The girls had a great day out today with Nanny and Grandad which gave me a little time to play with some of the fish characters from the High Hopes new releases. I made this card for the girls to give to their Nanny when we go to visit her next week. We are going to Plymouth's National Marine Aquarium so these stamps were just perfect. All stamps are available to buy from Silly Monkey Crafts.
Can't wait to make some more cards with these fun characters.
Hugs,

Fabulous card Nikki! Love your layout and the colouring is superb - really like the bling on the fish. Your girls are adorable and this will be a treasure I'm sure for your mom. Since I told my girls about Crafty Monkeys, they've been asking daily to checkout the site and start a project. They're really excited and after this weekend's festivities they'll start working on their project. Such a great idea to have a blog/challenge for kids. Have a great weekend, Maria
