Under the Sea

Hi, it's donut Thursday. Today is the day I go over and get the kids off to school and I always take a dozen donuts.
Today's card is a stair-step card that I made for the Magnolia Down Under Challenge. The theme of the challenge is Under the Sea. I color the first two levels like water and the
third level, half water and half sand, which is just white wash embossing powder. The fish, crab, and the birds were colored and cut out and glued to the levels. The plants are made from a punch. Real seashells were added. The Tilda's were colored and cut out. The sitting down Tilda with her feet in the water I placed on the sand and the wading Tilda I put in the second level so it looks like she is out in the water. This was a fun card to create. What do you think? Leave me a comment if you can. Thanks for stopping by. Hope your Thursday is marvelous. Until later.......

Wowzers, would you look at this beauty of a card. How fun is that? Lovin' the fish and the colouring is superb. It really does look like one's on the beach and the other is out in the water. Very nice Sue. Happy Donut Thursday to you.
