Childhood Memories

Happy Monday morning to everyone! Today I'm going to share a card I made for my niece as she's getting her tonsils out today ... poor thing. So I remember when I had my tonsils taken out and I also remember how painful it was. The one good thing I remember about it was all the Popsicles I was allowed to have! That brings me to the challenge I participated in for this card. I kind of killed two birds with one stone. Southern Girls Challenge this time around is make something that reflects a childhood memory, and that's what I did! hehehe. Here is what I came up with ...

I used an older set that I have from designer Kim Hughes called Comforting Hugs. I thought it was a perfect image to use. I coloured the Popsicles/ice cream with copics and then covered them with 3D Crystal Lacquer to give them a glossy shiny look. Once dried, I cut them out and placed them on a white panel made from Small Labels from Spellbinders. The background paper is from Stella Rose -Gertie. I placed some dew drops from the Robin's Nest in each of the corners. I think that's about it ... a pretty simple layout, but I think my almost 7yr. old niece will love it! Here's a close up as usual but I don't think you can tell that I added lacquer to the Popsicles/ice cream except for some really, really small bubbles.



Well that's it for today ... I hope you enjoyed your little visit and thank you for stopping by!

Until next time,
