You know, you can take house cleaning a little too far at times. And I am not saying Juju goes overboard, but next time it's her day to clean the fish tank- I say RUN!!!!
Gosh, this crazy lil image has been sitting on my stamp table for a month! A month! And every time Juju is over, I tell her I am going to make a card with it. Looks easy, huh? Not so. I stamped this dang thing 12 times over on nice, shiny photo paper, to get the 'look' I wanted. Not happenin'! Finally embossed on watercolor paper in black and cut it out. The center is raised on pop dots and the fish is covered in MS glitter. Whew! Done!
Thanks to Kristin, I had the perfect layout. Her card is quite elegant and lovely (as opposed to my "just plain silly version"!) and I had so much fun in her gallery! I chose Inspired by Thanks, changing it to a 5x5, using different stamps and colors. Kristin, it has been fun getting to know you via the FS! Hope you have a blast seeing what you have inspired!
Thanks for looking!

Super cute - worth the trials and errors (not sure you could make an error - most of us would have gone with the first stamp you did I am sure - Hee Hee - copying Bertlady- Hee Hee)! Love the glitter - makes it pop! Cute papers too. Adorable case my friend! LY!

Ha Ha! Love how your brain works. This cute idea is even better with bubble and wave paper in the BG and a gem dial on the washer. Hey! Washer bling the next big retail craze for the rich!
