Today's title couldn't be more appropriate...not only because it pertains to today's card, but also cause I made you wait half the day to see it! I've gotten a little behind this week and I had to work bright & early this morning, so now that I've had more coffee & have made it home, I'm catching up on blogging.
Whoo Hoo! It's release day over at DRS Designs! This card uses a few more of the images released TODAY. Make sure to run over there & take a peek at all of their new releases, especially the new Dustin Pike images as well.
This sentiment & image go together like 2 peas in a pod, don't they?!?!? I love the way this image turned out! I colored it with Prismacolor Pencils and blended the colors with Gamsol. Then I cut it out with an oval Nestie and inked blue around it before I took it out of the die. Then I pained the worm with Burgundy Shimmerz and the hook with Opal Shimmerz for a little sparkle and shine!
The background was created by cutting the light blue cardstock down to size and then stamping the sentiment near the bottom in brown ink. I used my new border punch to create the waves on the edge and then ran it through the Divine Swirls Cuttlebug Folder. I adhered it to dark blue cardstock and then added the copper brads and copper ribbon bow. The card front was adhered to a brown cardstock base.

Super cute image, and I love the sparkle!
Perfect combination of elements -- I especially like how you used the swirl CB on blue paper for a water effect!
tee hee!!! This is SO cute!!! I never thought I'd say this, but "what a cute little worm!"
Now this is just adorable!! I love the fun shimmer and the beautiful "waves" you've created with the texture and border!! So sweet and nicely put together hun!! :)
