Hello and Welcome!
So I've been busy stamping lately for my July term on the Dirty Dozen team (which sadly I can't show you those cards right now).
However I do have a card that I can show you today!
My nieces husband's birthday is today. They both love fishing so I thought I would whip up a fast fishing themed card for him.
I used Unity Stamps (Reel Great Guy) stamp set and patterned paper also from Unity (Takin' em Fishin")
I used two patterns cut them out, glued on top of the other and then cut it out with a Scalloped Rectangle die.
The fishing lure image was stamped with Pecan Pie ink on a piece of old retired SU card stock and colored with pencils and blended with gamsol. I edged the piece with some Crushed Curry ink and cut a portion of it off. - Then I mounted that to the card edge with foam tape.
The sentiment was stamped on a Fishtail Die with Mossy Meadow ink and also mounted with foam tape. I added 3 small gold gems to complete the card.
I also sprayed some distress spray on the image which gives it a bit of a shimmer. You can sort of see it in the picture below.
Quick, Easy and perfect for a guy/or gal who love fishing!
What a great card that is. My son-in-law is in to fishing and it seems like I'm always on the lookout for fishing themed stuff to get him for birthdays or Christmas.
