This is for todays challenge "Two Lumps of Sugar" What a FABULOUS site. Thanks Stef and Arleen for a great challenge. My DH the fisherman is off to catch the big one today, so thought this tempered plate "Fish-A-Licious", was the perfect inspiration http://twolumpsofsugar.net/Product/F...P302-0604.html
I tried to reverse stamp the fish so both corners were facing in, but couldn't do it. Watercoloured the fish, the centre one is covered with clear ep, cut out and popped up. Freehand wrote Best Fishes around the edge.
Happy Saturday and TFL.

Love your inspired creation! I was hoping I had some more realistic fish stamps in my stash when I saw that image. But not. You rocked it!

Oh those elusive male cards. I have a hard time leaving off flowers!! This is perfect and I love your hand written sentiment. Beautifully done. The fisherman is sure to find it perfect, but hopefully he'll catch more than just his wife's fabulous creation!!
