Dies R Us ~ Seahorse

Hello friends!  There's a new challenge starting up over at Dies R Us and the theme is "Anything Goes".

Today's card brings me back for a visit to the depths of the sea, using Elizabeth Craft Designs dies.  I started by creating a mini slimline card using Pink Fresh Studio Blanket Stitched Mini Slimline dies. I stenciled the water onto the mini slimline panel using Tumbled Glass and Chipped Saphire Distress Oxide Inks

I cut the Elizabeth Craft Designs Seahorse out of card stock and glitter paper to give this little guy more interest... as if seahorses aren't interesting enough on their own.  Right?  It's hard to see in the photo, but I popped his back fin up using a couple of small foam squares.

I tucked Mr. Seahorse into a bed of Elizabeth Craft Designs Seaweed, all of which got a healthy dose of Wink of Stella


Here is a list of products I used to make today's card:
