More punch fun

I totally cannot take credit for this design. Whenever new punches come out, the talented Stampin' Up! demonstrators find tons of uses for them outside of their intended design and use. After our ornament punch was released a few years ago, the idea of turning the ornament into a fish started popping up on other demo's blogs. I've been wanting to try it for awhile, and once again, my crafting blog was the perfect excuse to get off my lazy butt and make it!

There are lots of other punches at work here too. The ornament is the basic body shape. I punched several of them, one for the base, then I used the scallop circle punch on the others to make pieces to use as scales. I used the five petal flower punch to make the tail and the fins and the modern label punch to make the top fin. I used the owl punch to make the eyes and the hearts.
