Welcome to the Neighborhood!

How cute is this new neighbor card? I just love these fish from Taylored expressions!!! I wanted something a little different than the usual 'house' welcome card and this is what I came up with. 

I stamped the snow globe on a piece of white card stock then cut out the center for the shaker part. I masked off the top then stenciled the sand with the "Go with the Flow" stencil, Antique Linen and Vintage Photo Oxides. Then I used a toothbrush with Vintage Photo and Ground Espresso oxide ink that I spritzed with water to splatter the ink to make it look like sand. Next I masked the sand and used Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean to stencil the water.  I stamped and die cut the fish and seaweed using the following sets from Taylored Expressions: "Under the Sea", "Oceans of Fun" and "Build a Scene Underwater" I colored them with Copics (listed below) and assembled the snow globe shaker. I finished it off with the sentiment from the "Simple Strips Background" set.


I hope you like it!
