Oddball Fish For The Win

Oddball Fish For The Win

Happy Sunny Wednesday from Annapolis!

As you know, I am now a Design Team Member for Papercraft Business Papercraft Challenge. Today they have a new challenge for you, with the theme: Use A Circle.


If you don’t know, I have a slight obsession with Stamping Bella! Recently they had a new release with some great new Oddball Characters. When I saw these fish, I knew they would be perfect for this challenge.

Starting with this new premium paper from Honey Bee Stamps. (It is from the pack The Bee’s Knees.) I created my underwater scene.

I colored my fish with copic markers. Giving them an almost monochromatic color to blend with the background paper. I added some Nuvo shimmer glitter gloss on just the bodies.

Pulling the whole scene together I used the Memory Box Large Ringlets die and My Favorite Things Iridescent Bubbles to add to the watery feel. I wanted to use the swim in your own direction sentiment, so I mounted that one fish swimming away from the flow! Lastly with the theme being “Use A Circle” I decided to round the corners on all my layers.

Are you inspired to pop over to Papercraft Business Papercraft Challenge and join the fun? Did you know that if you do, you could win this Whimsy Stamps image that is pictured here?
