Best Fishes

  Have you been enjoying the new fishing and billiard images from DRS Designs? They are awesome images and make the cutest cards - perfect for masculine birthday cards and father's day cards.

My card today features the new Best Fishes greeting.

I paired the new greeting with the Big Mouth Bass image. I don't know why but I always think of Dr Suess when I see this image and colored him the way I thought he might look in a Dr Suess book. I started with some Water color CS, stamped the images with Versafine Black ink and heat embossed with some clear EP. After coloring the images I used some Elmer's Rubber Cement glue as a mask and sponged on the water using a couple of DO blue inks. I used a water brush to remove some of the color from the bubbles instead of coloring them and trying to add the rubber cement as a mask on them. I cut the panel down and added a die cut frame. Inside it says Happy Birthday but it could have said Happy Father's day. I think that would be cute too.

Thanks for stopping by today.
