Gone Fishing * Studio Calico Kit

I am not typically a themed scrapbooker. This layout is not my typical style as far as themed die cuts but when I saw this cute little Nemo looking fish in the Silhouette store, I knew I had to have it for a layout of my niece.  She has loved Nemo since she was only about 1 or 2 years old. She has a stuffed Nemo that she has carried since then and she is now 8! Nemo has been around the world! 

So I thought it was only fitting that I use him on this layout of her at the Aquarium Restaurant when she came to visit last month. 

I used the Studio Calico Summer of "69 kit.

I love the bug-eyes on this little fish! Isn't he cute!

Needless to say, my niece thinks I'm the greatest thing since I could cut Nemo out of paper!

I still tried to keep to my style even though I was using a fun element. I like that challenge.

Of course, loose threads and sewing had to be in there somehow!

The arrow stamps are from the Summer Stamp School class at Studio Calico.

I hope you enjoyed this! I thought it was just a cute fun layout to share!  It was worth it to know my niece thinks I'm a hero!

Happy Wednesday!
