The Love of my life is celebrating his 60th Birthday today and because I have to share him with his "other" love (Fishing), I decided to make him a special card! I came across this card & a Template in a great book by Paper Crafts called The best of Card Creations. I haven't even begun to use it for ideas but I did come across this one and had to make it.
You start with the pattern cut out of med. weight green cardstock and then I covered it with a fish camo paper on the back and fronts. I had blown this up so the end result was a card 6.5 x 6.5 roughly. I cut pockets and flaps out and then put stickers, stickles, some fishing line, fish charms, and some chipboard accents all over them. The inside opens to a sentiment I had from a challenge I entered. Since we both will reach this milestone this year, it only seemed appropriate! Thanks for looking and if you need the template, just contact me and I will try and send it to you via email. Happy Fishing! Carolyn Challenges:
Hello! I saw your card on the feature list at The Outlawz and had to come see how you made it! I would love it if you would try to send me the pattern. It is sweater32@aol.com. Many of the men in my family would love to receive this! My grandson's middle name is "Fisher" because his daddy loves to fish so much!! True story LOL
