Hi everyone! Today i want to show you a simple way to add some "water" to your card ;-)
I have colored the cute seahorse from the clearstamp set Beach Day Buddies. I have used Copics: E0000, BG10, BG15, YR00, YR02. Then I take a siplock bag and fill it with hair gel and some glitter.
Then I do the background with a textstamp from the same clearstamp set and use the blending tool to the edges with some distress inks pads. I also stamp bubbles around the edges. I cut out a hole in my cardbase with a die and I also made a frame with the same die. Here you can se the plastic bag with gel in, if you want a darker "water" you can put some refill ink as well.
And here is the finished card. I have pushed the gel to one side so you can see the image clear. This is a really fun card to do and to get, and children love these cards!
A close up on the embellishment, I have used seashell from the beach and some stained cheesecloth to get a beach feeling. In the little glass bootle is actually some sand... :-)
I hope you get inspired to do this card and what a great way to send your flotsam to your friends from the summer vacation. Thank you for stopping by today and I wish you a great holiday!

UNDERBART!! Ingen kan som du ♥
Åh, vad fint!! Du är så bra! :) Kram!
This is such a cleaver idea! I saw it before recently but the other person put a drop of blue dye in the gel. But glitter is great! Gives the card a magical touch! Thanks for sharing.

Läckert kort! Det är alltid kul att kika in hos dig och se allt fint du skapar. Även vackra bilder att vila ögonen på och få inspiration av, tack för allt fint du visar.

Du är grym!!!
Superfint Rimna! En kul idé att spara till något barnkort!! TACK för inspirationen. Kram Mill@n
It's absolutely gorgeous!! Love the embellishments and that gell is just such a clever idea? Is it a double card or have you glued the card together so it's now a single card? Hope that makes sense? Have to give this a try.
Hugs,
