Hello everyone!

It’s been a lovely sunny day here today and I’ve just been back from work…so I can finally enjoy!Today I would like to share with you a super cute birthday card! I personally think that this “Fishy fun” stamp set from YNS is totally adorable and, of course, the MFT mermaid is simply “Mermazing”! I got the idea for the card layout from YNS current Challenge and the color combination idea from MFT current challenge!And this is the card I came up with!I hope you like it as much as I do!

Quick Instructions:

I cut out a panel the size of my card base and taped the washi tape on the side to create the border I needed for the challenge theme. Then I cut a smaller panel and die cut a circle big enough to fit my scene. I used Broken China Oxide and water splatters to create the water background. Then I staamped the images on white cardstock and colored them with Copics and watercolors. I fussy cut everything leaving a thin border all around to help them pop. I adhered everything down and then used the same Oxide ink to stamp the sentiment. (I love how crisp Oxides stamp). And that completed my card!Easy!
