This card
was my inspiration. I think I have a stamp that says "Good Fishes" but couldn't lay my hands on it today. I will keep looking or computer generate it before it is mailed or I may not add anything. Who knows? I do have a goldfish stamp, but when I had aquariums many years ago, the Black Lace Angel fish was my favorite and I often came home carrying a bag similar to this. Brings back great memories and also reminds me that I don't ever want aquariums again - toooo much work!
I stamped my RubberStampede bag in VersaMark and embossed with opaque ep, cut it out and mounted it on Cuttlebugged paper with a couple of wave borders from Fiskars. Added a PSX angel fish stamped in VersaFineOnyx Black and clear ep, Cut out fish and stickled it. Stamped more fish on the envelope and VOILA!

Oh, this is so cute, Phyllis. I love that bag and brings back memories for me, too. I had a complete aquarium to break once....forgot why. But, it was a mess. And, for sure, they are a lot of work. Mine was, at least. Love your envie, too.

I love your fish tank look, Phyllis, and angel fish were always my favorites to watch, but I agree with you that an aquarium is way too much work to keep up! Love the fish on the envie~
