I love Angel Fish…we used to have an aquarium that was my husbands…but I got SICK of having to clean it cuz’ no one else did so we got rid of it. Hubby wants another but I say NOOOO cuz I end up taking care of this stuff…ugh and me no likey cleaning tanks LOL. But I like to LOOK at pretty fish I colored this angel fish (reminds me of Dorie in "Finding Nemo" talking whale heehee) in blues and yellow Copics after looking them up on Google LOL…but they come in other colors too. The seaweed was colored with Copics as well and then I added a coat of Crystal Lacquer to make the fish shiny and some Stickles around the water for more shimmer.
The second card uses the new set “Enjoy the Journey” illustrated by Rupa Shevde which has some awesome images and sentiments in fun fonts! I used scrap papers for this card…man I love that since my scrap box is overflowing LOL! I like the pop of hot pink with the vintage krafty brown colors. The tag & envie is by 7Gypsies and I stamped the image on it then added shading, the sentiment and paper piecings. The swirls are a Magnolia Doohickey die. Bow easy on the bow and a pearl to top it all off.
Ok hope you liked these projects today and now you need to continue hopping for more inspiration from the fab ladies below!!
