Well I'm definitely not a stripes person, so for me it had to be spots. To be honest I'm not usually over keen on large polka dots, but I do like these sweet small spotty papers. Yup, you've guessed it, they're from my Silent Night paper pad. That'll be 3 times in 4 days that I've used this pad :0)
I've not used a Tilda image for a while. Actually thinking about it now, I can't even remember the last time I used a Tilda. This is one I've not inked up yet, so I thought I'd use this challenge as an excuse to give her an outing.
I've also been brave and opened my pot of Frantage for the first time. I think I bought it back in the early summer, but have not yet had the courage to use it. I actually wasn't sure how much to use, and now think I could have put a spot more on, but for a first attempt it's not too bad, and next time I won't be so scared to throw a bit more on.
I've also used a lilac colour accent on my card after seeing the fab combo with the same paper pad on Lisa's card last week. Funnily enough, my layout also looks a bit like her card, but I was actually following a sketch on The Sketchy Challenge, so that's just a bit of a coincidence.

BEAUTIFUL, I confess I am not a great Tilda fan but you have gone some way to changing my mind!! Just how many Silent Night pads have you been through!? I too have an unopened pot of frantage and don't know what the heck to do with it!!!
