Beauty under the sea

There is much beauty under the sea, as depicted on this piece of coral reef paper that has been lurking in my scraps box - a pretty big scrap actually because I had to use an A5 card to accommodate it.

This is for a couple of 'under the sea' challenges - The treehouse 63 and Cuttlebug be inspired 98 - I used a cuttlebug border embossing folder to make the zigzag pattern on the strip of waves that had been cut from a DCWV paper, which itself was embossed and glitter foiled.

This is a simple card, but it would have been a shame to have covered too much of the beautiful paper.

It's also for:

Everybody art 105: 'sea'
Sentimental Sundays 17: 'words to inspire'
Lexi 21: 'emboss it'
ABC: 'B is for blue'


The challenge on this week's Tuesday taggers is 'inspired by a poem' - the poem linked to this card is 'Annabel Lee' by Edgar Allan Poe.
