A birthday card today with an underwater theme.
The embossing folder is a new one I bought recently, Creative Expressions 'Ocean Waves'. I thought it would make a lovely background, particularly for the MB 'Oceana Corner' die cut. The die cut is embossed to show up the markings on the shells and fish. A few of the fish and bubbles cut separately and I've added these in the spaces. I cut one of the loose fish three extra times and attached them swimming away at the top of the card.
I am joining in the following challenges:
That's a fabulous embossing folder which might have to join my collection!! Love the 'fishy' scene you've made.
