Three carp, three challenges...
Taylored Expressions LoveFest Challenge was to make a set of 3" x 3" or smaller cards. The Mixed Media Challenge was to use a technique using water, and the Inspiration Challenge took us to Lucinda.com, where I was inspired by this fun Fish Pin.
To make the background, I first sprayed my watercolor paper with water, then dropped on some Broken China Distress Ink. I pushed it around a bit, then added some Shabby Shutters. After it dried, I stamped a carp using Momento ink. The ink didn't show up, so I outlined the stamped image with a Copic drawing pen. Stamped two more using Versafine ink, punched out the circles and outlined with a black Copic marker.
