Check out the design teams creations over at Catch the bug.

What a cutie this Rottweiler is.. I colored him with copics. I used Spectrum Noir sparkle brush on the water. I used My favorite things circle die. I took a Stampin up stencil which has a bunch of circles on it and Ranger ink and did the blue circles in the hopes it would look like bath bubbles.. Well that didn't work so I just kept moving the stencil around and adding different Ranger inks till the white was gone and I felt comfortable with the look. I stamped and heat embossed the Sugar Pea sentiments.
