Blew it.............

I think this card ranks among my favorites ever - this set is from smARTworks' last release, and is one of my own designs. Here is a direct link to the catalog page... I love how the artwork turned out, and the font is a fun one too... the sentiments can go together or stand on their own. (There is another set of sentiments that say, "You blew me away with your kindness..." and "Thank you so much!") I colored with Prismacolor pencils, and the colors I used are down below for your reference. I added a few extra dew drop 'bubbles', plus some smaller Crystal Lacquer ones. The large bubble is covered with Crystal Lacquer, with some white acrylic paint swirled in.
I made this card an easel card, so here you can see what it looks like propped open. The layering inside is enough to hold it - no button or other prop in mine. Isn't she a darling? And the colors of this card make me want to go to an ice cream parlor.....just sayin'.

Here's a close up and better angle on the bubbles......
Thanks so much for stopping by!
