Bubbles Anyone?

What a beautiful day we had today.  The best one so far this year.  We still needed a sweater, but actually were able to enjoy a coffee outside in the sunshine.  It's probably just a teaser, but hopefully soon....


Today's card uses an image from QKR Stampede, titled Bubbles, and it's sure to bring a smile as it brings back memories of younger days.  Of course I'm not meaning being chased by a bear, but rather, playing with bubbles.

I've made a frame for this one, using the left over piece of paper from a die cut, which would be the negative.   As you can see, I've used the 'out of the box' technique again, for cutting out the image after colouring with copics.  The sentiment is from Stampendous, and was ideal for this card.  Nice and simple design.

  1. A great way to make a frame for an image. Your card is so cute with lovely colours. Great memories indeed making our own soap bubbles which didn't always work particularly well I seem to remember. Glad you've got warmer weather on the way and had a sit in the garden. We've had lots more rain over the last couple of days, mixed in with a little sunshine. Hope you had a great Easter weekend xx
