The Color Challenge is to use Basic Black, Calypso Coral and Baja Breeze. My base card is Basic Black, I stamped the sentiment (Vintage Verses) in black, and I embossed the coral (By the Tide) with Black EP. I used Baja Breeze for the layer on the black. I stamped the fish (By the Tide) with Calypso Coral, cut it out and colored in the light spaces with the Baja Breeze Marker. The fish is popped up with a dimensional. I got extra ink on the card (AGAIN) when I stamped the sentiment, so I added the starfish bead. Thanks for taking a peek!!

I like how this resembles a collage. And don't you just "hate" it when extra ink appears where it is "not" supposed to be?! Great job in covering it up. Your starfish looks like it was meant to be placed right where it is!

Awesome color for your fish and I love how you popped it up over the seaweed, and used that wonderful feel-good sentiment at the top - Mistakes happen so we add more things to bring attention to the message - great place for your starfish - looks like it was MEANT to be there!!

Glad you got that extra ink on there 'cause I really like your little starfish! Love the fish too. He looks like he is clear the way you colored him to match the bg. TFS

Oh wow! I love this! Love the water plant and that wonderful fish. The way you coloured it makes it look translucent! I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who gets extra ink on an almost finished card!
