SOS45 Circles and/or Dots

The Shopping our Stash weekly challenge #45 is to use circles and/or dots. Whenever I have small pieces of dsp left over, I punch various sizes of circles or squares and keep them all in an envelope for future use, so this challenge helped me use up some scraps easily. These are PTI bitty box basics dsp in various colors of yellow, green, and plum. I used a glue stick to adhere them to a piece of white card stock, and then ran it through my machine with a SU! square lattice ef. The coordinating borders were done with a SU! scalloped punch, and the sentiment was done with Concord Crush ink, using a HA stamp. The ribbon which coordinates with the gold color even has dots on it! :)
Thanks for spending a little of your day here, now go have a fabulous Wednesday!

Well you can even make scraps of paper look great. I love the look of these circles and background all embossed. Your scallops look great also. I'll be casing this one for sure. Talk soon.
