Have you ever had one of those ideas that just doesn't translate to card??? I'm quite happy with the final result for this week's MDUC challenge but it is soooo not what I had planned!! I hate to think how many unsalvagable bits of CS I popped in the recycling bin - and how many time the design concept changed, but I got a card done in the end!!! My idea was not so much "Under the Sea" but what is under the sea - so I've done an aquarium, and Tilda seems to be enjoying watching the fishy antics!!!I've used all sorts of different stamp sets to achieve the final result so I'll list them below. I also had several different Tilda's coloured up to try out - so I have a little stash of them to use for future cards now.
I can't wait to see what the rest of the DT come up with for the challenge - and what everyone else does with it too...so why don't you put on your thinking caps and come over to MDUC to play along.

You've done well Deb. I know you struggled with the fish while colouring at the rink....

OKAAAAY!! This totally makes ME giggle. It is so refreshing to see this Debbie--LOVE IT sooo much. She's adorable and to even think to put those cute little fishies in the "aquarium" behind her is just absolutely PERFECT!! I'm so proud of you!!! This is such a happy card. OH, and very awesome coloring on those fish too! ;)
I know you're not from USA, so not sure if/when you celebrate Memorial Day, but we get Monday off, so Hope you have a wonderful weekend!! So, is it getting to be winter there??
I love this card, it is so fun and cheeky and it made me laugh when I saw it. Fan-tastic creativity! Thanks for the inspiration.
I think we can all relate to the struggles you had creating your card...sometimes it just doesn't come easy, but this card was worth the struggle...it's absolutely darling! I love the cute fish and how you created the aquarium! It's a happy card and brought a big smile to my face:)))) Thanks!
Fabulous card Debbie,the colour combo and colouring of Tilda is brilliant!!! Such a creative card,your ideas are always amazing!
