Beach Bums

I made this card for our nanny from the kids.  She is the best thing that has happened to us and my kids had the best summer with her.  She certainly relieved us of much guilt now that my husband and I are both working full-time.  The kids spent lots of time swimming over the summer with her so these cute digis by Whimsie Doodles were perfect for a card for her!




I popped "Leah" up with foam adhesive and added 
some Glossy Accents to the goggles. 

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
Picture Perfect Creations#9  - Summertime theme
Saturday Challenge #148 - Create a scene
Stamps R Us - Anything Goes

Update:  
This card was chosen as the Grand Winner at Picture Perfect Creations and the winner of the Saturday Challenge #148!



Stamps:  Whimsie Doodles Diving Leah and Diving Koale  CS:  PTI white, black, kraft, hawaiian shores, and aqua mist  Tools:  Taylored Expresions Cloud Duo and Wave Border dies, copics  Accessories:  Glossy Accents, white felt
