Just Keep Swimmin' - Sketchbook Saturday

Just Keep Swimmin'  - Sketchbook Saturday

I was actually looking for something on Chupa's blog 
when I stumbled across the cutest ladybug card she posted.
And it so happened it is the most current 
Sketchbook Saturday Sketch!
I thought how cute the card is with Penny Black itty bitty ladybug,
it is actually a large image stamp.
(Check it out HERE)
I don't have any of those.  
I guess I am finding out the kinds
of stamps I shy away from.  Interesting.
Well.. I did a card last year where two fish were talking
to each other, and a speech bubble would be perfect.
I could CASE that card.
So I did. 

This is a FUN one, PLAY ALONG!

Here is my take on the Sketchbook Saturday:






Supplies:
Viva Las Vegas Fish Stamps
AMuse Sentiment
Embossing Folder Lifestyle Crafts for Cuttlebug Tides
Accents Cloud9 Rain Dots Stickers
Tsukineko Memento Tuxedo Black
Signo White Gel Pen

I hand cut my large speech bubble.
I know that Paper smooches.... I think has a die that does this.
...Though I will tell you that when I finished my card and went back to take a closer look, 
I smiled to see that Chupa hand cut hers too!


This is me, stamping the images on colored cardstock
and the using a Signo Uniball White Gel pen to color in areas.
I then went over 
"Dori" with yellow and red copics



And here is the card I CASE'd, 
I like my recent one much better!

This is absolutely adorable! I love the way that you used the embossing folder to represent the water.

I want to thank you so much for nominating me for the award. Truly humbled! I'm sorry that I haven't gotten back to you earlier. I came down with the worse flu that I've ever had. I developed laryngitis too and it's killing me not to be able to talk. I've gotten behind visiting my bloggy friends, but hope to catch up soon!
