Blue Betta Designs by Ryn

Hello!
I just love this pretty fish stamp from Designs by Ryn, and I know that in 'real life' they exist in several colours, red and blue are the ones I've seen most of.  Having made a card with a red Betta, I decided to make a blue version!  This is a small card, only 10 x 14 cm.
I used Peacock Feathers Distress ink in the background, stamped the fish in Stazon ink then coloured it with Inktense pencils.  I've used the lovely Fish Scales stamp in the background again too, fab texture effect with this stamp!  A little stickles to add some sparkle and some liquid pearls dotted around to look like bubbles.  The sentiment is from the Mackintosh Sentiments set from Chocolate Baroque.  I hope you like it and thank you very much for visiting! xxxxx

That's gorgeous Wendy, I can't believe that's my favourite colour, but I don't have that ink pad! xxx

Hi Wendy, beautiful card in the pretty blues. The background is fantastic for Betta Fish. I love that stamp design as well. Have a great day, Shirleyxx

Hey Wendy, love how you've been using Fish Scales. Fading it in and out creates a really neat looking background texture. Thanks for sharing! I'll post to Facebook now :)
