I think I'm in a tiny minority of one who doesn't get the cheater email for Teapot Tuesday. But as I'm in a time crunch these days I took a wild gamble when Cindy said she was going back to fishing when she passed on the card drive request from Charlene, and pulled out my MFT Fred Bear goes Fishing when I did have a little spare time.
I especially got this set because I knew I'd need it some Tuesday!! I also used the current MFT sketch.
Mind you, I think a true-blue fisherman would probably prefer NOT to have sunshine, but hey, Fred caught the fish!
7x5" base to fit Fred and work the sketch.
Orange paper is Basic Grey (Sugar Rush, I think) and blue pattern is Sizzix Little Sizzles. This layer is stitched with blue thread.
Fred was stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with distress inks (vintage photo, walnut stain, tea dye, stormy sky, tumbled glass, peeled paint, forest moss) and layered on blue. I used H2Os for the fish so he has a little sparkle IRL. I added some Making Memories snaps and and MFT sun, along with a Hero Arts sentiment.

Your card is adorable. I love your layout and that cute image that you have colored so beautifully. That sun looks good, I would love to have had some sunshine today.
