Card Captain, Day 5, July 18, 2014

Happy Friday! Here is a water themed card for you, using Michael Strong's Cloisonne Seahorses, large and small, which are stamped in blue distress ink, clear embossed then fussy cut. The background layer was made with distress ink pads wiped on a craft sheet and spritzed with water. The paper was placed down on this and moved a bit. When dry, a paper distress-er was used on the edges. Stamped Mike's Seaweed on the background with green ink. Dimensional foam was used to attach the seahorses. Small dabs of crystal effects were added for bubbles.

It's been a fun sharing my cards this week as Card Captain for the Enjoy Michael Strong Stamps Yahoo Group! Thanks to everyone who came to visit and also for leaving comments! I really appreciate it! Have a great week end!

What a beautiful background for the sea horses, Laura. Wonderful colors. It is just like looking into an aquarium!
