Today Mama Elephant is highlighting the new Marine Friends stamps and dies. For this I have created a clean and simple card, focusing on the wonderful dolphins in the set.
I started by stamping the two dolphins with the Ink on 3 Fadeout ink, which makes the light outlines needed for noline coloring, which I did using my copics, and added highlights with a white gel pen.
For the rest of my card I used the gorgeous Scales Cover die, which I cut out of white cardstock. Then I cut out a circle from the top middle using the largest circle from the Sew Fancy set, which has the same dotted detail style as the scales. Then I trimmed off the edges of the cover piece, so the edge of my cardbase would be visible.

For my cardbase I used a light blue cardstock. I used a pencil to roughly draw in where my window would be placed, making it easier for me to stamp the coral from the Marine Friends set in the bottom of the window, as well as the tiny fish from the Little Mermaiden Agenda set. I used a matching ink for a very subtle effect.
The sentiment is from the Marine Friends stamp set too and I heat embossed it in silver in the middle of the window.
Then all I had to do was pop up the scales cover piece and add my dolphins around the window.
