There's More Fish in the Sea.....

SOS Headquarters

Hello everyone: The SHOPPING OUR STASH challenge has a fun, "fishy" one for you, this time we want you to "Go Fishing" and show us some fishies on your cards, big fish, little fish and everything in between.
 Here's the card I created to inspire you to come and join my teammates and me in our gallery.


This card was made using a beautiful Stampin' Up! set called "All the Good Things" that came out one year ago last June. I love this beautiful Koi fish and the other images plus, the sentiments are amazing. The Lily Pads and flowers are from a 2009 Flourishes set called "Peace Within" and the bubbles are from a set by Designs by Ryn called "Water Effects".
I placed a piece of vellum on top of the fish to give the appearance of water and to have the Water Lillies look like they are floating on top.

***********************************************************

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.


The sentiment is from the SU set and the little fish in the corner from the Flourishes set.

Thank you for stopping by, your comments always make my day.
Hugs.
Maria.

Hello, Maria! This is surely the most realistic and beautiful Koi or Goldfish! What a lovely, soft card with the vellum. I have a day with good WiFi, so stopping in to visit before we leave in the morning. Should be home in a few days. Sending hugs!
