Fun Fish Card for Heart 2 Heart Photo Inspiration

I had a bit of extra time today and decided to use it to create a card to enter into the Heart 2 Heart Photo Inspiration Challenge.  The design really spoke to me right away and I started thinking about how I would use that design in my project.

I envisioned the design as a water scene with a colorful fish below and a sunny sky above. I only used one fish but stamped a bunch of bubbles to make it seems like a school of fish was swimming by! The sun is popped up with some thin foam tape for some added dimension. 

At this point I liked what I had done but needed something in the sky besides the sun. I found an image that could work as a cloud and stamped it in a light color to suggest clouds. Then I outlined the images to give it more of a cloud look...and some sparkle. I also painted the fish and bubbles with a bit of shimmer, too.

The small oval-is shape on the right is the one I used for the clouds.
