Today Mothermark has given us a beautiful teapot to use as our inspiration. She said it reminded her of I Dream of Jeanie.... Well I went that route...LOL
I DID NOT come up with this idea for this bikini card. I got the pattern from a stamping party I attended. If it is anyone's original idea let me know and I will give full credit.
It would be a great convention card. It is really easy. Just used my punches.
Had to add a body piercing of course. Super fun. Come join our tea party. Maybe we could all wear our bathing attire..

Cute card, Dawn. I guess all the running has paid off! LOL
I'm going to try to come to the party a little later, but it WON'T be in bathing attire! Even though I reached my goal at Weight Watcher's yesterday, I'm not ready to bear it all. I will definitely try making a card like this though - I think it's super cute and creative.

Oh so cute! I like the way you think. You certainly colored outside the box this week. I'll be coming to the party but in more traditional clothes. At my age I don't think you would want me to wear a bikini. It wouldn't be pretty!

Super cute bikini card, Dawn! Love the figure on this gal! Great paper and belly bling! You sure don't want me wearing a swimsuit to the party! EEEEWWWW! I'll try to find something flowy, though!

My body is BETTER! Snort! Hey, one never knows....I coulda had my three wishes granted by the Genie before you all even got here!
1. Be skinnier
2. Be thinner
3. Not be fat!
Funny, how those are my wishes but put a cupcake in front of me and that's all she wrote! Giggle!
This would be a great card for a make and take or convention card! It is just adorable. I love how you got the bling on there. I am tickled that you girl doesn't have a head either. Our girls can hang out together at the teaparty since they have that in common!
You were quick to post a card and a precious one at that! Note, there is no talk of food just yet. Its cuz we know we have to wear bikinis and Genie pants....Snort!
Whisper: (That'll be the day!)
Thanks for coming again Dawn....thanks for the link and a special thank you once again for my little pink and white polka dotted paper teapot, card and charms! Whoo Hoo!

Dawn, what a cute card. So creative. I used to have a body like this 20 years and 4 kids ago... well, minus the piercing. I like how you got the stripes on the bikini.
