 The sketch challenge for today can be found here. Sketch Challenge 1107 ~ Wednesday, March 25, 2026 by berlycece at Splitcoaststampers
I started with a piece of white paper that my 4 year old granddaughter painted. I stamped the shark and fish on it and colored them. I colored an embossed panel with a copic marker and a gold metallic pen. Then I pulled gorgeous grape ink over top of the star-like images. I die cut two circles from gold paper to make a port hole. I colored dimensionals with my gold metallic marker to add to the port hole. I stamped the greeting and added it to the bottom of the card. This will go on a patient dinner tray at a local hospital.

It feels strange to say that shark is cute but it is! What a fun card to brighten someone's day. I love it!

I love how you are using the paper your granddaughter has painted. Such a wonderful way to include her in your crafting. Great job on the porthole to view your underwater scene.

Such a joyful underwater scene. The painted background gives the whole card a soft, organic flow, and the way you built the porthole adds so much dimension and shine. The shark and fish look wonderfully animated against that textured panel, and the touches of gold tie everything together beautifully. A bright, uplifting piece that will make its recipient feel seen and cared for.

How wonderful to take your granddaughter's art and expand on it. It's an artistic duet! Such a clever scene, with so many vibrant colors and textures. Great card!
