I was a little intimidated by the site for today...DANIEL MAHER STUDIO....at first. But I decided to do another card and try some techniques and supplies I have never done before. I went out and bought some glossy CS and came home to use some alcohol inks I have never touched. I should have worn latex gloves!! Tonight I will be sashaying around with aqua fingers! Not good!
I really didn't pattern this card after any specific stained glass panel, but rather the feeling I had from many of the fish-oriented ones. I liked the medallions, so I thought porthole. I guess the fish is closest to the one in THIS PANEL. I spritzed and sprayed and daubed inks around...even got out one of my old SU wheels with fish on it for a little bg atmosphere. I truly had fun playing.

Well, Sally, those pretty aqua fingers of your designed a very cool looking card! Your bg turned out beautifully! I love the metallic paper on the porthole! What a great design!

I love this! That fish just makes me smile. Great job on the alcohol inks, I used them too. If you want to get rid of your aqua fingers, use the blending solution or alcohol, the rubbing kind, to clean them up. hehe Love your design here. This is fabulous! TFS :0)

What a cute fishy. Is that a "smug" look? I love it. Also really like your BG. It looks like flattened corrugated cardboard. I would have never thought of that.
