CC642 - Barbara's (bejoyce) Color Challenge yesterday asked for use of SU Tranquil Tide, Silver, & Pool Party, with "Christmas in July" as dessert! I passed on dessert to create an "underwater adventure" card. I do not own SU's Tranquil Tide; therefore, I substituted Emerald Envy.
SC652 - Today's sketch includes five panels plus a sentiment. My card base is made from SU Pool Party card stock, the first panel is SU Emerald Envy, second is SU Brushed Silver, and third is a panel I created using Hero Arts supplies (from monthly kit) to develop an underwater scene. Panels four and five are the die cut seaweed and mermaid, on which I used the Inlay Technique. The seaweed was die cut from a sparkly paper included in the kit.
Enjoy! Thanks for viewing and commenting!!
