Gone Fishing


It's time for another Monday Greeting Card challenge at The Outlawz. This is my second week as a Guest Designer and I'm having great fun. The theme this week is Hot Summer Nights - Show us how you keep cool in the summer! The sponsor this week is Bugaboo Stamps and I chose to use their sunbonnet fish 2 image. Isn't it adorable?

I printed the image on white card stock and colored it with Copic markers (skin - E00, R02; hat - E51 E53, E55; worm - E11, E13; dock and pole - E33, E35, E37; shirt - G94, G99; overalls - B93, B95, B97; water - B91, B95). The sun was cut using my Silhouette Cameo. I distressed it with Calypso Coral ink from Stampin' Up! and I added a yellow crystal. The fish with the greeting Gone Fishing was also cut on my Silhouette Cameo. This is an image from their online store. I distressed the fish and the edges of the white card stock with Certainly Celery ink from Stampin' Up! This was mounted on a piece of black card stock and then designer paper from my stash. What you can't see is thee design on the paper is little fish. This was mounted on another piece of black card stock and put on a white card base.

I hope you get a chance to join us this week for this wonderful challenge!
