I have a card to share with you today and I will link it up to several challenges at the end of this post.
This beautiful image of a Beta Fish is being inked for the first time, I don't know why I waited so long to play with it.
I stamped my image onto a die cut panel of Strathmore mixed media paper with Versafine black ink and clear heat emboss it, then colored it with SU markers, an aqua painter an did some highlights with Prismacolor pencils. The pattern paper is from Lili of the Valley (retired), the sentiment form THIS Hero Arts clear stamp set.

Here is a picture of the finished inside of my card.
The bubbles are from another Designs by Ryn stamp called Rising Bubbles and the sentiment from an old Flourishes set called "Magnolias".
I'm entering this card onto the following challenges.
Designs by Ryn April Customer Creation Challenge.
LiveLoveCards April Challenge "Sea Life", this fish doesn't live in the sea so I'm taking a leap of faith here with this card.
Crafting When We Can "Animals"
The Crazy Challenge #245 "Bingo" I picked the bottom choices, hope the shades of pink are ok.

Hey Maria, so glad to hear that you are getting your art out there and that you've received so much support from fellow crafters :) Thanks for showing me what you made with your prize. Love the colouring on the fish! It almost looks iridescent! Bye for now!
Nice to be rewarded for all the challenges you've entered during your blog! This fish is beautiful you really accomplished the irredescent colors on his body!
Oh my goodness, your fish is divine (I don't think I would normally say that about a fish... but truly divine)! I can see this fish in sooo many colours and your choice of blues and purples was perfect.
I'm always a fan of fish! Beautiful coloring as always!
Gorgeous coloring, Maria! I love that beta image. I'm just tickled to pieces that you are supporting our new 'critter' challenge at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies and I hope you'll become a regular. Thank you. :-D
