Just Keep Swimming

Being a swim teacher and swim coach, I tend to be drawn to images that depict swimming.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Kaboodle Doodles - National Flag colours (NZ)

To work the white from most of the challenges above into the card, I decided to go with a CAS style (don't I most of the time anyway!!).  The image is one from The Alley Way Stamps which I coloured with copic markers R05 and B02 and then added Glossy Accents to the bubbles.  I have matted the image with both blue and red papers (almost perfectly matching the copic colours and I picked out the copic colours first!).  The button is one from my Mum's button box and I also added three white pearls - keeping with the bubbles!
