Here's my cards featuring " Flourished Sea Creatures" by Mark's Finest Papers.
This first card I used vellum , using a large scallop nestabilities to make the waves. I stamped the foliage in green on some Basic Grey. I added a flourish stamp from "Flourishes and Frames" by MFP to the background. Card stock is MFP and the image is colored with copic's.
I sponged the background in , colored my images with copic's. The card stock is MFP. and I used a white gel pen for highlighting the bubbles and I used a corner rounder.
Don't forget to visit these designers' blogs for your change to win!

Outstanding and gorgeous cards!!! Your underwater scenes are fantastic!!
I love the seahorse! Thanks for proving that sometimes what seems to be a mistake isn't always a design killer - and can sometimes make things better.
WOWZER! I Love the vellum ocean. It looks so real on your card. What a great place for your little sea turtle to swim.
That vellum is such a good idea for a sea card! And your seahorse looks fabulous, altered and all! :)
Love the scenes you created, and the way you used the vellum!
Great cards! Really like the color schemes and the way you have the turtle with a two- toned ocean around her. The bottom border of pearls is super. Like the bright crab sitting on the ocean bottom with the bubbles.
Wonderful cards Geri, I really love that cute seahorse and crab one. What a great way to say "Sorry".
