Now isn't that a fun idea?!?
Monika is also hosting a challenge for us to CASE a card she has previously made. There are several to choose from, which is tough because her cards are all so lovely and her 'style' in cardmaking is so varied.
Take a moment to visit Monika and wish her a Happy Day ~ you have until April 30th, so no excuses ;-)
this is the card that I am CASEing |
And here is the card I made:

I tried to duplicate Monika's style and techniques closely by making a circle stencil, creating the water background with Prismacolor pencils then blending with a wet paint brush. The fishes are colored in the same way, fussy cut out and popped onto the card base with double sided tape for a bit of dimension.
I hope you have a wonderful birthday month and the good times continue through the year, Monika!
That's a cutie! The fish look so adorable!! Holding a balloon too! Lovely!
