CAS-ual Friday #56

Happy Monday!! How was your weekend? I hope it was fabulous. Summer was in full swing here with beautiful weather, BBQ's, raspberry mojitos and sleepovers. It was a fun weekend. And I found some time to squeeze in a challenge! This week at the CAS-ual Friday blog, it's all about polka dots.


I immediately pulled out my polka dot basics set by Papertrey Ink. And I have been wanting to use this Unity popsicle stamp for a while. I tried my best to combine the two. I'm not sure I succeeded. This card didn't turn out exactly how I had imagined, but i'm not sure why? I attempted some paper piecing with the popsicle and some Jillibean Soup paper.


I love the stamp, I love the paper...just not sure I love them together. Oh well...you win some, you lose some!!

I hope you had a great weekend...welcome to another Monday!!
