Well, my project isn't necessarily about summer - but it IS about relaxing, which is the best part of summer! One of my colleagues is expecting and we all chipped in to purchase a gift certificate to the spa for her. When I saw this new sentiment, I knew it would be perfect for the card to go with our gift!
I used an image from 9 Months for my card and popped it to create some dimension. I love the big belly popping out of the tub!! The young woman looks so relaxed. The tub was cut from cardstock with a vellum layer over top for the bubbles. It's difficult to tell in the photo, but the bottom white panel has been scored to create a panel look for the bathroom wall and I used a Fiskars' punch for the "chair rail". The wonderful bubble paper is from my stash.
Using the My Craft Spot Tiny Doilies metal dies, I created a 3-layer tag with white cardstock and blue vellum. I stamped the top layer with one of the NEW Stampin' Around Summer sentiments. I finished everything off with a couple of layered gems.
Please head over to My Craft Spot to see the wonderfully summery projects created by the rest of the design team. While you're there, remember to leave a comment for Kimberly for your chance to win today's prize: the Stampin' Around Spring stamp set!
