Hero Arts Layering Stamps: Goldfish


The Challenge at Bastel traum is Thank You cards and at CASology it is FRAMES and at Papirdesign: it's all about the stamp -  this is my take. I used the super fun Goldfish layering set from Hero Arts for my card.



At Scrappegarasjen: the challenge is Less is more and it is a great card for a man too; Stamping Sensations - For the boys
And of course I have to enter the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge; - music with inspiration from A Swedish song called - Jag går och fiskar (I'm going fishing) by Gyllene Tider, but since most of you won't know (except for Anna-Karin (-: ) that song I found a fun old  Dolly's song called Something Fishy in which her dh goes fishing and there's something fishy going on  (-;

Have a great day
