Ahoy Little Fishes!

Today I am posting with the Design Team from All Dressed Up with our inspirational cards for the August Challenge.

I'd like to share a fun little summer card using 'Little Fishes'.  I think I could see this little fellow out my window any day here at my home on Lake Murray in South Carolina (USA). 

This little fellow with his sailor hat and his faithful doggy are out for a spin with the colorful fishes.  

After sizing the image I printed him on #110 Neenah cardstock and have used my Copic markers for coloring.  Then I die cut the oval using Gina Marie Designs Stitched Oval Dies.  

I found the fun water background paper in my stash and love how the oval fits right in the waves. Once the design was secured, I added clear Wink of Stella to all the little fishes near the boat.  I didn't want a bow for this card but found a piece of 'Summer Fun' ribbon to secure across the top of the card to complete the design.

Be sure to check out all the All Dressed Up Design Team cards on the Challenge Blog.  We'd love to see your entry too! 

Thank you for stopping by today to view my blog. I enjoy sharing my work with you and invite you to 'Follow' my blog and to visit my site - "Not Just Scraps' on Facebook - where you can purchase my cards.
