Fishy Kisses & Birthday Wishes

Howdy!

Today's card is being entered into the following challenges:
Addicted to CAS Challenge #180 - Circle
Cardz 4 Guys Challenge# 240 Something Beginning with 'F'
Shopping Our Stash #416 - Happy Birthday!!!
Stamplorations March Stencil Challenge





This is my 18th day of participating in The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge. Have you been playing along? I have and it's been great motivation.

For today's card, I began with my homemade stencil. Then I placed the fish in the area where I would be using the stencil. And next I pressed down on my stamp platform and then stamped. I then took off the sentiment stamp and left the fish, placing Post-Its over the cardstock. That way I was able to stamp again and after fussy cutting I was able to make a mask for the fish. Then I brought out my stencil, Amazon makeup brush and ink. And then I colored in the areas of the stencil.

As for the coloring, that is a mixture of various markers and colored pencil. The colored pencil was blended with baby oil.

Stamps: SOL Fish2Stamp, CTMH O-fish-ally Awesome
Paper: CTMH White Daisy
Ink: CTMH Intense Black, Lagoon
Accessories: handmade stencil (Queen & Co Bubbles), Amazon makeup brush, Copic BV04 Blue Berry, Shin Han YR24 Marigold, WG7 Warm Grey, Spectrum Noir Triblend Citrus, Bright Pink, Orange, True Blue, Prismacolor Premier 10% French Grey
