Sunshine in my pocket

A Jellyfish card with Bioluminescence

July 19, 2019 Paper Crafting

Hello! Today I have a couple cards re-creating the look of Bioluminescence using Distress Oxide inks. Did you know that over 90% of all jellyfish produce a chemical reaction that creates light? So cool! So today I thought a card showcasing that natural phenomenon would be fun.

I actually have had a REAL-LIFE encounter with a jellyfish. In fact, too close of an encounter! Yes, I was stung multiple times on the leg while I was snorkeling in Hawaii. But I was told that I was LUCKY…because it was only a “mild” one. And it only hurt for a few hours afterwards.

But that is why I enjoy jellyfish more on a CARD! Lol.

Just Keep Swimming, Just Keep Swimming…

I have a quick video showing the process of this card, including how I fixed an error on stamping the sentiment. (I always try to save a card after working so hard on it, if possible!)

Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:

These cards actually came together pretty quickly, and I think they will be great encouragement cards. You can make them as dramatic or subtle as you want, depending on the colors you choose.

I splattered water on the blue card, but not on the purple card. I like both ways. Which one do you like better?

Salt Water heals everything (except jellyfish stings!)

Have you ever met a jellyfish in the ocean? I’d love to hear your stories!

I hope you enjoyed these cards today. Thanks for stopping by!

May your days be filled with sunshine,
