Dotty for spotty papers?

If like me you love spotty papers you are going to love the new Rainbow Polkadots download which has just been released and is available here on the Funky Hand website.

I have been dying to show you this card I made a few weeks ago when Anice gave us the papers to play with. I made a (sort of) Union Jack by sewing through different paper pieced strips of papers. I have a top tip to share if you are going to give this a try...make sure you use wet glue and let it dry or very narrow double sided tape so you don't upset your machine by sewing through the tape. I had a few failed attempts and actually thought my machine was broken until I figured it out! The lace and Ribbon and from The Ribbon Girl, the crown was from my stash but you can buy similar ones from The Ribbon Girl here too.


I love these papers so much! Spots and stripes are pretty much craft staples for me and there is colour for every project in this download. My Funky Hand teamies all love Polkadots as much as I do and have created some fab samples so there are lots of lovely new things for you to be inspired by in the Gallery.
Have a good Thursday.
