As some of you know, I work for a school, one of our teachers applied for a grant and won. The grant is from a gentleman in Hawaii who is donating money to our Science Dept so that we can have an aquarium.
I made this as a Thank you to him..
Stamps: Stampin Up: Fishy Friends, Very Punny,
Whipper Snapper: Hooked Worm
All Night Media: no name but I'm calling it Sea Grass
SU Markers: Certainly Celery, So Saffron, Real Red, and Barely Banana
Ink: Soft Sky & Creamy Caramel, Old Olive
Paper: Soft Sky, Old Olive & Basic Black
Embellishments: Black Self-Adhesive Rhinestones
Each Image was first stamped in Versa Marker, then Staz-On and then I placed clear embossing powder on it and heat embossed. I colored in the images with SU markers, then used the Versamarker Pen staying in the lines then again placed clear embossing powder over the image and heat embossed. This allows you to brayer right over the image so that it does not pick up any of the color.
For the sea grass again I first stamped it on the Versa Marker Pad, then in Old Olive, placed clear embossing powder on them and heat embossed.
Thanks for looking and hope you like it
