to pull out the heat gun to use them. I prefer Pearl Drops or Stickles because they don’t require another tool to use.
yes to white dots, although I have always problems with signo uni ball 🙁
The white dots are lovely. Hugz
Yes, I love white dots and I love these cards!!
