NELLY I simply love colouring up little fishes, it’s something about how their personality bursts into life! So for this weeks project I have taken the fish digital stamp from Winnie starfish and sandcastles digi download and coloured with zig watercolours. A little stencilling in the background and textures using texture paste created the ocean feel. I also used The Scribble Heart dies and the Heavenly Circles stencil. I thought this card would work perfect for an anniversary card? What do you think?

Maria - Hello again! I’ve been wanting to try these wonderful Pretty Shutter Window dies for such a long time, and now I’ve finally got around to it! I’ve created this lovely card using them. Combined with the magical Adalene Craft Papers designer paper, it gives a beautifully romantic, dreamy view into the evening sky. I added a brickwork texture to the paper using a stencil and purple ink. The sentiment from the Everyday Sentiment Strips pack is the perfect finishing touch for this handmade thank‑you card.

Eve - Hello crafty friends, for today's card I used my Scan and cut to cut out the adorable Bella Bear with lots of parcels pre coloured image. I mat and layered it onto some brown and white card to make it pop. Then I fussy cut and layered lots of elements with foam pads to add dimension. I added Glossy Accents and glitter pen to make it sparkle. The background paper is Christmas paper patterns 2 which I die cut with some stitched square dies. The sentiment is from Bella Bear Christmas greetings set.  Thanks for visiting and good luck if you enter Digi Choosday!


Robbie - Hello everyone! Who wouldn't love to see a mermaid? Well if you can't see one in real life you can create with them. I used various alcohol markers to color this underwater scene digistamp and Coral mermaid. Some blue ink was blended on the underwater scene panel to look like it is underwater. The Coral Mermaid paper made a great mat behind the scene. I shrunk the sentiment, printed, and then I cut it out. It was mounted on the same mat paper. The mermaid was fussy cut and then mounted on a spinner so she spins like she is swimming through the water. Who wouldn't smile when they open this card and the mermaid spins around!

Julie - Hello! Today's project is simple and easy to create. I started by printing an Ocean/Sea themed sentiment from Winnie Starfish Sandcastle about 1/3 of the way down on a card front. There are many sentiments to choose from so pick one that suits the mood of your card. I then cut a piece of printable paper from Winnie Starfish Sandcastle, and cut it at 4 1/8 x 3 1/2. I cut the 4 1/4 side across into a wavy design and attached it to the bottom of the card front. I chose a couple of vibrant colored fish from the Winnie Starfish Sandcastle Embellies and printed them in different sizes. I added some glitter to the fish before adding them with some foam squares into the water. I drew in a few bubbles and added some pieces of coral cut from a random die. I finished the card off with a few sparkly blue gems to coordinate with the water. I added a small strip of the water paper cut in the same wavy design to the card inside with an additional sentiment. The card was quick, beautiful and sends out a fun, relaxing vibe! Give it a try!
