Watery World

Happy weekend everybody!
Over the last few days we have experienced an awful lot of heavy rain showers   ☔ so I made a watery themed card!
The background was cut from a larger background piece made a while ago whilst playing about experimenting with Brushos. 

The foliage inked in  Forest Moss Distress Ink was shadow stamped a couple of times and I found a tiny stamp in the 'no idea where these came from' box 😄  which looked like a stream of bubbles so used it after inking in Salty Ocean. It gave a really subtle effect I think. (Although you may have to enlarge the pic to get a better view!)

Some gold embossing powder on the bottom which I hope resembles some sparkly sand!

The Seahorse die is from a free set  that came with a mag last year, coloured in gold ink and clear embossed. 

I have rather a lot of this textured card from American Crafts bought some time ago and like the finish it gives so note to self - use more!

As once again we have heavy showers 🌂 here I am planning on sitting in the craftie space and having an inky day today. 
(I should really be doing housework but hey ho!) - have a great weekend! x

    A great look and I love the textured card too. I used to use it a lot but I'm not sure if I have much left. I can't go shopping 'til I've used a pile of stash though!

    LOVE your underwater sea card Viv! Gorgeous colours of Brushos and fabulous images with the deep green plants and the bubbles ... perfect! The gold embossing does look like sand at the bottom ... lots of texture. And your sea horse is GORGEOUS! Enjoy the day craft room while the rain pours down. Perfect place to be!

    LOVE your new look Viv. I was shocked and thought I was at the wrong place at first. :) xx

    This is amazing Viv - so many little details. I love the bubbles and the touch of gold on the seaweed. Don't you just love it when you find useful stamps you never even knew you had?!
