Lately I have been trying to organize my studio! (Smaller job would suit me better!!) When I try to learn something new I usually have hundreds of samples by the time I perfect the technique...yesterday I found my stash of 'Bandana' samples. To-days challenge was dots! Bonus...dots coming out of my ears!! Yes!! The flourish is stamped in black then using acrylic paint and a stylus various sized dots are used to accent the image. I cut an oval out and added gems after embossing the background. The bow is made using a small oval punch folded over with a flag end strip behind.

Love how this came together and your "bandana" find! A great idea for this challenge and thanks for the explanation of your bow. I'm going to have to give that a try!

Sue - this is just super!! I love the elegance of it. The curves of the flourish fit the oval perfectly, and your dots are amazing.
LOL at the smaller job. I'm trying to get mine tidy-ish before DTGD kicks off, but I'm struggling...too hot up in the attic these days.
