Biblical Impressions Fishes

Hello!
Today's post features three 
 Angel Fish 83204, Coral 31809
 and Silly Fish 31807


I started with a small circle and stamped 
the coral on it.
 I stamped and cut out each fish 
and after coloring, 
adhered them with mounting tape. 
I poured Diamond Glaze over the entire image
 to give it a water like look.

I added more circles in graduating sizes,
 adhered them to a embossed panel,
 then onto the card.

Thanks for visiting today!
Hope to see you again!
