Fishin' Around

I missed a day, but I was Fishin'........I have struggled making this card and kept moving the post, I forgot to emboss the Marina Mist panel!  But I have to move on, so the fishin' must take a break!  Now that I have had a dry run, I will post a different version in a few days.  But in the mean time here is a first attempt.  This Single Wood stamp is perfect for the round treat cups.  I chose to use a plastic bag and hair gel for a watery bowl.  The card base is Crumb Cake stamped with some Early Expresso Gorgeous Grunge.  I am loving this grunge, gives such a nice subtle background.

I embossed some Early Expresso Core'dinations card stock with the Wood Grain embossing folder and adhered to the bottom of the card.  The Fish Bowl was stamped in Marina Mist ink on Whisper White card stock big enough to accommodate your bag of gel.  I colored with Markers and then layered the bag of gel using tape runner.  I then added a stampin dimensional to each corner.  I cut the Marina Mist card stock large enough to cover the gel.  I stamped the Image again in Marina Mist and then punched out the center with the 1 3/4 circle punch.  The sentiment was stamped in Early Expresso and then I should of embossed!!  But I forgot and next thing you know it was STUCK!  Oh well, next card I promise!  I then used Tombow multi to adhere the panel to the card front.
