I made this card for my father-in-law (he loves fishing!) and it is for the weeks Cute Card Thursday Challenge and also challenge 172 on Splitcoaststampers. This weeks Cute Card Thursday Challenge is to make a card for the men and boys in your lives! Image used: Magnolia Fishing Edwin. Papers used: Cherry Arte "Kitty Lou - Sweet Blossoms". Bazzill Bling Blank Cheque, In the Pink & Emerald City : Happy Birthday cuttlebug embossing Folder. Added a real fly and fish brad! Image coloured with my Prismacolour pencils with sansador and paper stumps to blend. Also used my Sakura stardust pen and Twinkling H2O for the water. The lettering was cut from the Mickey and Friends cartridge on my Cricut. I cut this out on a cereal box to give the lettering a chipboard effect. I am so pleased with how this card turned out.

A fantastic card Nikki! I love that fly on the hook and all the dimension in the card. Great colouring too. Your father-in-law is going to be so pleased when he opens it. Thanks also for the lovely comment you left on my card.
