Birthday Fishes Flip It Card

Hello there!  Today's card is made with something I've had in my stash for almost a year.  Creative Keepsakes Convention comes to town and entry into the Vendor Fair includes an Attendance Prize bucket.  I won a prize from Mud Puddles and it included sand, sand glue along with other goodies from their booth.  Since I was using Gill Friends from My Favorite Things, I pulled out the Mud Puddles for the bottom of my ocean.

My base is the Circle Flip-it from The Stamps of Life.  Two colors of blue card stock ran through my Sizzix Big Shot and I inked the edges with Faded Jeans.  Also used that same ink for the air bubbles from You Are Sublime.  All of my fishes were colored with Copic Markers and cut with coordinating dies.  A white signo pen adds details.  Now for the ocean floor, I spread the sand and shell glue along the bottom and sprinkled on Tahiti sand and lightly patted into the glue.  After it dried, I arranged my fishes and plants, being careful to hide some fishes behind the circle.  Then I stamped air bubbles and filled them with glossy accents.  The sentiment was stamped with faded jeans and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  A stardust pen lines the edge of the strip.

Have a great day and keep on crafting!
