I made this card Friday, but wasn't that pleased with it. So I set it aside. Kept taking a peek at it and decided what the heck. Everyone makes a flop once in awhile. So today I am sharing one of my flops. Please go easy on me. Remember, I don't feel good. hehe.......the card.....
All stamps are from Rubbernecker Stamps except the worm, I drew him. I stamped with versa mark the fish then colored with chalk pastels. Cut out using a circle punch, then sponged color on the edges, added some doodling and black pen to make them stand out a little more.
The bubbles were also stamped with versa mark and then chalked. The fish bowl was stamped on acetate, colored behind with copics then put on my scene to look like it had spilled into the water.
For my angle part, I stamped the weed looking things at an angle on the bottom left corner with versa mark and chalked with pastels.
Sponged more blue for the water and yellow and orange for the sky. Put this all on a purple card I had just sitting around.
Well, there you have it. A flop.....it happens!........TFL :0)

Dr. Seuss would say "Its not a flop, a flop it's not!" If you were to ask me, I'd say it's another fun and zany Mutnik creation. Love those fish - free at last, free at last! Thanks for the grin!

I love how the worm is on the inside and the fish on the outside.. My son and I have been fishing so much lately.. In the lake not the bowl.. I think this is really fun and it shows your sense of adventure in making something unique.. UNIQUE not floppy..hugs.
