This card was specifically designed for the Delicious Doodles challenge - Make it Fishy. OK, I know a dolphin is not a fish but it does swim in the sea so is close enough I think. I was itching to make this card all day after seeing the challenge last night and just having to go buy the digi I used which I have had my eye on for some time, it is just so goooorrrggeous don't you agree.
As usual, I really wanted to show the digi off and had thought of using some wonderful water velum I have stashed away but then thought, material. I have not made a card using material instead of DP for ages and knew I had what I thought would be perfect in my drawer. The material was a scrap given to me by a friend (also in four more colours) which she bought of an event here in Abqaiq, Saudi Arabia, to decorate the tables. I tried to pucker it up to make it look like the motion of the sea but by the time I had added the text border, digi and embellishment it kind of got hidden, never mind, I know it is there and you can feel it in the real world.
