Watercolor Fish Friendship Card

 


Today's card uses the new release Under the Sea Set #2 from Rubbernecker Stamps to make this fun summer card.  Be sure to read on to see how the waves were made!

Here's how my card was made-
  • Die-cut blue cardstock 4" x 5 1/4" with the Waves Die Cut about 1/3 from the top.
  • Use the top portion that was cut off like a stencil and leaving the top of the wave panel un-inked, start applying blue inks from the Color Fuse Inks #8 Set starting with the lightest color and move the "stencil" down each time you go darker.

  • Glue the waves to a white cardstock panel 4" x 5 1/4" using the Dual Tip Glue Pen from Home and Hobby by Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.
  • Stamp the sentiment from the Under the Sea #2 with Onyx Black Ink and emboss with clear embossing powder from Stampendous.



  • Glue this to a light blue card using the same adhesive.
  • Stamp the fish from the Under the Sea #2 Set with black ink on watercolor paper and emboss with clear embossing powder. 
  • Watercolor the fish and cut them out.
  • Pop up the fish with 3D Foam Adhesive Squares as shown.
  • Glue on blue and clear Dew Drops for the bubbles above the fish.
  • Add a seashell sequin near the sentiment.


Have a crafty day!

Now we will put this all together by layering the brick panel to a slightly larger black cardstock panel and this was popped up on a white cardstock panel that has been glued to a green square card.


Lasty stamp "Thankful" from the Kittie Say Phrases #1 on a strip of white cardstock with black ink pop this up diagonally on the bottom of the stem and add a black and white bow made from bakers' twine.
