Fintastic Birthday Wishes to You!

Good Morning and Welcome

Meet one of the new stencils for June from A Colorful Life Designs called:

Fishy Frame

These fish look as though they are swimming around in a circle, but there is a perfect open space to add any kind of sentiment.

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I placed a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station and then added the Fishy Frame stencil over that.
• I inked with my Distress Oxides with these colours, varying them as I went along:  Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Blueprint Sketch and some Uncharted Mariner.
• I removed the stencil and diluted some Peacock Feathers DOX ink with water and used that to splatter over the fish.
• When the panel was dry, I placed it into my Misti and stamped the sentiment into the open area.
• I glued the panel onto a piece of mottled blue cardstock and then onto an A2 sized white card base.
• Final step was to add 3 black gems right under the sentiment.

Here is the stencil I used:
