Flipper

Hi, this is my second post today.  Scroll down for my lighthouse card.

This card uses the Aquatic cue word at CASology, this week's Muse card and the colors at Color Throwdown - aqua, blue and grey.  I used my new and cute-as-a-button Make a Splash set from Clearly Besotted.

From Michelle's Muse card, I took the basic layout, flipping it upside down; the white-on-white layers; the circular element; the die-cut word and while I didn't have a streamer/balloon string, I did use the water droplets in a similar pattern.  

I sponged some Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers ink onto a scrap piece of white card before white embossing the ripples.  I then took some of the unused sponged piece and die-cut the word and the droplets which I'd white embossed.  I cut a circle from a white panel and popped that up on the card base using foam tape.  

The dolphin was colored with Copics and I had intended to put him on an action wobbler, but completely forgot - doh!  I'll have to see if I can lift him off the card because I think an action wobbler behind him would be a fun touch.

The die-cut word is stacked onto five white layers, giving it lots of dimension.

Thanks for visiting.
