Birthday Fishes
by Nancy Penir
Hi there! I have a fun card for you today, using some of Poppystamps’ new whittles dies.
I began with the Whittle Wave Background, cutting them in different shades of blue. I cut one extra, to glue the 4 pieces onto. It’s easy to snip the edges to separate the wave sections, and they’re already cut through along the wave.
Here’s what the card looks like with the pieces put together.
I assembled my die cuts on a plain white card, and liked it, but I love layers and textures, so decided to add a stenciled background, also in shades of blue. Memory Box’s Fractal Diamond reminded me of rays of sunshine, so I blended my inks, lightly in the middle, heavier on the corners.
My grandson turns 10 this month, and thinks he’s a fish, swimming with his brother daily! I hope he loves this card as much as I loved making it.
Something else new in the Poppystamps store are the Fairy drops. Perfect for adding air bubbles!
Have a wonderful crafty week!
