Congrats Mothermark on Queen for the day. Here is the card I chose.
I've seen a few cards like this before and I wanted to try one for a long time
WT283 It is button time!
F4A25 "Better Get Better!"
A dear loved one has been complaining and down in the dumps because he has had no time to go fishing all summer, I thought this would cheer him up.
The arms are made by using an oval punch and I just cut the v neck by hand. Small pockets are the tops of a tag die, upside down and the large pockets are just rectangles 1 1/2 inch x 1 /3/4 inch with corners cut off.
I'm going to my very first Stampin up party, woot woot. I'm back and I had a great time. I've ordered Stampin up stuff for over a year as a party of one, lol. This was a lot of fun, Thanks Sue aka coffeestamper for taking me.
I will catch up on comments tomorrow, goodnight
Thanks for looking

Fabulous fishing vest card -- although that worm is looking a little too happy! He must not know what's in store for him! Love all the details you've added.

Your fishing vest is awesome! Love the little worm peeking out of the pocket and the fishing line on your hook. Glad you had fun at the SU party... I know what you mean about being a "party of one" LOL.

Well, Irene, you certainly know all the things that a fisherman needs to make a catch, don't you? Love how you turned the vest into your card base and added all those goodies to keep the man happy while he's out there with those fishies!!
A real outdoorsy MAN card - you know how hard they can be - congratulations to our Mudder, for all these inspring ideas - the gallery isn't just for teapots anymore!!

Irene, you're knocking them out left and right this week. Another clever and brilliant creation. I'm in LOVE with your work on this. You didn't miss a trick on this one at all. The worms coming out of the pockets, the fish, bees and the other fishy thingy dingys!! Just wonderful Irene!! TFS!

OK, I am reallly inspired. I don't know how you make all these original and creative works of art so perfectly and so frequently, but I am fave-ing this one. I will study it until I figure this out!!! I love this and I know so many fishermen for whom this will be perfect. Great job, Irene.
