Best Fishes Cards with Vanessa and Anja

Hey everyone! Vanessa here with an underwater card using the adorable Best Fishes set combined with the older sets Magical Mermaids and Oceans of Joy. I can't get enough of the lovely scenes you can create with these sets!

First, I created the background for the scene. I inked the front of my card with various brown, green, blue and turquoise Distress Oxides. Then I took off ink with a wet brush, drawing waves with it. Now I added droplets of water and ink.

After everything was dried, I stamped the sentiment. Finally, I stamped all the images onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics, die-cut everything with the matching dies and adhered the elements to the card, raising some with foam tape.

So, I am ready for summer! Hopefully we won't have to wait for long. Thank you for visiting!

Hi everyone, Anja here and today I'm back with a fun underwater scene featuring the Best Fishes Stamps. Aren't these sea creatures just adorable?!

I started with an A2 card base and adhered the orange starfish patterned paper from the Summer Splash 6x6 Paper pack. Next, I stamped the images in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out.

For my water background, I applied aqua, blue and turquoise Alcohol Inks to a piece of Yupo paper. I also sprinkled on some droplets of the blending solution to create random bubbles. I matted the panel on a piece of navy cardstock and adhered it at an angle.

I stamped the sentiment in VersaMark Ink on a black cardstock strip and heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I cut the right end into a fishtail banner shape using my scissors.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Hope to see you again next week!
