Best Fishes

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

I had some fishy fun lately.



The collage die used in the background was a gift from a sweet friend and had been
sitting in my NBUS box too long.

I die cut some fish from an piece of watercolor background and added a
piece of embossed waves that I found in my UFO box to go with it.

I didn't have any fishy sentiments so I did some on the computer and die
cut with a banner die.


For this card, I used another collage die and did some sponging and stamping
on the background.  After stamping some bubbles, I embossed the top panel
and added a goldfish.

Thanks to this sweet friend, I have two more birthday cards for the stash.

That die makes a great underwater cave for your fish to explore, Bonnie. The bubbles look great with that sweet goldfish and I love the coral too.

Both the cards are adorable. I love how the underwater scene lies beneath the window you've die cut and the beautiful fishes are swimming above. It's really a lovely CAS design, but I also love the little details you've added to both the cards. Thank you so much for joining us at the Seize the Birthday challenge!
