Ingredients:
Fish Swimming:
I cut the Stampin’ UP! DSP into waves with a circle punch, then outlined them with Versamark pen and embossed in white. Each layer is on dimensionals. Background is chalked to look like sunset. Fish were watercolored with paints then cut out and added between the waves.

“Hi” Apple Cards
I made these “hi” cards for Andrea’s teachers this year, as a way to introduce ourselves as well as give them our contact information.
I used scraps for all the pieces (a white 4.25 x 5.5″ white card is hidden behind the “chalkboard”). The “hi” was stamped with Versamark and heat embossed in white. Finished “chalkboard” measures 4.5 x 6.5″.
Supplies used:
Brown, White, and Black Cardstock
Scraps
Versamark ink
Doddlebug letter stamps
White embossing powder
Corner-rounding punch
Feel free to use this template for personal or instructional use only. Enjoy! ๐
