Birthday Fishes

Finally.. I'm posting this card. I have been down a google wormhole. My card photos are usually just taken from my phone gallery, after publishing them on Instagram. But for some reason Instagram is not saving them to my gallery today. Argh!
So I've had to try and edit these on an old laptop.

Anyhoo - here they are, for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge


I inked up a background panel, and then die-cut the stitched square. Then I popped this back in place, with 2 layers of foam tape for some extra height. I added my whale and dolphin just under the square, and then popped the shark on top. 


Freshly Made Sketches

mft - friends with fins / in and out stitched squares
sentiment - hero arts - I'm a puffer for you
distress ink - faded jeans/salty ocean/mermaid lagoon/tumbled glass

Such a fun card and I love the sentiment! Your fish were perfect for the sketch! Glad you joined us at FMS!

I'm back!! Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog - I noticed you are from Yorkshire - so was my mother! She grew up in Leeds and came to America after the end of WWII. My dad was an AMerican GI stationed in England. I have only been to England once - long ago - to visit family. Spent a summer working as a chambermaid in the QUeen's Hotel in Southport which was run by my mother's cousin - wow ancient history!
