something fishy

       I was up at the crack of dawn making party invites today.  It's a fish/ camouflage themed party and yet the only fish stamp I had was a tropical fish.  I decided to use more mustard, old olive, chocolate chip and close to cocoa ink to make the fish look less tropical and I just love how the invites turned out! 

   I used chocolate chip for the background & whisper white for the foreground.  I used the dot invitation stamp in chocolate chip for the words and a stem from one of my flower builder sets for the pole.  I then punched a hole at the top of the hole, added an eyelet in white and tied twine around it.  I used markers to color and stamp the fish, which I then cut out.  Holding two fish together, while slightly overlapping them I used my crop- a -dile to punch a hole near the mouths and attached another eyelet.  I threaded the twine through and now it looks like my fish are hanging from the end of my line.
