Pretty Fish Card

It's been such a long time since I joined in a card challenge, I originally started a blog just so I could join in with different card challenges.  Since I started my own card making class I've had less time but promised myself I would try to start again this year.  It may of taken me until February to get my act together but here goes!

 I found this challenge called The Joy of Sets, it's a TicTacToe or Noughts & Crosses for us UK crafters.

I have gone straight down the left hand side Glimmer, Emboss and White.
I have used gold embossing powder, a white card base and gold sequins for my glimmer!























I also did the same style in Silver with less fish.





























My first idea was this card, I had a bracelet idea in my head, I think it ended up a bit too fussy, so I made it more clean and simple.




I made a video to show how I made these cards
