    Say 'best fishes' with this sparkling underwater scene by Judy Balchin

    You will need:

    Basic card kit, plus...

    • White card blank
    • Orange, pink & lime green card
    • Pink, green & transparent sequins
    • Googly eye
    • Black fineliner pen
    • Jar image (download the pdf file below)

    Step 1

    Print the jar image (download below, under 'Need a hand with this project?'). Cut out the image and glue it on to your card blank, aligning the left side of the image with the fold.

    Step 2

    With the card closed, cut around the edges of the image with a craft knife to create a jar-shaped card. 

    Step 3

    Trace the three sections of the fish template on to different coloured card and cut out. Layer the pieces together to make the tropical fish.

    Step 4

    Decorate the fish with pink, green and transparent sequins, then glue the googly eye in place.

    Step 5

    Attach the fish to the card using sticky foam pads. Write a sentiment across the top of the card with a fineliner pen.
