It’s time for another CYCI sketch challenge! As soon as I saw this sketch, the little circles reminded me of bubbles, and I knew I had to do fish. I pulled out my trusty By the Tide stamp set which has a great fish image.
I stamped two fish in Cucumber Crush and one in Pacific Point onto the Pool Party card front. I made sure the ink was good and dry to help prevent bleeding, then colored in the fish with Stampin’ Write Markers in Daffodil Delight, Blushing Bride, Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder, and Pumpkin Pie.
The bubbles are Rhinestone Basic Jewels. I used all three sizes that come in the pack to create graduated sizes of bubbles. I used my Paper Piercing Tool to apply the rhinestones. It’s easy to use the sharp point to get up under the jewel and transfer it exactly where you want it.
The sentiment from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set is stamped in Pacific Point ink. This has to be one of the best stamp sets to have in your arsenal. It has 24 different sentiments for a wide array of occasions.
The card front is glued onto a piece of Pacific point card stock, and that’s glued onto the Cucumber Crush card base.

Here’s what I used:







Love your amazing card! So very beautifully colored and the jewels are a perfect substitute for bubbles!
