Submarine Card!


Hi everyone, today on twitter (11.4.18 ) apparently is #submarineday, so i decided to make a fun card! 😁 
i had never made a submarine card before so i thought it would be fun to try
card base 5 3/4 x 4
mat layer 3 7/8 x 5 5/8 
I had a scalloped circle die 
1 slightly larger normal circle die
I had a memento dew drop bahama blue ink 💙
firstly i dragged the blue ink across the matt layer and then i cut out a circle using the normal shaped circle die 
I then got a spare piece of cardstock and die cut another scalloped circle  and placed a smaller circle die inside it to make a circle with a scalloped edge
I then cut a square piece of acetate just bigger than the circle, and adhered it to the back of the  inked mat layer, using double sided tape , 
i then used liquid glue onto the back of the scalloped die cut circle and adhered it to the front of the die cut mat layer, 
I then used memento dandelion dew drop ink 💛 and dragged it across a piece of white cardstock, and free hand, i drew a small submarine, and also two little fish 🐟🐟 which i then fussy cut around and then adhered it to the base cardstock. I then used foam double sided tape and placed this along the back of the blue inked cardstock, the side with the acetate on it.  Using the dew drop bahama blue ink i dragged it across the  front of the base cardstock in a semi circle motion, to make it look like waves, and then I stuck the submarine and fish onto the base cardstock,  then i peeled off the backing on the foam double sided tape, i adhered it to the front of the base cardstock, this makes the front mat layer stand off the page, and the acetate makes it look like you are looking through a window and can see under the sea. 🌊
I hope you like it, seeing as it is the first time i have ever drawn a submarine, i think it looks pretty good, and with the sentiment stamped on i think it is a cute card, i hope you like it too! 😤
Happy crafting! 😊
love nessie 💚 x
