Hello and welcome! It's Double D Challenge time again, and Darlene is calling for polka dots! I do love polka dots. In my vintage preschool days I had a favorite book about a polka dot thief -- a sinister fellow who stole the polka dots off everything in the house. Imagine!
Have a look at our very cute inspiration board:
And a prize for a random winner:
My card features plenty of polka dots and a pup with a cupcake.
He's another of my recently acquired Inky Antics critter sets by Jane Miller. So much life and character... I've collected most of my favorites, but will probably go back for more. Just gathering joy. I did messy coloring with Tombow markers. Added glitter to the cupcake frosting. Everything on this card, other than the dog, has been in my stamp room for years. The polka dot papers are oldies from Stampin' Up.
'My pup looks like he should be for a guy, so I'll probably give him to my friend to use for one of her boys. Every card finds a home.
We sure enjoyed all the beautiful florals in our previous challenge, and now I'm looking forward to seeing your polka dots. Come to the Double D blog and check out all the polka dot cards the team is sharing. This is going to be fun! Have a great day!

Your little pup is so cute. Love the layout and all the polka dots. I just love it when I can use the stuff that's already in my stash.

Leslie, I always have a smile on my face when I see your cards with dogs. I don't even own a dog, but I want all the dog stamps that you have. I adore the sentiment and the look on the doggie's face.
Now THAT is a well-trained pup! Everyone knows it's polite to open the card before eating the cake! lol
So darling, Leslie!

Adorable Pup celebrating his friends special birthday:-) Thank you for sharing your pup and how well-trained he is:-) Love and Hugs...Birthdays are so much fun to share:-)
This little guy couldn't be any cuter, and the polka dots are just super fun and perfect for him. Your "messy" coloring is perfect for this disheveled dog. This was the perfect challenge to help use up older papers from our stash, wasn't it? Your doggie card is just darling!
You have brought this pup to life, Leslie! And the bright polka dot background brings even more of a festive feel. What a delight!
Oh my gosh ... your card is SO adorable, Leslie! :) Made me smile. :) xx

What a fabulous image that is Leslie! I am amazed at all the polka dots you have included on your card and how well everything gels together! Have a wonderful golden weekend! Vicky x
Such a cute card! Who doesn't love polka dots and cute dogs!! What a great birthday card with the cupcake sitting on the top of the dog with that adorable sentiment! Have a great weekend!
Totally sweet and adorable! What a cute pup image and so many wonderful polka dot designs! I would love to be considered "still a pup".
So cute and festive with the streamers, Terrific coloring of the dog, Fun sentiment to go with it and I love the sign hanging out his mouth, like the extra dots you added behind the dog too!
So fun! I love the cockeyed cupcake on his head and the loose coloring! The polka dots are adorable and I'm glad they came out to play! The most amazing thing is: you find a home for every card, Leslie? That's what makes YOU so special!
