Fisherman from Rock the Farm


I made this card with the little fisherman from the Rock the Farm stamp set from The Greeting Farm. I am so proud of this card! When I started I just stamped this little guy and colored the image with my Copics. I normally plan the card out before I start, but not this time. After coloring him I picked out some colors that went well with him. I also used the CB to emboss the caramel layer to make it look a little like fish scales. After kicking ideas around my wonderful husband suggested a hook. He pulled out some craft wire he uses in his model car building and made me some hooks. He also gave me the idea to put the fibers around the top of the hook. I stuck a brad through and attached it to the ribbon that way because I didn't want to glue it. I love this little guy. Too bad I don't know any fishermen to send it to.

That embossing folder is perfect to use with this image, it really does remind me of fish scales. Love the greens!
