PP 359 - Best Fishes!

Hello and welcome back! Today's card is for the challenge at The Paper Players. 

And here is my card:

I've only inked up this stamp set once, but for some reason today, that goldfish called out to me! I'll be using this card as a belated birthday greeting, so I wanted to make the fish look like a gift sitting on a tabletop. The clouds in the background could be the sky or wallpaper. 

I created the piece for the sentiment by stamping "Best Fishes" and punching it out with the end of the new Everyday Label Punch, and then turning the piece around and punching it again to get the smaller shape. The "tablecloth" has been "blinged up" with some Wink of Stella. You can sort of see it in the photo below. It's really tricky to photograph Wink of Stella, but it adds so much to a card.

That's it for today -  thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
