I saw Jenn Sannes' anniversary card earlier this summer and fell in love with her little punch art fish. Jenn's style is clean and simple and I am often inspired by her "Simple & Sincere" cards. I combined the little punch fish with some rubber-banded brayered waves for this thank you card.
To make the background, wrap a couple rubber bands around your rubber brayer, ink, and roll. You could also use this technique for grass or party streamers. I used the 1-1/4" Circle Punch at the top to make the waves.
Here are the pieces you need to make the fish:
Supplies: Think Happy Thoughts, Bermuda Bay ink & cardstock, Crushed Curry cardstock, Melon Mambo cardstock, Whisper White cardstock, Scallop Edge Punch, 1-1/4" & 1-3/8" Circle Punches, 1/2" Circle Punch, 1/4" Circle Punch, 5-Petal Flower Punch, Heart to Heart Punch, Double Circle Punch, Brayer, 2-Way Glue Pen, Mini Glue Dots

Thank you so much for sharing with us.
Great project. Turned out super .... even with the small cutouts! ;-)
I have a brayer and haven't used it at all. I can't wait to make this and use my circle punches. Vivian
Wow, this is by far the cutest I've seen with the rubber band on the brayer technique. Very cute.
This is cute, cute, cute!!! I'll definitely be trying this one!
That fish is soooo cute ! Thanks for the detailed punch and cut directions. I love the watery effect you achieved by using the rubber bands. It looks great !
