I originally began this card last weekend for Audrie's 'I'll drink to that' challenge but ran out of time, I still wanted to complete it though so after making a ton of bubbles using every medium I had I finally found a look I liked and so I'm just finishing it now.
I traced & cut out the shape of the card and bubbles using everything from lead pencils to bowls. I distressed them using my SU inks and accented them with a white gel pen and some stickles. I used my Gelatos for the towel and tub and lead pencil then a copic marker for her skin. Using clear embossing I stamped the black card stock & using black embossing stamped my 'Bubble Queen' letters. I stamped my large image on the bubble and then again on extra card stock for two reasons 1) so I could be as messy as I wanted using my gelato and 2) so I could cut out the tub and bubbles and glue them on the original image giving it more depth. I tried getting a side view photo to show the layers but I got a lot of glare every time so only the front view today.

Oh, Patricia, this is fantastic, and I agree that I love the round shape of the card to go with the bubbles. And you can always add the challenge keyword even if it's late. I hope you will. But I'm so glad to see you've jumped right in and are participating in the challenges. Your work is gorgeous! Hugs!

You are simply amazing, patricia. Is there anything you can't do well? I have to think probably nothing. This is such a neat card. Love all the bubbles with that image. You are so darn talented. I want to be just like you when I grow up. Really.
