I'm hoping this will work now..hard time uploading. I've been waiting all day to make a card....geez....had faucet spray me in the face with water....had to get a plumber over here to fix that and other drippy things...anyway.... he left so I could make my Australia Day card...I made my own version of the Great Barrier Reef...hope you like it. What a fun challenge!!

I'm sorry you had such trouble, I had it myself only at least it was just getting in in the first place, I wasn't losing my write-up. That is even more frustrating.... and you had your tap/faucet troubles too! You certainly created a great card, it reminds me of the diving scenes in one of my favourite Tintin books, and I totally love those little skeleton fish!!

How clever are you Pol, your title is great and so is every inch of this amazing underwater scene. The colours and texture look amazing. Sorry you had a bad day, thankfully it didn't wipe out your mojo. Love this to bits.

Your background is spectacular, Polly! I love how you muted the elements just as if it were underwater. Your diver is awesome and so is your fish. Love this!

You are so very clever to go deep down under and create such a wonderful reef scene! All of it is great! I'm knowing just what you went through trying to upload. I tried 6 times last night and finally gave up! Maybe I'll give it a try today and see what happens. Glad you stuck with it so we could see your marvelous card!

Polly, Your underwater scene is absolutely fantastic!! All the colorful details within the water are true- to-life highlighting 'Diver Dan' finding his treasure chest of gold!!! Love every inch including the scalloped edge.
