No Bait-ing Around! by Janet

My husband and brother-in-law love to fish together and these guys really remind me of the two of them. They're only 13 months apart and are as close as brothers can get. The boat with the guys and the fish are from 4900 Reel Great Guys. If you have any guys in your life that enjoy fishing, this is a great set for all kinds of occasions.

I stamped the boat image on an A2 alcohol ink friendly cardstock and then colored it with Copic markers. After coloring in an upper level of water, I cut two cardstock waves and layered them below the boat. Then I cut another cloud border for the top of the card. I created a sun by stacking two of the smallest 5064 Circle Double-Stitched Dies. I stamped, colored, and cut out the fish image and adhered it to the card with foam tape. The last touch was adding the boat name with a black fine tip pen.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and don't forget to enter your tag in our challenge. I hope you'll stop by the store soon for all your card and tag making needs.

A nice masculine card. I hope your husband or brother-in -law, or whoever is the lucky recipient enjoys your card. I think your final touch of adding a name to the boat is a nice finishing touch. I will have to steal your idea the next time I use this set.

Thanks Deb and Cynthia. Totally agree this is one of my favorites too. There’s lots of options to create a perfect card for a fisherman. It would be super on a scrapbook page too. 🙂
