PAMPER ME PLEASE!!!!!!

Its Design Team showoff day here at Artful Whimsies! This weeks card features some great stamps form Artful Legacy. You can see some more of this card and other DT cards at http://artfullegacy.blogspot.com/.
I chose the stamps "Bubble Bath", "AHHHHH", and "Day At The Spa".
I think these stamps could work for birthdays, gift cards ideas, made into a tag and attached to bath and spa products, and of course on a great layout of some pampering. My card is a 6 by 6 inch gatefold. You can actually head on over to the Artful Legacy blog on Saturday to see a mini tutorial I did on how to make this type of gatefold card. See ya there!
I used DCWV cardstock, assort. patterned paper, and PTI Select White to stamp on. The border punch is the new Scallop punch that was in the recent Salebration catalog, but I hear it will be for sale in the new big catalog this summer. Yipee!!!, I want to also get the corner punch that matches it. SU oval and scallop ovals are used here, as well as Labels Two from Spellbinders.

The card closes with a sheer purple ribbon, and when opened, reveals these adorable sentiments inside. Border punch was used here also.

This stamp works well with the paper piecing technique. Look how great the tub looks in a pattern!
It would have also looked great with just the SU Crystal Effects over a white tub for shine. Glitter was used on the bubbles, and Spica Gold pen colored in the tub legs.
Would'nt we all like to relax like this lucky girl is doing?
Many thanks for stopping by......
