Hi Everyone! If you saw my last 'Best Catch' card, you saw that I made a lot of cut outs with the Stitched Rectangle Framelits. Well, I cut twenty of those cards, so I had a lot of rectangles in Wood Textures, Tranquil Tide, and Early Espresso, so I needed to do something with them! I used the various rectangles to make this second version of the Best Catch Card.
I really enjoyed coloring the fish, and so I made another video with that as the focus. I used Aqua Painters and Tranquil Tide, Berry Burst, and Lemon Lime Twist ink to color the fist. I also used the Crackle Paint background stamp set on the Tranquil Tide rectangle.

Hi Everyone! Today I am creating a birthday card for my brother. He is a nature guy. He loves to be out on a lake, or in the woods. He also loves to grill up what he gets from the lake and the woods :)
I loved this stamp set, Best Catch right away because I have so many flowery stamps and 'pretty' stamp sets, and it is nice to have something more masculine or nature feeling. Not that women don't fish, I just don't happen to be one of them. Not for me, that's for sure. Although when my boys were in a fishing derby for scouts I hooked the worms with out a flinch, couldn't let them see me be squeamish.
Anyway, back to the card. This is a Tri-Fold and so there are two windows that show through to the center. Here is what it looks like when you open the first fold. I also made a version with the Dad stamp as well.
When you open the next flap you see the fisherman and there is a space underneath at the bottom where you can sign your name.
I made a video showing how to paint the fish as well as how to put it all together. It's a bit on the long side I have to admit, but I didn't know quite what to edit out., But, you can fast forward through the painting if that's not your thing. I think it is super fun and I am sure it will be liked by my brother.
