This is my card for Kathy's Laughter is The Best Medicine challenge.
In fact, I made two - the second one will go to Deanna for this week's MMPT Time For an Intervention challenge. Double appropriate since Deanna is a long-time cancer sufferer. I'd thought of using this stamp for her, and then came up with a word-play sentiment which would turn it into a humorous card.
I stamped Babs and coloured her. Then I drew the tiles in, and was so tired I made a mistake with the spacing on BOTH cards, sigh...I painted a little colour into the tiles and then stamped a flower from an old, old Basic Grey set. Stickles on the bubbles, a layer of pink for matting, a computer-generated sentiment and I'm calling it done, two for the price of one ;-).
You can find the Master Challenge thread with all the HYCCT challenges HERE, and the chat thread is HERE
We do hope you'll join in this fun month of challenges for our 5th annual Hope You Can Cling To card drive, with plenty of prizes for those who participate!

Sabrina, what a masterpiece. I didn't realize you actually drew all those tiles- so awesome. Your gal is so pretty perched in her old-fashioned tub, even if she is in 'hot water'. Love those sparkly bubbles floating all around. Thanks so much for creating something perfect for our humor challenge.

Oh sweet friend, this put such a smile on my face as it will for those who receive it. So fun. What a wonderful bg scene you made. I wouldn't have noticed anything wrong with the tiles and the spacing until you mentioned it and I still don't think there is. Super duper job, the coloring and shading and little flowers make it look so cute...and always did love the old style tubs like that, I will join Babs anytime...looks relaxing...TFS..:0)
