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.
