Fishy Card ~ Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

Welcome to the sketch challenge from the Atlantic Hearts team! Each week we have a new sketch for you to create with and this week is a fun one to try.

I paired the sketch with our April Stamp of the Month: O-fish-ally Awesome. This is a must have stamp set because you can do so much with it! It's like having an aquarium at your fingertips. For this sketch I decided to use the circle element like a porthole giving a peek into an underwater world. the porthole was cut from one of our Thin cut dies making it nice and easy. I used shimmer brushes on the gold coins and shells. The bubbles were stamped in 2nd generation ink. This means I inked the stamp, stamped on scrap paper, then stamped on the cardstock without inking again. It softened the dark blue ink for the bubbles. The same technique was used to stamp the crab.

Being the April Stamp of the Month, O-fish-ally Awesome is only available from April 1 - 31st. After that it's gone, gone, gone! You can even get this stamp set for only $5 with a qualifying purchase! Full details are on my website under Promotions.
