Hi, thanks for stopping by! Today I have a card to share with you that I made for my Father-in-law's birthday. Yes, he loves fishing! I used this fantastic cat fishing image from
MelJen's and coloured it with prisma pencil crayons and markers. The DP is from K&Company and the ribbon is from Multicraft Imports. I wanted to try something different with the ribbon so I used my glue gun and made a line of hot glue and rippled the ribbon along it. Then the top corner was empty so I added a couple fun tabs with the same ribbon. The wonderful wooden fish I found at the recycling center free store and I attatched it with a great screw brad from Forever In Time. All the ribbon was inked just a bit around the edges with Tim Holtz distress ink in Sage.
For this card, I'm entering it in a brand new challenge blog called
Just Keep on Creating!
It looks like a wonderful new place to share your crafting creations! This is for their very first challenge so why not pop over and see what it's all about! (Just click on the image above). Thanks

YAY! A Meljen's cutie and look at that gorgeous ruffled ribbon. That hot glue did the trick didn't it. :-) That little wooden fish couldn't have worked out better for an embellie. Great eye for snaggin' that one Jennifer. :-) Hugs!
