A very special thank you to "The Aquarium"



Today's post is a very special one to me because this card has so much meaning.  For many years, my hubby has dreamed of having a salt water aquarium and his dream is coming true.  On Friday we visited our new favorite store in town: The Aquarium.  We asked a ton of questions that were all met with enthusiasm and patience from the owners.

Yesterday, Sunday, I was still so thrilled about the wonderful service we received there that I sat down to make a thank you card that I am mailing today.

The aquarium itself is made with Marina Mist in the background and a piece of Window Sheet  for the front.  The plant life is Pear Pizzaz punched out with the 2-step Bird Punch (117191) and the grass is Certainly Celery 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon (109031) that I freyed to get the look.  The coral sand is a strip of Whisper White cardstock that I sponged with Crumb Cake ink.

The fish is from an old retired favorite set of mine but there are a few current sets that include fish you could use: 
This same card could also be done by cutting your Window Sheet in a cirle and chop of a little top and bottom to make it look like a fish bowl.  There are no limits to your imagination.

If you need any help or have questions, call (316-440-8893) or email me (tanja@spunkycards.com) for help.
