Tee-hee! I wish this were me! I can so see myself lounging around with my umbrella after a nice soak in a hot tub!! Ahhhhh! Now wouldn't that be the life?? Hmmmmm, this sorta sounds like somebody I know... *snort!* YOU know who YOU are! Pfffft!
Ok, so this is Ida LuLu from Stamping Bella. Isn't she a doll? I just LOVE those glasses of hers! SO stylish, don'tcha think? I need to get me a pair of those! Tee-hee!
I began my little card by stamping Ida onto some of Bella's Bestest Paper and colored her with my Copics. I stitched her to some SU Basic Black CS and adhered her to this DP from an old DCWV paper pad I had. I decided I didn't want to use any busy designer paper on this card, so the focus would be on the image entirely. I did add some Glossy Accents to Ida's glasses and also stamped my sentiment on the background paper as well. To finish, I tied on this pretty satin ribbon and added a few black brads with this fun flower accent for a little added interest. Simple but oh so cute!
