Make It Monday - Stampin' Up! Polka Dot Pieces Convention Card Candy Swap (#inspirecreateshare2014)

Good Afternoon Everyone! My Make It Monday share is Card Candy I created for a Swap during the  Stampin' Up! Convention 2014. For those of you who are not familiar with this, Card Candy is card stock and embellishments that you can attach to cards, scrapbook pages and other paper craft projects. It is the equivalent to Jolie's Boutique that you find in local craft store. I used the Stampin' Up! Polka Dot Pieces and Papillion Potpourri stamps sets for my individual pieces. These sets have coordinating paper punches which made assembling them very easy. Accordingly, I embellished with a variety of pearls. This swap was so much fun and I love every one's creations! I will post the Card Candy I received later on this week!
