Bugaboo's Christmas in July - Day 5

imageDay 5 is a bingo challenge. I chose the top horizontal row of Bugaboo image + funny sentiment + embossing.
I kept this clean, only using 2 gems as embellishments to decorate Stella's earrings. She's colored with Promarkers and I gave her hat some glitter. The sentiment is part of the set, but without the speech bubble frame.
I used an embossing folder that came free with a magazine. It's a border one, but I used it several times, avoiding to put my paper in the same place within the folder for a more random pattern. I mounted it onto panels of red paper and silver mirri card.

This card is for these challenges:
1) Catch The Bug - Bingo (Day 5)
2) Crafting with Dragonflies - #30 CAS
3) Inky Chicks - #33 Christmas in July
4) Completely Christmas - #20 Anything Goes

    This is so funny. I saw some ideas for that sentiment on pinterest...most had sexy ladies...I like your version better!!!

    Great card...off to work in the garden as it is slightly cooler today (24 or so) and that is 10 degrees cooler than it has been so a good day to spend time weeding, and tying up the perennials that need staked!

    I am so ready to downsize...I am too old to crawl about in a garden! I just want a nice tidy little flower bed and a huge patio!

    This is such a fun Christmas card Pia, I love the way you have put the sentiment in a speech bubble and your embossed background is perfect.

    I really like the white space with the texture from the embossing. It makes your image pop right out and is a great focal point. X
