This week our Monday Mania hostess, Trish, came up with a cute "SEEING SPOTS" challenge, a recipe where you must use at least 3 circles on your project. I came up with this fun card, can you see all the spots, dots and circles? It uses the new "Amelia" stamp from the "HAPPY DAY" set, available TODAY at TGF!

Shadow: B60,
and I use my colourless Blender throughout.


What's more? TWO of these lovely ladies have a PRIZE hidden on their blogs! There's a Camille or Ebony Stamp to GIVE AWAY, and All you gotta do is leave a comment on everyone's blogs and come back TOMORROW to find out who won! You'll have until 10 PM CST TONIGHT to enter!
