Hello Everyone...Ti's FRIDAY...
The sun is shinning once again, but better be quick, it will be gone in a minute..don't you just love Spring showers...
Have a cute card to share with you...and tried a new thing...making rings...and they will be appearing over the next few posts..once I learn something new I really do thrash it..
The cute little image is one I have used before from Raising our kids.com love that site...
there she is, dipping her toe in the water,just like a girl...
All coloured up with Faber Castell "stubs"...they are getting a bit low..
Paper pieced her bathing suit with MME "A Mothers Love"...papers.
A close up..the sea foam made with liquid pearls..and Fiskars border Wave punch along the bottom...
And!!....the side view....little starfish MC dies and Sizzix castle, which cut well this time when you use the right plates!!!
The rings are my new thing to do...
Used a 1 3/8 punch, and punch out the circle..then used the 1/1/2 and carefully as I could lined up around the hole left from the previous punch...this gave me lovely thin circles..cool huh!!..and now I will inundate you with them till the novelty wears off...lol..
Going to enter this card at ....

You should never dangle something sparkly in front of me Chrissy. I just spent nearly an hour over at that link looking at ALL the amazing coloring images..LOL.
Your card is adorable. It has that fantastic vintage style to it like See Jane Run. Beautiful work and OHHH.....LOVED your comment about your initials. HAhahaha..did you ever get rid of your son? LOL That was hysterical.
