This time I was mostly inspired by the sketch, but I also carried across the bright colors from the photo to come up with this card:
These fish just crack me up! I have been eyeing up this set for ages now and finally bought it. I stamped and colored the fish with Copics before die-cutting them and coloring them up with clear Wink of Stella.
For the background, I die-cut the Waves Cover Plate with Hawaiian Shores cardstock and adhered it horizontally across a white card base. I then die-cut another one from scrap card and used it as a stencil, sponging on Peacock Feathers, Broken China and Cracked Pistachio inks onto a die-cut circle. I then matched up the "waves" with the bottom layer and adhered the circle down. The fish are popped up on foam tape.
