AUG08VSNB - Happy Fishes

Photo Details

Poster: studbo

A VSN challenge card -- the childhood storybook I was inspired by was Dr. Seuss's "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish." I loved all of his books and had to buy them for my own kids. They sure are tongue-twisters when you read them out loud. My oldest learned to read with his books - his favorite was "Go Dog, Go."

So cute. I remember this book--not from my childhood---but from my son's. Those books are so special, I wish we had kept them. Adorable card.

That is really cute and I liked both of those books both from my own childhood and from reading them to the kids. Neat layout and nice take on the challenge.

Delightful card, Linda. I love the checkerboard background and your red and blue fish. Who doesn't love Dr. Seuss...and how many children grew up loving to read because of his books.

So cute! I love the CDS fishies for this! Great colors and DP for this fun card!

We are big Dr. Seuss fans too, both from my own childhood, and from my son's. We homeschool, and had a big stack of these books for early readers. They were perfect because they were easy and fun for him and sentimental for me!
