Under the sea...

Hello!  Here's another creation made after Autumn sent me the treasure chest (see this post):

Supplies and notes:

• I ran a library card through the Cuttlebug in a Darice folder-- both from Autumn.  This was done on my first session with these goodies... 
• The following stains were used: 

  

  Iced Spruce, Brushed Pewter, and Vintage Photo

• The acetate oceanlife pictures were from an old K & Company set. They have a terrific copper sheen to them. 
• I added drops of Mod Podge Dimension Magic to look like little bubbles
• Oh, I also edged the card with Gathered Twigs and another green inkpad... the name escapes me at the moment.
• I've had terrible luck with cheesecloth... I've tried it alone, with paints, with glues... with blah results.  The netting here is a wonderful alternative!  It was a sort of ribbon on a present, and it had silver strands woven into it.  I cut a piece, pulled out the silver strands, and glued it to the back of the card with Mod Podge.  As I was trying to speed the drying of the glue with a heat gun, I discovered that it was melting the plastic in an awesome way.   I had to stop myself before I reduced it all to a little toxic plastic glob... but it's so fun to watch it curl and melt!

I plan to enter this into the following challenges:

• Tuesday Throwdown #276: Add Dimension: We have here some embossed dimension, some netting dimension, and some bubble dimension!
• Shopping Our Stash # 234: Something New: I read their challenge rules, but I didn't see anything against adding two projects to the linky.  My NEWness comes from the new (to me) craft-machine and embossing folder... plus, now I have new skills! :)
