Something Fishy

Hello everyone! There is a new challenge beginning over at the Stinkin' Inkers today and the theme is:

 "Let the Sparks Fly"

The challenge is to use anything that sparkles on your project. My younger daughter took after her grandparents on both sides of the family and loves to fish. I thought this cute little fish from the Stamps of Life would be perfect for my card. You can find this stamp set here and the matching dies here.


I haven't added a sentiment because I'm not sure what I will use this card for. Could be a birthday, retirement or thinking of you card for a special guy.

I started with a base of red card stock and folded it in half. Then I cut about 2" off the top of the card front. Sailing ship designer paper covers the top of the  inside of the card and I added a piece of white card stock to the bottom of the inside for a sentiment.

Next I added this pretty designer paper that I thought looks like waves to the front flap. The fish was stamped with black in onto a white card stock circle and colored with markers. The mat for the image is a scalloped die cut circle from gray card stock. Last I added the clear gems for bubbles. This was an easy, quick card to complete.

If you have time, stop by the Stinkin' Inkers and check out the inspiration projects by my team members.

While there, why not share your creativity with us?

Have a great day and Happy Crafting?

Hugs,
