Congratulations to this weeks featured stamper "Love Stampin" - you have a wonderful gallery.
I also combined it with the World Card Making Day challenge - Show me Trees.
Here is this card I cased. WT167 masculine going fishing by Love Stampin!!!!!!!! at Splitcoaststampers
I sponged on ruby red, pumpkin pie, more mustard, old olive and blue bayou, misted with water and then sprinkled on salt (should have used coarse salt) to get the salted background. Stamped the images on with stazon jet black, cut out with oval nestabilities. Distressed edges. Water coloured the fish, clear embossed. On the old olive back ground I stamped the pine cones from lovely as a tree in old olive, over stamped with sanded bg in choc chip. Added the photo corners and sentiment. Used metallic thread for the fishing line.

I don't care for this stamp set at all, but this card could change my mind! You did a fabulous job with it! LOVE the salted 'sky' and all the extra details you added to this card. GREAT job!

Well is this a beauty or what. I have so not decided on this set until I see a card like this. I really like the sanded backgrounder. I also think that your layout is wonderful. Great fishing line. TFS

Beautiful card. Love your colors and it just screams FALL. I love the way you used your set. I have this set and have not found a good way to use it, but now you've given me some wonderful ideas.
Thanks for sharing.
