Freshly Made Sketches #636

Cecile has a really fun Sketch #636 for us at Freshly Made Sketches!  I've had this idea in my brain for ages - it might work with her Sketch!  We'll soon find out!  I took Cecile's arrows and Kim's use of fish to bring it together!  I can almost hear my non-fish-loving friend Linda groaning!

Inside: Dad, you always had a fun way of keeping us IN LINE!


Yes, ANOTHER bit of fishing folly for Father's Day!  I wish my dad were still around - he might get a kick out of this one.

That 'reel' is actually one of the Hands of Time die set from PTI.  The arrows are AGES old from a Dynamics/MFT die set called Lead the Way!  Now.  If you look REALLY closely, you'll find a fly on the end of my line - cut from that sweet SU paper that my friend sent me - the square of 'ticking', too!  The trickiest part was actually loading the 'line' on my fly-reel!  

There, I can put that design to rest!  Thanks, Cecile!  and thanks to all of you, too - have a crafty weekend!

  12. Oh so clever for sure! This could be my favorite fishing card you have ever made - perhaps because there is not a fish in sight....lol....My dad was a fisherman and his fishing poles hang on the wall at our camp to this day....
