CAS on Friday #341 - Make a Round Card


Boy, this one was a hard one for me to design for the CAS on Friday #341 Make a Round Card challenge. Round?! Like, not an A2 rectangle? Eww! Fortunately, I had the Lawn Fawn Christmas Fishes set on my desk and it occurred to me that I could make the card base into a fish bowl.  Eureka!
