The above card uses a die cut fish bowl from Creative Cuts & More - using Doublemates cardstock - love this cardstock, it has a different complimentary color on each side.  The stamp set is “Bubbles” (Our Craft Lounge), colored with COPICS and cut with Exacto knife and adhered to the inside of fish bowl, circle dies cut with Spellbinders and then a little highlight with “Under the Sea” Blingz (Shimmerz Paintz)

This sample uses some K& Company DP with orange laser cut paper on top, Bazzill smoothie paper  die cut for the sentiment and matting for main image.  The main image is “Oceans of Fun” and sentiment “Bubbles”  from Our Craft Lounge.  A huge THANKS to all who played in the hop - I know you are just loving the new sets!!!!!  I really appreciate everyone’s kind comments and wonder response to this AWESOME release!!  Enjoy and Create, Lila
