Black and white VERTICAL stripes - check
Rainbow HORIZONTAL stripes - check

This card is going to Chip, the husband of fellow teapotter KHRH, aka Redbugdriver. Chip is a referee that has been sidelined by an official time out after two surgeries.
The referee is from an online NFL handbook. I printed it three times and popped it up with 42,000 dimensionals. The rainbow trout is a digital image from Designed2Delight. I printed the image as a watermark then copied and pasted them across the page.

OMGosh! HHRH, you have scored a touchdown w/ this one!!! Awesome way to get the official. I love this and I know that Chip will too. Thank you for thinking of him while he is in 'official time out'.

Ha ha! A dimensional for each fish! Giggle! Oh, this is good! Look at you, showcasing the new school and the old school on one card! Whoot! This will catch Chip's eye, betcha he even knows what signal that dude is throwing...me thinks it means, quit sinking the bobber!!
I love this...what a great background and the time out sentiment! Sheer perfection.....awesome Hilda girl!

You made the "score" with this fantastic card, Hilda!! It's pretty darn clever the way you have added the rainbow stripes! I love that it take 42,000 to hold up this ref! Chip will LOVE this card!!

Rainbow trout - how smart is that. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who combined both sorts of stripes - got to say your card is way more masculine ;-).
