Hello! Today I’m sharing a handmade card that brings the underwater world to life! Using a Hero Arts die set, I created a vibrant ocean scene filled with sea creatures—a turtle, a seahorse, and a crab. The layered die cuts add depth and movement, while the simple “hello there” sentiment keeps things light and friendly.
