Friends under the Sea - FOSTV160

Our challenge this week at Friends of Speedy TV has a theme "under the Sea" - any cards or other projects fitting this theme would be most welcome and the challege can be found here. 

I was initially stumped by this challenge but here is the card I came up with.  First a view of the front

and now a view of the inside

 

I used the MFP stamp sets Be Virtuous, Nature's Brushstrokes, New Year Mini and Wealthy Fish to complete my card.  Check out the team's creations and get your thinking caps on - you have until Easter Sunday to get your cards done.

Please come back tomorrow for our March blog hop.

I participated in last week's hop but you will also find my cards at the end of today's hop.  Please visit all the blogs in the list below.

Using Asian Delights as well - this card uses cranberry embossing powder and shades of pink ink

Using Be Virtuous as well.  The fan was masked so I could stamp the leaves and sponge through the stencil to make the background.  The sentiment is cut with a Spellbinders die.
