Keep It "Reel"
Hello bloggers! I have a very clean and simple card to share with you today. I sometimes try to use the smallest dies to create cards just to show that they have value too! For today's card, I used the Fishing lures from the Fishing Essentials die set and the Keep it "reel" sentiment. I cut the sentiment in four different colours and glued them randomly across a piece of white card. Next, I cut the three different lures out of white card. I used a silver paint pen on all of the hook parts, then used various markers for the rest of the lures. I added them onto the card in the areas between the sentiments. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are ???? in size. All for now, Sue x

Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, wow what a great card using up lots of scraps of card to cut out all the words and fishing bait, very clever. You could make this card what ever size you like. thank you for sharing.

ReplyDeleteGood Morning Sue and all that visit today. Wow ,....... What a great idea. ..... Especially for Mums and wives looking for something different for their fishing Sons And Hubbys And a great way to use up those scraps. I love to do this. My Son loves his fishing and spends most of his little spare time doing just this. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone. Please stay safe and well 🙏.
