Fishing You a Great Day!

This is a super simple card, but I think it turned out really well. Today at 365 Cards the challenge is a "white space" challenge: keep your card blank in the white areas and put your decorations in the black areas. This is also for Cuttlebug Challenges, where the theme is "Under the Sea." I made the card 5"x5" and embossed the whole thing with the Polka Dots embossing folder. I cut out three different sized circles, two of them I cut smaller circles out of so that I would have rings. On the smallest circle I stamped a fish that I found in my stamp stash, I believe it is from Inkadinkado, but I'm not positive. I embossed the middle circle with Swiss Dots and the largest ring I stamped with a Scrappy Mom's sentiment. The stamp is straight, but I curved it on the block to stamp on the ring.

  1. How very cute this is, Paula. Love the "bubbles", and you really captured the white space idea and yet kept that "undone" part as the ocean. Clever !!
