Fish

Okay, so I had tons of pictures of the fish at the New York Aquarium - fascinating creatures. I didn't want to devote pages and pages of my scrapbook to them. This is my solution. There are still more, but they will go in pocket pages. This layout was done by using my March Counterfeit Challenge kit. I added the bling (for bubbles) and chipboard (for coral). The chipboard pieces started out as trees. But see what happens when you chop off the trunks and paint them red? Sorry about the shadow in the bottom corner, I'm shooting with overhead lights. If I get a chance, I'll do a retake tomorrow in the daylight.
Thanks for stopping by and looking!

Great job. I agree I always have too many photos from our time at aquariums and zoos! I love the grid, one of my favorite designs! Great idea on the coral!
