Seascape Bundle meets Picture This Dies!

 WOW!!!!

This is not a Susie card at all- but it is very pretty!

And I like the way it turned out.

 

There is a lot going on here.

I just got the 'Seascape Bundle' yesterday & made this card 

last night when I got the kids to bed. 

I just kept adding to it & I do like the end results.

This is not a card that you'd want to make too many of, 

as it was rather time consuming.

I have been wanting to use the 5 circles in the Picture This Dies.

So that is what I started out with when I was creating!

I used a piece of 3 3/4 x 5" Expressions In Ink DSP

& cut it out with the Picture This Dies (circles).

I then cut some more circles out with this die- using Pool Party & Just Jade card stock.

Inside these various circles I stamped bubbles, words & sea grass

& then adhered these all to a 3 7/8 x 5 1/8" Just Jade card stock piece.

I cut the big fish out of some Expressions In Ink DSP &

I also cut it out of some Gold Foil too.

I punched out the fin pieces from the DSP,

but I added a piece of Adhesive Sheet to the back side of the Gold Foil, 

so that the fin pieces would stay all together.

I then adhered the DSP fish directly over the top of the Gold Foil fish, 

carefully using Tombo Glue & a sponge.

NOTE:  I did NOT remove the back side of the Adhesive Sheet.  

I left it on & put dimensionals on it, so that the fish was popped up.

 

And I guess I couldn't stop....I then die cut a coral of the Gold Foil too.

I cut this in sections & adhered it over 2 of the circles.

This is a fun z fold card....so the front of the card folds backward.

 

So what do you think of it?
