One Fishy Tail

 Hello

welcome to my little crafting place! 

Today I'm sharing the first of my projects using the August Wax Seal of the Month from Spellbinders - it is soooo cute! 

 I've also used the beautiful Glimmer of the Month set - the background plate is fab, all shiny bubbles, perfect for undersea effects. This time I chose an irridescent turquoise foil aswell as turquoise card and I love the way it changes colour as the light catches it.

The fish tail seal is adorable and I had some fun playing with it, using different colours of wax, different techniques of making them and different finishing and highlighting methods

The photo below shows a bit of my desk after my first practise session.  It's not a beautiful sight but a full desk view would really shock you 😱

I used the top centre seal for this card, I added some gold pen to its tail and dotted different colours on the 'bubbles' too

 I decinded not to use a sentiment at this point, but may add one later.  To finish the card I used 3 sea-shades of waxed twine together and tied knots randomly along until I had the right total length.
