Well Stef, you did it again. Wonderful site to inspire us all. And to think, I was going to clean house instead of making a card. What was I thinking! hehe......details....
I was inspired by this window only I changed the beetle into a fat smoochie fish.
I stamped the fish twice so I could pop him/her up. Colored it with twinkling H2O's, then cut out.
Took two panels of glossy cs and did alcohol bg's on both using different colors. The black lines where drawn on with a black copic maker.
Put my panels and popped up fish on a tropical AC cs that I also added lines to. I was really trying to get the "stain glass" look. Hopefully I achieved that.
Well, back to cleaning. Hope you all have a great weekend! I shall return later.......TFL :0)

Man you did a great job on the back ground behind the fish! It looks just like your stained glass inspiration piece, except w/o the Beetle. I like your smooching fish better! Looks great nice card!

Cathy, what a FAB card. I can obviously learn a LOT from you on dealing with alcohol inks!! Love the bg effects you created. And your "head-on" fish is such a great take on the fish motif. I can always count on your to do the "beyond usual" cards. Love'm!!
Thanks, for the finger-cleaning tip of rubbing alcohol(it worked)...I was hoping maybe a gin & tonic would do the trick...I could just dip and lick! : ) It is almost 100 degrees here so a G & T would be refreshing! ; ) Hugs, Sallie
