Who’s for a swim? Today I share a very simple way to make a ‘Splash’ in your very own papercraft swimming pool!
Can you see that I am having some serious Yupo fun here and with the added ‘paving’ from the Abstract Paint Strokes stamp set and a Spread the Sparkle sentiment, it all came together perfectly!
I decided to film as I created.
You can see my video here or Watch it in HD at Youtube.
Today’s video features products that you can find at Ellen Hutson and I’ve linked them all below. Hope you are having the most fantastic day! Hugs

Your alcohol ink pool looks amazing! Super-cute card!
I enjoy seeing the effect you get from the rubbing alcohol in a mister on the alcohol inks – such a pretty result. Enjoy your new pool! 🙂
Super glam card! That pool water is amazing.
Delightful card! You’ve made me miss my old pool – downsizing means no grounds to accommodate a pool! Your Yupo panel is fantastic – so realistic – that pool die is fab!
That’s an awesome card!! Love the pool effect!
The pool looks fabulous.
What a cool pool! I might need to try this (although I don’t have the yupo yet) because it is hard to think of ideas of using the white mixitive! TFS!
I love the idea of the brick pavers surrounding that beautiful pool, Therese.
I was entranced seeing this fabulous scene come together, Therese … it’s fabulous … the detailing with all the different elements is fantastic … and I love that AI/Yupo pool (not messy then?!). Have you tried a piece of swiffer sheet to clear up the unwanted glitter … works a treat! Hugs, Anita 🙂
Hi Anita, I haven’t tried a swiffer sheet but do use a ‘glitter clean up cloth’ which is I think what they are called, I’ve had the same one for ever and it works a treat too. Thanks so much for stopping by and for your lovely lovely comments my friend, Crafty hugs, Therese x
Great minds think alike!! I’m a bit phobic about the messy alcohol inks but they make a cracking good water effect…love those ripples 😉 Yay for both of us having a pool too!! x
fantastic card Therese, unbelievable ideas they are coming out with these days. Love your water alcohol ink, have to try it.
