Smells a little fishy

I did another gate card, this one was using an image from Squigglefly, called a Floating Thought ,  When I was given this image to create a card with I must admit I said What can I do with it.  Animal images are not my thing.  So I decided lets go outside of the box.  So I made the image large, and colored it as a gold fish.

Then after coloring it with copic markers  I used a glossy accents to make the image stand out.  The next fun thing was my darling Husband's idea.. Chico gives me hints on my cards when I am not sure where to go.. he said it needed bubbles.  Now how do you make bubbles.. Well I decided to use small plastic accents. These where clear but I took an alcohol ink stream colored. and dyed the clear plastic,.. I read about this someplace.
Next I turned to the Squigglefly design team for help with the say inside..
And my favorite came from Terri .. This card is going to my  older sister.. so do not tell her..
Thanks for visiting

Debbie, this is wonderful! I love the glossy accents on the fish, and your husband had a great idea with the bubbles. kudos to you for thinking to color them! Terri's sentiment is hilarious! I'll bet your sister loves it.
