In the Bathtub


I found a new great spot for a setting for my cards. In my bathtub. I have to lay down in it, set up my card on the side and contort myself to get a good shot. All in the name of fun, huh? Actually, it's the most action my tub has seen in quite a while, except for those killer dust bunnies that I have protecting it. I think that the orange in this card goes quite nicely with the little floral arrangement I have on the side. I found this challenge on Splitcoast to make a CAS card, which is very difficult for me, as I've mentioned in the past. I like to add, add, add. So on this one I backed off. And I'm happy with the result. Sometimes less is more, unless your a lonely old bathtub.
Enjoy the rest of the day!

  1. Beautiful card! The more I see of the childhood portrait stamp set, the more I think perhaps I need to have it. :)

  2. I love your use of orange - I find it a very difficult color to use! And I always wondered where other crafters/bloggers take shots of their cards.... now I know!
