It's the last Tuesday of the month and that means it's Teapot Tickle time! You guys, I know that this gallery is going to be full of really cute little critters, but what do I collect? Fish. I love all fish, but most of all I love the largemouth bass. This is one of the first stamps I ever bought. I bought it even before I took up stamping. I just liked it so much. But I rarely use it. So I couldn't resist using it today. And, boy, am I going to be sad to see this card go. I had a lot fun making it. I started with smooshing DOX inks onto the blue paper and then stenciling some bubbles and spraying and splattering Mica Mist. Then I stamped the fish on some green paper and embossed. I sponged DOX ink onto the fish to color it. Then I added some white gel pen highlights. Finished with some torn black paper so it wouldn't blend into the background and my favorite "Keep It Reel" sentiment. And a bit of silver cord for a fishing line feel to it.

Aren't oxide inks great fun? What a terrific background with the feel of moving water from that boss bursting through the surface to snatch some dinner. Terrific card.

How fun to read your commentary, Jen! LOVE your card. My dh asked me before we married if I would ever say he couldn’t go fishing (largemouth Bass). It’s been +33 years and we honor each other’s passion every day. What a wonderful card.
