OCS for August...

I am amazed with myself...as I am always right on time with my OCS every month. but this time I had a vision on what I wanted to create and with that I finished my card...early! woo-hoo! here is the picture of it. I made it purple...my favorite color...it was fun to make because I got to use my favorite color. I love the new GF stamp set! this one is sitting! for those of you who know me...I am into the sitting ones right now. I love to create with them. okay...on to my card! so I took a layout that I saw on Tropical Dreams blog. I looked at it and then made it into my own. Tammi also has a link to Papercrafts by Rach that shows you "out of the frame" nestie tutorial. this is so neat! I love how you don't have to cut off a part of the picture/image. you just cut around it! I used dew drops, ribbon, nesties, circle punches, SU DP, swirl die cut and my favorite prima flowers. I really had a fun time making this card!
here you can see up closer...the image is part of the oval but her feet hang out. I think this is so cool! I need to make more like this.
hope everyone is having a great week!
hope my OCS partner will like this! I sent it to her today!
thanks for stopping by!
