Our sponsor this month is Make it Crafty, and I used one of their great underwater scenes for my card. Check out their store at

This card base is a cut file from the Silhouette Online Store. It makes an envelope with a tab card that fits inside. I thought it would look really cute as an outer wrap for my ocean-themed card, so I used some octopus patterned paper for the envelope. I added a Heartfelt Creations anchor die tied with twine and some flairs from Freckled Fawn to dress up the envelope and stamped "Happy Birthday Fishes" with a CTMH stamp.
For the inside card, I sized up my digi from Make it Crafty using my Silhouette Design Studio software and printed it out. I die cut the scene with a die from WPlus9's Sunshine Layers die set and then colored the scene with Copic and MEXPY markers. I added some dew drops for the bubbles and used glue tape to adhere the scene to the tab card background.
