After reading the challenge for today I quickly Googled POINTILLISM. I came upon one description that said to paint with Q-Tips. A light bulb went off in my head! I grabbed a new unused pencil and carved a small, not so round shape in the eraser.
I stamped a new stamp I got this weekend at the Rubberstamp Convention, colored it in using my new dot stamp and various colors of ink. What fun!
I cut my panel out using a Friskar oval shape plate. Made a Gelli Print bg, glued that to a black card, then glued my oval on top.
Took my Scarlet Lime pen and drew around the oval adding the black circles. Took the white pen adding the dots.
What a super fun challenge that gave me a new homemade stamp.
Have a great rest of the day everyone! TFL :0)

You really should see the smile on my face!!!! I can relate or should say my Allee definitely can relate to this image... She is a Shih Tzu with very long hair, so she gets really warm... When the a/c comes on, she races to the vent and flops down..... when the air comes thru the vent her ears float up and out...Hilarious!!!! Thanks so much for sharing....
