Birthday Fish Smoosh card

Hello and happy Saturday!  Today I'm sharing a card for the latest Catch the Bug Challenge Blog: Color Inspiration (please see blog for color swatch).


I'm not big on color challenges because I never feel I have the right color papers, so this time, I made my own.  I did the watercolor smoosh technique to hopefully get the correct colors, then I colored my cute fish from the Under the Sea Birthday Set from Bugaboo Stamps.  I finished this off with some sequins bubbles, a little glaze, and a Stampin' Up Paper Pumpkin kit sentiment.
See the glossy goodness on his eyes?  I've used this guy before and just love his expression.  Plus, fish seem to be the only "pet" I'm not allergic to.  So join in on this week's color challenge if you get a chance!  Thanks so much for stopping by.

This meets the following challenges: Creative Fingers: Anything Goes,  Polkadoodles: Anything Goes, Cardz TV # 71: Anything Goes, and Crafty Creations: Anything Goes.
