This is my sample for Toni's WTUI challenge, Tents to You. This was the perfect time to try the Acetate Tent tutorial.
Hope you'll play along with the challenge.
Following the tutorial, I created the card base and stamped the sentiment on the top fold. Adhered a water pp to the back of the card base. I used a scallops border to die cut narrow strips for waves, die cut two Deep Sea Corners from watercolor paper, trimmed to fit the card and watercolored. Stamped the Laurel Burch fish on acetate with Stazon and colored the opposite side. I get the best results on acetate with Sharpies. Adhered the acetate to the card base and layered on the pieces to complete. TFL

Wonderful acetate tent card! Love the idea of an underwater scene. So cute. The blue waves really make it. Love those die-cut squid. A lot of amazing details. This card is extra special!

This is a marvelous seascape - the blend of stamped images with die cuts is beautiful and the tenting with acetate adds even more depth to this already adorable scene.
