I'd Like to be... Under the Sea

Hello

I hope this Friday finds you well, and all ready for the Bank Holiday Weekend - the last one till Christmas......🤯

Still it's warm and sunny and hopefully will stay like that for a good few weeks yet!

We're heading under the sea for the Daring Cardmakers this time, and it's had me singing that "Octopuses Garden" song all week!

It's Svenja here and I'm kind of sticking with last week's watery theme. Because...

I'd like to be... under the sea...

I would like your cards to feature any kind of underwater life. Virtual extra brownie points for octopusses (with or without gardens).

Hope this crafty weekend goes swimmingly for y'all.

Info

I startred by using a few pale watery shades of ink to add some colour to my card front.

Next I used a large Studio Light stamp and a slightly darker bleuey-green ink to add the water bubblespattern

I wanted to use a piece of netting as the next layer, but having gone through my 'useful stuff' box twice, I realised I didn't have any, so instead I made a quick trellis template for cutting on the Silhouette Cameo.  After inking it to the greeny colour I was after I scrunched it up in my hands to add some shape and glued it quite 'loosely' onto the card

The seaweed, octopus, fish and crab are all die cut using die sets from
Spellbinders. The seaweed is actually branches from a Cherry Blossom set.

To finish I added tiny googly eyes to the sea creatures, some dots 

of Ice Stickles to some of the water bubbles and a

 silly sentiment, which I'd printed out on the pc
