Today I made another underwater scene using adorable sea creatures from Your Next Stamp - Sea Creatures Set Two. I coloured them with Bic Mark-its and then die-cut with the coordinating dies. Check out the cool background! Colouring pages are all the rage now and I just won this one from Digistamps4Joy (thank you, Margy!). It's called Underwater Fantasy. This will be a lot of fun to colour but in the meantime it makes a great background! I resized it to fit my card and then die-cut with Gina Marie Designs Stitched Rectangles.
The sentiment is from Your Next Stamp - Woodland Cuties. I heat-embossed it in white on a black scrap, die-cut it with Memory Box Pinpoint Rectangle Layers, and popped it up with foam tape.
I was inspired by the sketch at Your Next Stamp Challenge 44:
I adhered the cute sea creatures and then finished off the card with a number of sequins from my stash to mimic the sketch.
