I used the fish bowl Die Cut from Creative Cuts and More.
I created the "wood signs" by printing up the words on my computer and coloring the background with Copic Marker E33 then using a water based brown marker to draw the wood grain. Once I was done with that, I swiped my Espresso Brown ink pad across the sides and along the words to give it a bit more distressed look.
To create the clouds, I cut a piece of scrap paper to shape them and then grabbed my white craft pad and a sponge dauber and created the cloud background on the Soft Sky card stock. I stamped the image and colored it up with my Copic Markers. To create the high lights in the water, I used my white gel pen!

ABSOLUTELY *fintastic*. A friend who loves fishing has a birthday coming up... I think I know what his next card is going to look like;-) You did a fabulous job of making the signs look like wood.
