Retro Fishing Birthday

I made this birthday card for one of my brothers - he loves fishing and camping!  This retro digi image was a freebie from The Graphics Fairy, and the sentiment was a freebie from Rockin' Digis by Jackie Rockwell - thank you both!  Here are the other supplies I used:

  • Cardstock and DP:  Recollections
  • Circle Punch:  Marvy Uchida
  • Embossing Folder:  Cuttlebug - Script

  •  

    I would like to enter this card in the following challenges:

    Annabelle Stamps AC167 Polka Dots
    CAS-ual Fridays CFC109 Polka Dots
    Friends of Speedy TV #81 Summer Fun
    Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge Blog #136 - Use the Colour Black
    QKR Stampede #47 Let's Go Fishing
    Tammy's Scrapin' Corner Camping
    The Hobby House #2 Vintage (the image is from the 1940's)

     
     
    Thank you for looking at my card - I enjoy reading your comments.  Have a wonderful day!
