CASology Week 49 - FISH


This card was created for CASology and the cue word is fish.  I stamped with black versafine ink a portion of the My Favorite Things stamp "Fred Goes Fishing," and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  The image was colored with copics and parts of the water were highlighted with white pigment ink.  I die cut using Spellbinders large classic oval.  The verbiage was also heat embossed.  I mounted the fishy with popups.  This card will probably be given to the mister for our 46th anniversary next month - egads!
Note: MFT retired their Fred stamps but fortunately I have several.

Stamp - My Favorite Things "Fred Goes Fishing"
Paper - Neenah
Ink - Versafine, Uni-ball White Pigment Ink
Copics
Spellbinders Die - Large Classic Oval

  1. Look at all that white space! :) I love the way you drew the eye to the main image by framing it with an oval and popping it up for dimension!
    Congratulations on 46 years! Wow!
    Thanks so much for joining us at CASology this week! :)

  2. I get a Suessian feel from this (I'm thinking McElligots' pool or something like that?) I think because you can't see the fisherman. I love the beautiful simplicity of it. Funny how 46 years can seem like a long time - I just turned 46 and yet somehow I still think I'm 21. OK 30. lol! Thanks so much for playing along with us at CASology this week!

  4. Ah, a perfectly CAS card and adorable on top of it all! Did you say 46 years? Yes, I'd say you were both a "great catch" for each other! Congrats! Like Ardyth, I thought of Dr. Seuss when I first saw this image! So cute! Thanks for playing along at CASology this week!
