Today's card is for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #446 and the theme was to Create a Slimline Card Vertical or Horizontal. (3 1/2" x 8 1/2"). Adding my card to Stamping Sensations August Challenge - Make it Masculine.
I smooshed the background with Balmy Blue ink, waited till it dried and then used Markers direct to the stamp before stamping the Seaweed. I stamped the Jelly Fish, Star Fish and Heat embossed the Sentiment with White embossing powder. The background behind the Sentiment was sponged with some more Balmy Blue ink to make it stand out more. The school of small fish were Silver embossed. I Fussy Cut the Turtle and Whales from Designer Paper mounting the two larger ones with dimensionals. I repeated some of these steps for the inside of my card.
Thanks for dropping by today, lovely to see you here!
Hugs

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful undersea world! Those are some of the prettiest sea critters I have seen! Thanks so much for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
ReplyDeleteWow! You created such an amazing under-the-sea scene. "I'd like to be under the sea, in an octopus' garden in the shade ..." comes to my mind. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches.
