Fun fishy

Just popping in today to share a fun card I made on my crafty weekend away.



All the shapes are cut using my Cricut cute critters cartridge. What I particularly like about this card is the fish bowl shape for the card. I cut three bowls - two in white card and one onto a sheet of acetate and then I decorated the top white bowl before tying all the layers together with twine. The acetate on the front is not adhered down but just rests nicely over the white card base and gives it a realistic glass bowl affect. Here's a couple of shots to try and show you the acetate layer.




I'm hoping my youngest will like this one!

    Hope you weren't up to any 'fishy business' on your crafty weekend away! (sorry - poor joke, I know but I couldn't resist :D)
    You totally work that Cricut so well - you make me want one!
