I am so spoiled.... and I'm LOVIN EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!! Did you guys hear about the cruise?????!!!!!???? I saw it, thought how awesome it would be.... became jealous of those who were going to go.... and then called the hubby at work. I said, "Ummm... how much do you love me?" He got a little nervous with that one. So I went on... "You know how I love Papertrey?" Yeah... he says... "And... you know how I love the Bellas?" Yeah... (the tone gets a little more inquisitive). And... "You know how I love anything by Gina K?" What -- spit it out! He says. "Well... there's this cruise... and they're all hosting it and... and...." Go! He says. "What?!? Are you serious?" Yeah... you should do it, you'd love it! He answers.
So should I be ecstatic or scared? Either way, I BOOKED! Agh!!! All of the girls from Paper Pretties are going and it's going to be the BEST time I've ever had! I'm seriously dying here! A week of stamping with my FAVORITE companies as the hosts? Agh!!! I never get to do anything.. and now I'm going to CHA in Feb. and cruising in October! Plus, my birthday is during the cruise! How fun is that! Agh!!!!
Ok... so let me float back down on Earth and tell you about this card! So.... I've been shopping at Paper Pretties because they're having some killer sales! I just got a big box and decided to share a little of it with you guys!
This is my first Rubber Romance stamp... and I have to say I'm hooked! They are just so feminine! And with a house full of boys, I love a little glam! I love how you can now buy these mounted, unmounted, and even in a smaller ATC size.
I cut out parts and pieces, & added dimensionals to give it some depth. Of course (wink wink) I used Copics to color her in... and a Copic Spica pen to give this gal some shiny hair. I wish you could see it in person! It IS SO sparkly! I just ordered every other color of Spicas because they are THAT good! I added stickles to the bubbles to make them shimmer too!
The sentiment is from MFT's set 'Let's Hear it for the Boys'. Hey! Boys can't have all the fun! I think it works perfectly for this ultra fem card too!
I added some of this yummy printed paper to the card to give the illusion of wallpaper! The card base is by Rubber Soul (Cocoa Note card). I love that the outside is a rich color and the inside is bright and white... perfect for writing a message!
I hope to have you all join us on the cruise! We're going to have 'Stampin In Your Jammies' ON THE CRUISE! It's going to be a blast!!!!
I tried to link all of the supplies that I used on the card. Please message me if you have any questions!!!

Oh Julie, how wonderful for you to get to go on the cruise. I was giving it some serious thought yesterday when I first saw the message. I might still be able to swing it. I love your card. That is so cute.
ReplyDeleteYippppeeee!!!! I know, I can't stop floating on air either! SO EXCITING! But we have to wait a year?!!??! TORTURE!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the card! Maybe I will buy that one too...LOL. I am so jealous, I brought up the cruise to my guy and he was like...."Umm...I would never go on that." Plus we already went on that criuse (destination wise) about 2 years ago. Have a great time! I want to hear all about that!
