A card for my niece's boyfriend who LOVES fishing. He's younger than the Ralph image but he's the only fisherman stamp I have...hope he doesn't mind LOL!
Now for the fussy cutting, the image was stamped on marina mist and on whisper white. The WW image of Ralph was colored, fussy cut and glued on the original image. This was an experiment to try stamping on colored cardstock instead of sponging the sky & water. It was looking kind of flat with no definition between sky & water so I used 2 green markers to create a shoreline behind Ralph, a dauber to add darker blue ink to the water and white wisps for clouds. I'm liking the end result!
