Colourful Seahorse Card


Hi, everyone! I wanted to make a card today, but my muse was sound asleep and I didn't know what to make ... So, I checked out the Paper Playful list of challenges to see if any there would inspire me.

I found two challenges that I liked. The first was a sketch from Mojo Monday - so that one gave me my layout, and then I found theme: Critters & Creatures Link Party.  I chose this adorble sea creature for my card:

 

I stamped the seahorse with black ink and coloured it in with Inketense and a waterbrush. 
Gemstones on the left side, green and blue glitter glue on the scalloped circle.

The seahorse stamp is from Stamp Oasis and I've had it for many years, but it's been a long time since I used it. I used to collect seahorse stamps, and this one is one of my faves. The text is a stamp from Rubber Dance. It's a one line stamp, but I cut it apart so I could center it inside the circle.


Here is the sketch I used from Mojo Monday:






 I'm entering my card to these two challenges:
Mojo Monday #465
Critters & Creatures Link Party #7


Thanks for looking!



 PS: If you want to join a challenge, how about joining my challenge's 2nd anniversary

I guess it's not common that people go back to see if they were thanked for their comments, so I will say it now: THANK YOU so much for taking the time to leave a comment! ♥
