Life in A Fishbowl
by Ilona Zbieg

Animals, Birthday, Watercolor

Hi all.

Today is second day with Poppystamps Blog Blitz when I inspire you.

As you noticed on my previous cards I prepared background using several colors of  watercolor ink. I sewed card around. Bottom text is actually half stamp ' happy' and half die 'birthday' which is Poppystamps 1474-Hip-Birthday-Wishes.

In the centre I stuck in order: frame, structured paper square and then you have our main prize die with lovely yellow fishes which are cut with the same die but different paper. 

If you want to win Life in a Fishbowl dies, you need to leave a comment. 

The blog blitz showing new Poppystamps releases runs April 14 -27 .

 We're giving away a prize on every post!  All you need to do is leave a comment on EACH of the  posts that you wish to enter.   You have until midnight US EST  April 28 to leave a comment on each and every post that you want to enter.
