Inspired by the nautical colours from this weeks CASual Fridays Challenge, this versatile i-Spy Sketch, and The Paper Players Tic Tac Toe - Blue / Dry Embossing / Masculine, I thought I'd try a technique new to me, involving dry embossing a strip of watercolour paper, using my bubble border embossing folder, then wet embossing the raised sections using my Versamark Clear Embossing pen and clear embossing powder, before over-spraying the dampened watercolour paper with Dylusions Fresh Lime and Vibrant Turquoise, and a couple of drops of Sapphire Glimmer Mist. The Alley Way Stamps Castaway fish was stamped in Versamark Watermark Ink then heat embossed with Denim Zing, and watercoloured in Dylusions Fresh Lime and Vibrant Turquoise. Inside reads "Hope you're feeling ship shape soon!", 'cause there's nothing quite like a sea-sick fish LOL!
Hope you are having a FABULOUS week :)
