It has been a while since I last stamped. With finishing the cleanup of our old house getting it ready for renters and my mom visiting me for a week, I have not had the time to sit and stamp. I actually got a chance to finally make a card yesterday, but I wasn't finished with it until night time. Since my camera takes horrible pictures at night in my new house, I decided to wait until today to take a good pic and upload it.
This is for yesterday's Technique Challenge 206 - Recessed Window.
All of the stamps are High Hopes Stamps. I colored my ocean bottom using the technique Black Magic. I used my Watercolor Pencils and mineral spirits on dark paper. I used Prisma Color Pencils and mineral spirits to color the diver and the oyster. I also paper toled them. I added a pearl to the oyster.

I think it is very cute. Love the way you colored the images.

I have tried this and folded everything, but that means I have a raised window without the corners of the card being down to cover the raised edge - does that make sense? How do you put down the corners of the card (not the window) so you have a finished card without being able to see the raised edges, but seeing only the recessed window? I guess like a box top.
