A WHALE of a Challenge!

Wow. I am such a dork. HA! But, FOR REALS, who could possibly resist using THAT title, when presenting THIS card? Ready?

Wait for it...


Wishing You a Whale of a Great Birthday!

BAZINGA! Just say'n.

We have a brand new Design Team Challenge over at Gourmet Rubber Stamps and this time it is all about SHAPES! Not necessarily shaped cards, although, that is, of course, welcome, but also using shapes ON the card designs. I chose to do a bit of both with my Whale of a Card! (NO! I WILL NOT quit doing that. I like it. So there!) I created a scalloped circle card using my Spellbinder's dies and then paper pieced those squares to give the whale a quilted look! I love how cute he turned out!

I used the adorable Merry Marine set for my card! I love this set! It is just TOO CUTE!!!

Head on over to the Gourmet Rubber Stamps blog to check out what the other designers have created and be INSPIRED!
