How To Make A Delightful, Worry Free Aquarium
A delightful, worry free aquarium is just an empty jar and quick how-to away! Charity here, no need to know all about salt water fish and how to keep them happy. Just round up some stamps, pigment ink, and your favorite colors of Rinea Foiled Paper for a worry free beauty made by you!
~ Foiled Fish Aquarium ~
I knew I wanted a lot of different colors in my aquarium so I used the Jewels Variety Pack of Rinea Foiled Paper. This set has both glossy and star embossed papers.
Pigment ink stamps easily onto Rinea Foiled Paper but are just as easy to smear. The good thing with that is a smear can be cleaned off and the same paper re-stamped. Heat embossing the Foiled Paper is tricky but with a light hand and a little practice, it is no big deal. One tip is to emboss one image, or a portion of an image at a time, allowing the paper to cool between.
I placed the largest piece of "coral" at the center of the jar then built out from that on either side. I used different colored paper for the fish and coral but the same stamp. This view of the side gives an idea of the many layers.
If you are looking for an unusual gift or just a conversation piece this is it. Find an unusually shaped jar and fill it with Rinea Foiled Paper shapes. It is sure to please where ever you take it. Check my blog Scrappin' Chaos for a list of supplies.
Scrap On!
