This card made me late to work this morning! LOL. But I had to finish it, because I really wanted to see what it was going to look like. And I love it!
Today's challenge is to "Pop It Up" and Cathy gave us links to quite a few tutorials for inspiration. They all look fun, but I decided to try the 3D Paper Piecing first.
I'm hooked on all things digi lately and this little guy is Snorkel Bunny from Tiddly Inks. I colored the ocean, sky, flippers and arms as the base. Then the next layer is ears, body, and bottom of snorkel. I actually kept them all connected in the center and glued it in as one piece. Then his face, which after I rounded I did end up putting a foam square in the middle of instead of gluing. Then I added Glossy Accents to his mask and almost forget the very tip of his snorkel that's sticking out of the water. It actually wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Maybe the hardest part was not putting Wink of Stella in the water. I always like to sparkle up my water with Wink of Stella, but I decided that's not this bunny's style.

Hope you didn't get in too much trouble for being late, but It was worth finishing this little guy! He is so cute! You did a great job layering his parts and the shiny googles is a great touch! you nailed the coloring of the water to make it look like he is in it and not just on top of it! Nicely done!
