Super quick post

Hi Guys,

I have about 5 mins before work so here goes.

It is my cousin's son's 9th b'day on Saturday. He is a real water boy and fisherman. A few weeks ago the gorgeous Keesh posted this card (the top one) and I loved it. I asked if she would mind stamping me some images and she was a real sweetheart and did so. I wish my card was as good as hers. It's nearly enough to get me into Copics, if only they were cheaper!!!

Here's my card:




I coloured the Fisha Fella with my markers and blender pen. I Used, of course, the Celebrations DSP and the matching CS of Real Red, Pear Pizazz & Pacific Point. The fish are from a retired set.The '9' is again cut out using my Timeless Type dies & my Big Shot, and it is covered in Crystal Effects. I cut the circles out with punches, and popped it all up on dimensionals.

Whew, I can take a breath. That's it, in about 5 mins total.

A big cheerio to Andrea as she waits for that Grandbaby to come. Hang in there Andrea!

Cheers,
Fi x
