All details about this challenge are on the IO post HERE, along with links to the other designer's posts so you can see their projects. For my card, I used two of the new Summer Release stamps.
Fishies CL958
Dream In Colors
I have a stencil in my stash that has four sections of animal prints. I chose the zebra print section and created a background panel. I brushed on some blue Tim Holtz distress ink, then I stenciled more of the ink onto the background with the zebra panel. I thought this kind of looked like water ripples, so I went with it.
I stamped the Fishies CL958 onto some scraps, colored them with Polychromos, then fussy-cut them and added them to the background panel with foam tape. I stamped the verse Dream In Colors D12022 with VersaFine Claire nocturne ink.
I added the panel to a blue card front with foam tape for additional dimension, adding a yellow strip down the side. Some sparkling crystals finish the front.
Inside: I just stamped some of the Fishies, leaving room for a note, and added some strips of the blue and yellow card stock.

I was reading an interiors magazine yesterday, which said that blue and yellow is the hot new colour combo! I love this fishy scene and the little water drops. Thanks for joining The Library.
ReplyDeleteSo super cute with the wonderful fish and sentiment.
