Hero Arts Deeply in Love Card

I am loving the new Hero Arts stamp set Deeply in Love. My husband was in the Navy and served on a submarine so I want to make a card for him. I first embossed the School of Fish with Versamark and Blueprint Sketch  Distress Oxide Ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. I used the emboss resist technique by inking over the background with three Distress Oxide Inks. I sprayed the background with water and sopped it up with a paper towel. I then wiped off card with a paper towel to remove the ink over the embossed fish and reheated the card with heat gun to make the fish shiny. I die cut three portholes, glued them together and embossed with gold embossing powder.  Next I used my Spectrum Noir Tri Blend markers to color my images. To make the porthole shine I added a circle of acetate under the porthole. I used foam tape to elevate the porthole. My hubby loved it and said that I outdid myself on this card.

To make this card I used:
