I made this card as the next submission for the CAS Summer DT application. Our task was to create a water-inspired card. I went with this cutie-patootie little fish. I stamped my shadow stamp in blue, stitched in some olive seaweed, stamped and colored my fish, glossed them up and cut them out. I stamped my fish in the water, popped them up and added sparkle to their bubbles. Done (never mind that I tried it on one-layer and smudged ink all over!)
Thanks for looking!

I loved this card (I think it was my favorite in the water challenge!) I was going to share as my favorite, but Susan beat me to it. Great card! Congrats on the DT spot!

This card brought a BIG smile to my face! The stitching for seaweed is brilliant and the clear coat on the fish adds another luscious texture to the card. TFS!

One of my favorite sets! Love this and love the shiny texture and sweet simple sketch. Guess I will hold on to this one a little longer now that I've seen your cute, cute card.

Very cool card - I cased it for your FS week! I love how you did the water - mine wasn't so cool but I think I may try again soon.
