Hello there!

I love making Holiday cards, especially cards with holiday critters! For this card, I used the Christmas Fishes and Ho-Ho-Holidays images to create this fun under water christmas eve scene! lol! 
I colored all of the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brushes and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them out! I added some details with a white gel pen, and also some chunky glitter to add to the festiveness!

For the background, I started by ink blending with Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers and Salvaged Patina. Then I used the same colors but added it to the same areas with a paintbrush and some water. Once that was dry, I did more ink blending with the same colors. That process adds to the extra saturation and boldness of the colors! Love it!

The sentiment was heat embossed in white onto Black Licorice Cardstock and then die cut out with the Fancy Wavy Banners.
