All Dressed Up August New Release - Surf's Up!

Its that time of the month we over at the All Dressed Up Challenge Blog we show you all the latest new release images and once again Wendy has created some fabulous digis.
You can see them all on the blog and see the full catalogue at the All Dressed Up Etsy shop.
I've played with an image called Surfs Up

I created the band by cutting a section from a separate card and covered it with paper from Bella Blvd Campout collection. I used a My Favourite Things stitched wonky edge die cut to create a wave type edge. I used a different patttern to create the fish stripe below the wave. I also covered the top half of the card with My Favourite Things watercolour wash.
I coloured the image with promarkers and cut around them. I printed the second one out in reverse and removed the letters in Paint programme as they were back to front.
I attached the Sharks using 3d foam with the larger one hanging over the fold.
I used Kaisercraft clear sticker for Happy Birthday and I added the letters to spell out Dude which are from Echo Park I love Summer collection.

I used these promarkers and flexmarkers to colour the image -
Crab - Canary, Gold, Bright Orange & Orange.
Powder blue & Warm Grey 1 for shading
Surf Board - Lemon & Canary & Lime Zest, Lime Twist & Lime Green.
Sharks - Cool Aqua, Oasis & Frosted Jade.
