Another month gone so once again we’re round to reveal day for the Card Chain Challenge. Mine went to Brenda this time.
Background is smooshed Distress inks with the weed and bubbles stamped with Distress Oxide over the top. I used a pen cap to stamp some slightly larger “bubbles” as well. Some are filled in with white pen and have Stickles for sparkle. Extra sparkle comes from some silver thread looped behind the fish which is left uncoloured to contrast with the background and has some scrap card behind it to raise it just slightly.

Always a good idea to let your crafty spirit move you, Joanne - this turned out amazing!! Love the background and sweet fish with the silver threads behind!!
What a great background! Lovely card.
I really love that background and think your card is lovely!
As usual, you are too hard on yourself.
This is a very pretty card with your signature curved corner :)
I like the idea of contrasting a B&W fish with the bright BG.

Well, your lost mojo certainly created a beautiful bubbling underwater background for your lovely angelfish to be swimming around in! Julia xx
