Today's challenge is, as always, Anything Goes!

I LOVE a slimline card! Today I've built a frosty underwater scene using lots of images and elements from the Too Cute Christmas Fishes Big Kahuna bundle. I've got lots of mixed and matched cuties here, along with that "punny" Santa Claws sentiment. I created the scene digitally by merging the different images.

The entire scene is hand-colored using Copic markers. I've added some Nuvo drops on the fish and as bubbles in the water. The sun rays were hand drawn using a stencil guide (Scene It), and then colored with markers. I added some extra bubbles using FSJ white pigment ink and my Making Waves stencil. Slimline dies from Gina Marie Designs (Plain and Scalloped). The sentiment flag die is from this Mini Frame set, and I colored it the same sandy tones, but popped it up on foam tape for some dimension.
