Bugaboo card done another way...

Have you ever made a card and then thought maybe I should redo this card because something seems like it is missing. Well I made this card several different ways.  I just couldn't get it to look the way I wanted it.  Having a bad cold makes you less up for being crafty I think.  Well at least having a bad cold did that to me.  :)
You just want to lay down...

Can't wait to get back to feeling normal.

Today we have a fun challenge at One Stop Craft Challenge blog.  For this challenge use a sticker or two on your project.  Please head over to www.onestopcraftchallenge.blogspot.com and enter your project today!

Here is my DT card for this challenge:

I used Popsicle Tobie for my image from Some Odd Girl.  I really wanted to use a summer theme for my card and I had some cute little popsicle stickers that went perfectly with this image.  The paper has suns all over it so that worked in perfectly too.
