Remember that song from Sesame Street in the 1970s, "One of These Things"? It was always a highlight for me when I'd watch the show.
It occurred to me when I made this card last night (with already-stamped-and-colored images from my 'baggie') that I included one fish that does not look like the others. See the different fellow on the top right? His tail fin is orange, whereas everyone else has a yellow one. It wasn't intentional, but hey, it's good to be different, right?
I used this week's Mojo Monday sketch:
and played at Let's Ink It Up, where you are supposed to use yellow somewhere on your card.
I used Crystal Effects by SU on the fishes' black stripes and also on their bubbles. Here is a close up so you might see that better:
The designer paper is courtesy of my 8 year old daughter, Kerry. It is a sheet from her fashion designing kit. She wanted me to have it. Isn't that sweet? So Kerry, this card is dedicated to you, Punkin!
I hope to stamp another card soon, but forgive me if I don't have another post this week. I am packing for Disney World! There is much to do before we leave.
Have a wonderful day!
Colleen

How great is this card. It's a good job you told me which was different as I hadn't spotted it.

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh--I LOVED that segment on Sesame Street!! But I got stumped by your card. Silly me--couldn't see that it was the upper right one that was different. My story is extreme exhaustion from vacation--and I'm sticking with it LOL!! Super cute card, love how you used the sketch :)
