First off, this is just one of my MMTPT cardsÂ…
Today is all the about the Beatles. Go here for the real story......continuing on with mine....While on my walk, down by the lake, much to my surprise I came across this fellow out fishing. Well to me he looked just like Ringo Star! So I hid in the bushes and quickly snapped this photo. Now I am sharing it with you. Apparently this is one of RingoÂ’s or Ralph as he is calling himself these days, secret fishing spots. Must be a good one because he seems to be catching fish or at least attracting them to his boots. hehe
Today is also the RELEASE DAY for the new Rubbernecker Stamps , Old People and Sentiments. Ralph here, or Ringo as I call him, could be yours. Check out the Rubbernecker Stamps site!.......card detailsÂ….
The other day the sky was just full of fluffy clouds. This is a rarity in Sacramento. So I took some photos with my phone and e-mailed them to myself. The bg here is one of those photos.
I stamped Ralph on w/c paper and colored with w/c paints. Cut him out and put him on the cloud bg. Added the MS punched grass on the bottom that I sponged and some MS ferns on the side to give this scene some depth. Layered this with tropical AC cs then onto a black AC card.
Well hope you like Ringo I mean Ralph. Have a great day. DonÂ’t forget to check out all the new Old People images at Rubbernecker StampsÂ…Â…oh, and come back later and see what Curt is up to today....heheÂ…..TFL :0)

Oh my gosh! This is my husband. Just kidding but I have seen that expression when the fish don't bite. You have taken a great image and made it even better.

Did you get the GPS coordinates for that secret fishing spot? Won't Ringo/Ralph be surprised when 42,000 teapotters show up to drop a line! Awesome card Cathy! Love the bright blue sky, the cool, clear water and lush greenery surrounding this fun Old People image.
