Texture Chic with a Fish

I pulled out this paper today and thought, “I want to make something with this.” I had no idea what was going to develop, but this is where I landed. Do you ever craft that way? It’s Texture Chic with a fish!

I stamped the coral with Versamark Ink and heat embossed it with gold embossing powder. Then I stamped this cute little fish with Calypso Coral ink and fussy-cut him out. He is sitting up on Dimensionals, as is the sentiment strip.

The Seasonal Sequins is my Host Gift this month. If you spend $75 from my online store using the Host Code XHKJ2FFY, you will receive a pack in the mail from me! I love them with this ~ they look like bubbles from the fish!

I hope you have a great week! Mine is jammed-packed with meetings. I’m happy to have a little free time today to spend in my craft/laundry room! See you Thursday with a CCMC card challenge ~
