Itâs my pleasure to host the first Inspiration Challenge of June! THIS is the picture that inspired my card.
Most of the fish are going one way & the one fish going the other on my card. Doesnât seem to bother himâ¦heâs smiling! I stamped the background fish w/ teal ink onto some turquoise paper that had been spritzed w/ a little bleach. I added just a touch of color to the fish. The main character was was stamped on white & fussy cut. I added a little stickles to him & to the stamped bubbles. The porthole was die cut (yay! I found a die that fit!). On the teal bg, I embossed it w/ a wave folder & some of it cracked, revealing the white core. So I just went w/ it & sanded off some of the high points to reveal the white.
Thanks so much for looking. It's on my blog w/ Copic colors & product links: The Write Stuff
