(Hope this photo is OK, it's so bright in my room I can't be sure, but I'll check later on and edit if necessary)
I made THIS CARD for an IC challenge back in December. Before I could send it off, DH insisted I make another fish panel. It's sat on my desk ever since, and as it's our anniversary in a couple of weeks, I thought I'd use it on him - then he can't complain about me sending it to anybody. Details for the fish panel are in the post I've linked to.
Base is 7x5", covered with graduated blue mulberry tissue. I made my frame by cutting two pieces of chipboard for strength. I embossed one with D'vine Swirl, sprayed with silver paint and rubbed in some lustre rub-on in green and copper when the paint was dry. I popped it up on foam and added a couple of shells. HA sentiment cut with double-ended tags, sponged lightly, distress green Stickles round the edge and attached with heart brads. I added silver Liquid Pearls to the brads to make them match the frame a bit better.

Oh my golly, I love this card. It has so much detail and so much to see, I can agree it should be kept in the family! I would case it to make one for myself but I am wayyyyyy too lazy!
