Here is my DT card for Try a Sketch On Tuesday #652. While looking through my stash chose a patterned paper with words on it and decided that was my background, even though the sketch didn't call for a sentiment this was perfect for an any occasion note card. Flipped the sketch to landscape because I wanted a full sentiment across the top of the card, bordered with a checkered design paper and adhered to the card base.
Retirement has created a challenge addict, which takes up a fair amount of my time. Thanks to innovative and creative ideas from many Design Teams, my CTMH daughter, and my friends. Challenges give me a jump-start on many of my cards and turns on my creativity to come up with my own unique designs.

Happiness Comes in Waves - TSOT 652
Zip strips from the paperpack were perfect for the three panels in the center... two outside strips were waves and the center seashells were adhered to background paper.
The focal point was white cardstock, bordered with the checkered pattern paper. The fish image was stamped, masked, stamped sea foliage in the background and colored with a variety of Copic Sketch pens. A second fish image was stamped, fussy-cut, colored, ahered with 3D thin foam tape on the original stamped focal point and then adhered with 3D thin foam tape on top of the zip strips.
On the inside a wave zip strip was added to the bottom border on the card base. Please hop over to Try A Sketch on Tuesday to see their Design Team members inspiration and let us see what you create... hope to see you there.

I love that the background paper looks look waves for your wonderfully colored fish. That paper was a great way to add a sentiment!
