Holiday Fishes

Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! In case you're wondering, since it's time for the Splitcoast Fan Club Christmas Challenge again & we have this new Best Fishes greeting, I thought I'd see if I could combine the two. Years ago I sent my brother in law a Best Fishes Holiday card since he & his wife love to fish so that gave me the idea for this card. Plus I love this Jumping Fish image.
After I stamped & colored the image, I added some wink of Stella to the fish & Christmas lights & I'm really surprised it shows up as well as it does. The Best Fishes was stamped on the white frame along w/ the Christmas lights then I used my "into the window" to cut out the oval opening. I added a black oval frame then attached my fish image behind it.
Here's the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!
Supplies:
stamps: DRS Designs: Jumping Fish, Best Fishes Hook, Gnome for the Holidays, Christmas Light String (inside: Seas and Greetings, 4 in 1 Ocean Designs )
paper: Staples 110# white, black
ink: Memento tuxedo black
accessories: Rubbernecker Rectangle Stitch, Oval, Oval Stitch Frame dies, Copic Markers, Wink of Stella
