Over at the In a Sweet Pea Dream the challenge this fortnight is "under the sea". For my card I have used Ching-Chou Kuik's Koi image. Oh I so wish I could draw like this as the image is beautiful. I have used various scraps of backing paper from my stash including some from magazine freebies. The stamped image has been coloured in with Promarkers and highlighted in areas by my Sakura Stardust clear pen. I have then cue it out with one of my Nestabilities dies. I have raised the image on a purple alcohol inks background. When I first got into stamping just over a year ago I would NEVER have dreamed of using alcohol inks but I quite like having a play with these now and then. I used my Adirondack Blending Solution to try and get some wavy shapes in the ink to replicate the waves of the sea. The card is finished off with a sentiment off the computer, ribbon, card candy, star brad and three fabric flowers which I bought from our Woolworths when it was shutting down over two years ago.
