Lady Sings the Blues

I made this card for the MFT, Who's that girl challenge. The challenge was to use the Time for Bubbly set, the colors had to be mostly blue. You also had to use 4 brads and ribbon.
It seems that for the challenges they are using their older released sets, which is perfect for me...I have 6 or 7 of them. It made me take them out and look at them again! LOL! They all need some love and this fits right into my plan of using items that I already have!
About this card...it was fun to make. I paper pieced the bathtub, the mirror frame and the rug. Paper piecing is really not hard to do. All you need is good paper snips to cut out the image that you want to piece on! I stamped the image on white card stock (I found some 110lb cardstock made by Zerox which is working out really well) and then stamped the same image again on the dp and blue bayou card stock. I cut out what I wanted to use on my main image. I water colored the floor and the background on the image, added some rhinestones for the bubbles, brads and some organza ribbon. Did you know that if you use your heat tool on the ribbon it will curl it up a little? Be careful if you try this, it will melt! lol
Have a great day!
