For Carla's WTUI challenge - you can find out all the details on the challenge post HERE. I'm attaching a photo showing the shimmer in the fish when I post my link on the challenge thread.
I went back to the bleach technique I used just a couple of weeks back for WT678 - Foxy Oxi.
To create the background, I used the following DOX inks: faded jeans, salty ocean, mermaid lagoon, and peacock feathers. I stamped the fish directly on these - and I had also stamped them and embossed them on white card, ready to colour, fussy-cut and add to the scene. But my coral border was so bright that I decided to leave them plain, just adding shimmer with an SN clear glitter pen.
Joanna Sheen coral border and seaweed cut from watercolour paper and coloured with Prima Watercolor Confections: Tropicals - thank you, Lorraine.
I added a suitable HA sentiment and as a fleck of gilding flake had drifted on from my desk and looked good, I managed to find a couple more. It's framed with a simple white border.

Adorable little fish with the big smiles. A wonderful water scene.
