Little Seahorses and a Contest

Hi! Before I get to my card I want to tell you that Sweet Pea is having a fun contest where you can win an entire sheet of Sweet Pea rubber!!! All you have to do is match up the baby pictures of the DT with our adult pictures (and you can see the pictures and get all of the details HERE on the blog). I admit it would be a little tough for me, but why not give it a try (and you can laugh a little at the pictures in the process!!)


For my card today I was determined to do a little more with the background than I have been lately. Funny thing is I had picked a DP with waves that I was excited about using with this underwater beauty and I pretty much covered it all up! I used my scalloped square Nestabilities for the piece under the main image and a Sizzix photo corner die for the corner pieces. They are both covered in stickles and then I added some gems to the corner pieces. The main image is colored with my Copics and the background is colored with Twinkling H2O watercolors.
