Default sushi card ideas?

My friend hosted a sushi bar last night and taught a group of us how to make sushi. It was a blast! I'd like to make a sushi themed card, but the gallery is pretty limited. I have birthday banter (sardines, but not in the sushi) and then the old retired fish set. Any ideas for those or any other non-fish sets? TIA!

I did a google search for sushi clip art and came up with some images that you may be able to incorporate into a card:

Or using circles, spirals and squares, you can stamp up a few that look like sushi and use toothpicks for chopsticks. Otherwise, that chef stamp with a fish on top of the platter with some chop sticks would be an idea too.

Check out these sushi buttons! I wonder if you could find something like this and just use a couple to embellish a thank you card:

More sushi buttons:

Maybe you could put one of those gel globes (or whatever those clear buttons are called that you place over images) over some sushi clip art to look like a button.

I personally would make a card that looked like a maki roll. You could go to town with textured CS and texturising tools.

Ok, here's what I came up with. I will say that this is really what it looks like when you make it...but not exactly a "pretty" card. I think she'll appreciate the effort though.
