Hi! I made this card for today's CAS challenge, which is a sketch challenge. Using this sketch, my card isn't really all that CAS, but I'm going to submit it anyway!
I thought it would be fun to use a fish motif and my new inverted Spellbinders circles. I ran 3 colors of alcohol ink on glossy cs, then cut it out. Cut out another 1 to mount it on. Then stamped, colored and cut out my fish. Put glossy accents on him (hard to see in the photo). Popped him up on dimensionals after stamping the ferns on the sides and bottom of the glossy circle. Found a piece of dsp that matched seveeral of the colors I used. Cut it to size, and then punched the base; saved the cut out circles and used them as designer bubbles over the fish. Ran the middle panel through the big shot using a dotted ef and mounted it. Added a piece of twine and the card is finished.
TFL and have a swimmingly wonderful day!!

Gail, what a terrific underwater scene you created! Love how you used the punched out circles from the border of the DP to be the air bubbles of the fish! Very creative!
