Bubble Bath Swissie

Hi Crafty Friends,
It's NEW Release time at C.C Designs! Today, I'm showcasing a PERFECT set for Mother's Day gifts and cards. How cute is Bubble Bath Swissie? Since many of us are still on lock down from COVID-19 how about giving mom a "relaxing" card or a gift coupon of "me" time to de-stress. I used the NEW C.C Designs Dies to frame my first card and some funky blue vellum for the backdrop in my second card. And of course I have some matching pics of my darling nephews taking a bubble bath! Set your alarm. Release is LIVE tomorrow!

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: Do you like bubbly baths? Do you still take them?
A: Me? I used to LOVE them as a kid, but now I don't have the patience to just sit in the tub.
