FINTASTIC FRIENDS - A BIRTHDAY CARD

I got this card idea from a Lawn Fawn video created by Yainea.  I made a couple of minor changes but the layout was taken from the video.  

The changes I made: 1) I did not use water in mine.  I used hair gel instead (the gel has little bubbles in it which I think enhances the overall effect).  2) I did not use the plastic sheet in front of the bowl.  I really liked the way it looked without it.  

I did all of my stamping and coloring separately, fussy-cut the shapes and popped them up using 3-D adhesive.  I used Copic markers to color the images.

 I love this technique!  When you press on the "water" it looks like the fish are actually moving around; plus it gives the bowl a 3-dimensional look.  

This is my finished card along with its coordinating envelope.



And the inside of the card - 



I cut a wave from the same pattern paper used on the front of the card and placed it at the bottom inside of the card.
