Today is going to be so much fun-I love blog hops! Even more, I love participating in blog hops and giving away prizes! If you are just joining the blog hop, please make sure that you start at the beginning HERE on the DeNami Design blog. You will want to visit all of the blogs on the hop for chances to win some fabulous prizes from DeNami and to see all of the Design Team members' cards. We also have three special guest designers for the hop, as well!
I got to play with some of DeNami's newest releases for this card. I started with the new Polka Dot Background. This is a Polka Dot Blog Hop, after all! I paired this background with punched circle embellishments-kind of like "over-sized polka dots", heehee. Each circle is stamped with a two-step stamping technique. I used the apples from the Apples and Pears Stamp Set. First, I stamped the solid apples using red and lime green chalk ink. Then I stamped over these with the apple outline stamp using black ink. You can use a stamp positioner to line them up perfectly, or you can stamp them randomly (like I did) for a more whimsical look. A little touch of polka dot ribbon finishes it off.
There is one more stop on the Polka Dot Blog Hop. You are now off to visit the lovely and fabulous:
Thanks for joining us today! Remember to leave some love on each of the blogs for your chance to win some yummy DeNami goodies! Enjoy!

This card is apple-ishous!
Sherri, I really like how crisp and clean this card is. The double-stamping technique with the apples is great, and I can't wait to do that when I get my set of those stamps! Great job!
Oh so cute!! Love that little bit of ric rak tied in :)

Love how you used the circles to complement the polka dots in the background :)

I love the little apples. I have been playing with the same set.
Your 'whimsical' use of the apple stamps is 'perfect' . . . I love how they may not exactly line up. And round dots / round apples ~ need I say more?
Sweet card!! Now I want an apple :)

Love the polka dot background AND the ribbon! Cute!
Simple, yet adorable. Easy to replicate, right up my alley. Great card!
I bought the apples set as soon as they were released and have only used them once for lack of an idea. This is such a great card and simple to do. This will definitely be one of my next projects.
Sweet! Perfect for a teacher card, too.
This would be a darling back-to-school card for teachers or office staff! Love the dimension of the apples with the polka dots. Using the circle punch also echoes the polka dots while maintaining the balance! Of course your ribbon is cute too! Thanks for the great ideas!
Great back to school idea for my teacher friends!
