Stampin' Up! Perfect Polka Dots

 

Can a card be too easy to make? This card certainly comes close.

I used only two colours of cardstock for this card (well, one is Whisper White, does that even count?)  and no stamps or ink except for the inside greeting.

I ran a piece of Real Red cardstock through the Big Shot die-cut machine with the Perfect Polka Dots Impressions Folder.  I love this folder! It adds a bit of pizzazz to any card and is so easy to use. 

Next, I made a heart with the Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslit Die and the Big Shot and adhered the heart to the card with dimensionals.

To finish, I added a couple of Whisper White Jumbo Brads in the bottom right corner and assembled the card. So easy!

This card is so elegant and yet was very simple to make. The heart stamp from Polka Dot Punches was used to create the focal piece and the background on the largest square of black. By rotating the image it filled up the piece and created the design. Heat embossing with gold powder finished this card.

 

I plan to use it for Valentines Day right now and for wedding and anniversary cards this year as well. These stamps coordinate with the same shaped Stampin’ Up! punches and makes cutting out the images easy-peasy. Polk Dot Punches is FREE with a $60 purchase until March 31st. But you will want it now with Valentines just around the corner.
