Challenge #398 - OLC Spots

Hey LIMettes!

We're back with our 'love it or hate it' challenge, yes it is One Layer Card time and the theme is Spots so we think you will be able to find some fun things to do with spots on a one layer card.

Please remember that if you are going to 'splatter' to create spots, you need to do so sparingly so that there is still lots of clean 'white' space on the card.

**********************************************************

To be eligible for showCASe and PRIZE WINNER choices you will need to carefully follow the guidance on our GLOSSARY OF TERMS and our HOW TO PLAY pages.Your design should feature lots of clean / white / blank / non patterned / non textured space.
