Blooming Flowers in a Pot

We made this wonderful card at our April Rocky Mountain Stampers meeting.  This was Connie Ingram's card for the April Stamp Camp South.   Love it!!!!!

My first card was made using two new stamp sets in our Occasions Catalog.  I wanted to make this a pastel Valentine.  I cut out the two largest fish and popped them up.  On the pink girl fish.
