Tiny Bubbles ...

Happy Monday All!

Well it appears our 3 days of Spring was just a tease!

Rain, snow, cold temperature ... ugh ... Spring isn't quite here yet in NE Ohio!

So while I wait, I've created a 'bubbly' card for the challenge

I spotted over on the Addicted to CAS challenge blog where the theme is BUBBLES.

To create the bubbles on the front of my card,

I have used the Memory Box 'Bubbles' stencil and Tim Holtz Distress

Oxide 'Salty Ocean' ink w/large sponge dauber.

The Frantic Stamper Swimming Mermaid had been die cut for a different project but then I ended up die cutting it again in a different color for that project.  So, she was just laying on my work table waiting to be used and I thought it might be cute on today's design.  Also, she's popped up with dimension tape for added dimension.

Inside View

For the inside of my card I've used a stencil I actually created myself by using a sheet of clear packaging and die cutting circles of various sizes into it.

Going to be a couple very busy weeks coming up around here since we are trying to get all our ducks in a row prior to our BIG VACATION in May.  You will all be hearing and seeing more on that as we travel around in Australia, New Zealand, Bora Bora & Tahiti.  I can't even express how excited I'm getting!  LOL

But, in the meantime, back to reality and preparation
for a private show I'm doing at the local Country Club on Wednesday.
