Beach Baby

Swimming is such an important part of our family, so I like to make aquatic themed cards from time to time:

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

The background paper for this card is from MME.  The sentiment is from Desert Diva and the image from Bugaboo Stamps.  The ribbon is from American Crafts and the splat is a Sizzix die that I had mis-placed and found again recently.   The colouring of the image is a combination of copic markers - E00, B000, E43, E41 and also Stickles - Turquoise.  I actually got the Stickles out to do the glasses and then got a bit carried away and did the swimsuit and bow as well!
