Just Us Girls Challenge


This card is for the Just us Girls Challenge. I was to create a project with dry embossing. It is also Dana's Birthday so the twist was that it was to be for a birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANA!!! I did a easel card. I started with the cute little image of a girl in a tub of bubbles. I cut out a scalloped oval and embossed it with circles. I had a piece of paper with different size circles and some matching flowers so used that for my dp. I cut a flower out and shadowed it with some blue for the top corner and then cut 3 sizes of circles out and overlapped them. I cut 4 "bubbles" to put the sentiments in. I also embossed them. I cut some acetate circle and embossed them and added a jewel to the center of them. Lots of circles...bubbles! For the base I punched a blue and a blue and white check with the Martha Stewart dot punch. I then embossed a white with the flowers and brushed a little blue on top to make them show up a little better. I added some blue and silver beads to finish the edge and cut out a flower and pop dotted it up for the stop. Hey I just figured out how I could make to 2 up close pics smaller. I learn something every challenge that I do!! Someday I will actually get the hang of how to do all of this. :)
