Dolphin splash.




Hi everyone, I've spent the afternoon playing with distress inks and some dies that I had to have but hadn't got around to using yet!!

I started with a pale blue piece of card and added some tumbled glass and stormy skies DI to both layers and then added chipped sapphire to the bottom layer. Next I spritzed on some water, I love the patchy look it left. I diecut an extra set of ripples and glued them on for more dimension in the water.

The dolphins are diecut from some silver shimmer paper an popped up on foam dots.

I'm linking up to a few challenges.

At Simon Says Stamp Wednesday the theme is anything goes.

At Happy Little Stampers Watercolour challenge, it's also anything goes with an optional twist of masking.

 

The Male Room wants us to use diecuts from our stash.
I've used Memory Box splashing puddles and diving dolphins.


At Outside the Box the theme is celebrating birthdays.
