I think I got all the colors for the color challenge..no dessert today as this is also for the Tea Party. It is going to Faith's husband who will be having surgery soon. He likes to fish and do woodworking. I was able to find a scrap of wood like paper which I used for the sentiment and I guess the toothpick fishing pole is also wood...lol. I hope to get this in the mail this afternoon..it's frigid out today but tomorrow's suppose to be even colder...so the lesser of two evils..TFL!

What a wonderful card, Polly! I love that image and the greeting is perfect. I might be tempted to use it for my DH...but then he'd get a swelled head & wouldn't make thru the door.

"Red fish...Blue fish".....Dr. Seuss. Wonderful hand-colored vintage image, Polly. I like the effect you got by border punching a DP....creates a neat effect on your terrific card. Love the sentiment too.

That little blue scrap fish is just perfect! I have some gold ones and was trying to figure out how to use one, but gave up due to time pressures. The zigzag die is a fantastic combination with the patterned and die-cut DP! And your scrap of wood paper is great - I thought you'd stamped it.
