It was a bright sunny day today here in the Northwest - a perfect Friday, and the bright sun put me in the mood for a bright and happy card. And I had the perfect set - the new Ippity Fishy Pholosophy.
I love the bright colors in the Basic Grey Lime Rickey collection, and I thought this circle pattern was perfect for a fun fishy card! I created the background for the sentiment by stamping the coral using versamark ink on SU Certainly Celery cardstock. I also stamped the leaves to create the pattern on the bottom of card using SU Pumpkin Pie ink. Then it was time to create the fishies - I wanted to make them look as if they were swimming across the card. I started by stamping them with Palette Noir Hybrid ink and cutting them out. I then coated them with crystal effects which not only gave them a shiney finish, but also stiffened them so that I could bend them for dimension. I atached them with some dimensionals, and finished the card off with some crystal brads. This card makes me smile, and I hope it brings some sunshine into everyone's day! Happy Stamping!
