Having asthma and allergies has prevented me from having furry pets throughout my life, and now two of my four children have the same issues. However, we have had fish for several years, so they are our "family pets!"
Would you believe my daughter had the same goldfish for over four years and it grew to seven inches long before it died? It even jumped out of its tank once and survived! We found it flopping on the kitchen floor one day when we returned home from a day out, immediately placed it back in the tank, and it was fine! (And they say cats have nine lives!)
So, needless to say, this card was inspired by our family pets...our fish!
I highlighted the spotty fish with Glossy Accents and added some glossy bubbles, too!
Supplies Used:
Fish stamp from "Sea Mates" by The Alley Way Stamps
Mason jar from "Oh So Fun" by Precious Remembrance Shop
Sentiment stamp from "You" by Simon Says Stamp
Glossy Accents, Copic markers

This is SO cute, Judy! Those Glossy Accents are so perfectly fitting for a fish and its bubbles! :) My siblings and I only had fish growing up and I have fond memories of sitting in front of our big fish tank in the dark just watching the fish! We especially loved watching when new babies arrived!
