Time for the Bubbly!

Oh guess what I made! Yes another Diva Va Voom card!! *okie cracks up laughin* Even though the mermaids kinda freak me out I decided to use the one in the bathtub. I actually think I printed her too big but I wasn't reprinting so I went with what I had. After I got her on the card she didn't freak me out nearly as much!

I kept trying to think of a sentiment to go with it and then I remembered a My Favorite Things stamp set I had that had some sentiments that would work. I know ya'll might be thinking "now what can this card be used for" and believe it or not I have an answer and when I tell you, you are going to think I am a freaking genius! *okie knows she is a genius and gets tired of spending so much time trying to convince others* So are you ready for it?? Are you sure?? I think it is perfect to use for when giving a gift from Bath and Body works or such!! NOW SAY IT WITH ME!! OKIE IS A FREAKING GENIUS!! *okie listens and hears the crickets chirping* Well okay maybe not a genius but it is rather clever!

The paper is double sided Daisy D's paper that I got a few years ago. I chose it because I thought the colors worked well with the image. I used the orange colors to match the mermaids hair.

In the close up you can see the bubbles I made using Glossy Accents. I kept looking at the card trying to figure out what I could do to make it more interesting. I tried skittles, but that didn't work. I thought about more brads but that would be too much. I started digging in one of my drawers and came across my Glossy Accents and thought "THAT'S IT!" I think it really added to the card and image.

Okay I off to play with my Diva images and see what I can make next!!
