Birthday Fishes

I used a pre-made card from DCWV for the card base.  I used my Cricut and the Elegant Edges cartridge to cut the light blue glitter cardstock.  I added some light blue pearls in the corners.
 
The fish and balloon were cut with my Silhouette.  I popped up the fin holding the balloon and popped the fish and balloon to the card.  I gave the fish some black pearls for eyes.
 
The seaweed is also from Silhouette.  The banner is from the Baby Shower cartridge.  I used Cricut Craft Room to size it that thin without changing its length.  I stamped it with a sentiment stamp from Scrappy Moms Stamps.  I wrapped the banner around a flat toothpick and adhered it down, with some foam tape in the middle to pop it up a little.
 
I made this for the following challenges:
