Bubble Bath Day - DotMCC-Challenge #11

Hello everyone!

Brrr, it's cold and grey outside! - What could be better than relaxing in a warm, fragrant bath and wrapping yourself in the soft foam!

That's perfect, because this month we celebrate 

Bubble Bath Day 

always on January 8th.

on Day of the Month Card Club!

I used one of my almost very first stamps for this card. It was a little bit forgotten, but thanks to our challenge, I remembered the sweet hippo and brought it back to life in a completely different style! - See the difference!

First I dyed soapy water with blue Brusho pigments and blew bubbles with a straw, applied them here and there on three different panels and let them dry. I took the one I liked best and stamped the bathing hippo - once on the panel and a second time on a piece of card stock. I colored the hippo, fussy cut it and glued it on the one which was already stamped on the panel. I drew the tiles and colored them with felt-tip pens and a water-brush pen. 

I also cut out some extra bubbles from the other panels and glued them all around the hippo and the tub. 

Finally, I added the sentiment, glued the panel on a white base card, whose edges I had previously colored in blue and added Wink of Stella to all the bubbles - ...unfortunately invisible on the photo!

I hope you like it - I'll be back in a few days with more inspiration! Until then I wish you a lot of relaxing bubble baths! ;)
