You're Fintastic

Sure!!! All of my friends are Fintastic :)

I had this scene ever since I saw this stamp by Paper Smooches and when I saw the current challenge at Paper Smooches Sparks. I knew, what I want to do and it came out exactly how I had imagined. It's such a happy feeling. Love my own creation...lol.

Here is the inspiration photo for the ocean scene and I picked the colors from this weeks Runway Inspired Challenge (ocean blue, teal, orange and a bit of purple on white base):



So to create the underwater scene, I used some distress inks and WOW embossing powders. I colored the fishes using Copics and applied some glitter.



PlayiNG along the following challenges:

Paper Smooches Sparks: Ocean
Wow Embossing Powder: Summer (an underwater scene is just perfect)
Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Anything Goes

It's going to rain tomorrow so I have to finish a few things now :)

Supplies: 
Cardstock: (white) Neenah, (watercolor) Canson; Stamps: (Briny Blue, Cutasaures) Paper Smooches; Ink: (VersaMark) Tsukineko, (Distress inks) Ranger Industries; Embossing powder: (white, paprika, grape) WOW
