MFT - Water Adventure

Hi there,

Thanks so much for taking the time to visit my blog.  This was my first time making a box card and I loved it. It was great fun and really easy with the dies. It was a nice way back into card making - I haven't picked up a marker in over 8 months!

I wanted to play along with MFT Outside the Box Challenge Underwater Adventure and decided to ink up a very old, retired stamp set that has never been used - Soak up the Fun.  I have far too many unused stamps in my stash!  My inspiration came from Rachel Alvarado, she makes amazing cards, especially box ones.  

To make the window I die-cut a rectangle out of the front of the box  and adhered some acetate with liquid glue.  To made the first wave, I partially diecut a piece of cardstock to get the waves and then cut the cardstock so this panel would be the length of the card. I coloured up all these fun critters with my copic markers.

Here it is:
