I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE IN MY BUBBLE (1)

Card sketches and color inspirations are always the most difficult challenges for my for some reason. I think I feel a bit limited with what I can do. But with Lawn Fawnatics newest Card Sketch challenge, I had many ideas. Here is one of them, that I created with the Bubbles of Joy stamp set.



For the background, I did some soft and simple blending, using the Bubbles Stencil. I used the Speckled Egg and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks. 

I added a banner that I die cut from Black Licorice cardstock. I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment onto it.



I stamped the images and colored them with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:
Mice: W0 - W2 - W3/ E11 - E04
Bubbles: RV10 - R83 - 0/ BG000 - B00 - 0
