I made this for the F4A challenge from the nail art pinterest board. GREAT BOARD!! I really like that one--I may even have to do my nails.
Ok, I may have actually cheated on this card. Upon looking at the board I saw some sealife which made me think of this fish image. I actually colored it last summer, but hadn't turned it into a card yet. The same goes for the bg. I stamped and embossed it in white ???? I don't even remember when. Anyway, I decided to put them together. I did color the bg with spectrum noirs too. I'm not real sure if the color shows well. It is a really light blue and light turquoise color.

I actually LOVE when an inspiration board helps me to put together saved background tries and leftover die cuts and such. It makes me feel 'green' I guess....but also helps me use up my pieces (I have a lot of stray pieces too! LOL) It definitely is NOT cheating because your pieces came together 'because of' the inspiration site...which is definitely not the same as just uploading an old card to the gallery! LOL Your card is a favorite for me today!

Hey, it doesn't matter when you colored the image or made the bg. What matters is that you had something that perfectly reflects where your inspiration came from. Great wildly bold colors on those fish. Neat card.

I am with Anne, it does not matter when you colored the image, just how it inspired your card. Super stunning card and fantastic take on your inspiration. Beautifully done!
