I knew I wanted to make some charms for this week's inspiration challenge, so I inked various fish in Versamark and Chalk ink, and embossed them with Ranger Bridal EP for a little shimmer before cutting them out. I punched a hole in the top of each fish and attached a jump ring.
My "ocean" is marbled wrapping paper that I embossed with my Cuttlebug Shell Collage embossing folder. I attached the wrapping paper to white cardstock to make it more sturdy and then wrapped silver metallic cord around it multiple times in a random pattern. I attached that piece to a silver card base and then attached all of my swimming fish to the cord. My sentiment is the tiny "hope" charm hanging in the upper right.
