What a lovely inspiration site it was today. I started out trying to find something that I could use some of my new stamps with, but when I found this Bubbly Fish Canvas, I gave up trying to find something, and went with the fish. DH loves this
A2 white base. I cut two shades of fancy blue papers using the Fiskars Beach Girl template for the ShapeCutter. Layered them all on a piece of white card.
The little punch-art fishes are made with scraps of DCWV card, using balloon punches for the bodies, daisy punches for the tails, circle punches cut up for the fins. The eyes are just a black Sakura glaze pen. Lots more circle punches ranging from 1/16" up to 1/2" for the bubbles.
Sentiment from Pocket Silhouettes stamped in blue, and Turquoise Stickles framing the picture.
Hard to get a good photo, as one of the papers is embossed metallic, and the other is glitter paper.
So much fun - thanks Stef. Hope you continue making a good recovery.

This is just too darn cute....I'm always looking for fish cards for my sister (stamp300) because she works for a seafood plant. Incredible creation you did here. Love it!
