Tag for a fisherman

 Hi there, today I’m sharing a tag I made using Waterside Retreat from SU.

There are some lovely papers you will be seeing more of,

from which I cut some fish, oars, floats and life jackets (or vests.)

I used the blue card behind just to show it off better, so I hope that doesn’t confuse you.

I didn’t have anything else suitable to hand for a contrasting background to photograph the tag.

The fishing net is a Gummiapan die I’ve had a while.

I used some old SU woodgrain paper for the background.

Some of the fish were cut from the edges of the paper, and were not quite whole,

so I tucked them under the other pieces. I do like to use every bit of the papers.

I stamped the text onto some old paper and cut them out.

SU are now selling their Paper Pumpkin kits worldwide,

which lots of us have been waiting for for years!

These are similar to other SU kits, in that there is usually a stamp set included.

However the PP kits have extras like coordinating dies.

There is a whole suite, including a stamp and die set Relaxing Waterside,

which I didn’t get, but I have found some old sets that gave me similar elements 

that I can use for future projects.

I can’t wait to share more, they are great for, but are certainly not limited to, masculine cards.

Tag-along and ATC’s  June Challenge asks us to add some text, which I’ve done, 

but there’s always an anything goes option.

 Thanks for taking the time to visit, and I really appreciate your comments

Take care and see you soon

Lesley
