What a Catch

It's my nieces hubby's birthday and I'll be honest I don't usually worry but knowing his a fisherman I had to buy these digi images from KarenDoodles. I thought it was so funny and I knew he would find it funny too.
It take a bit of time cutting out and layering probably more to do with that it basically two cards. I used My Minds Eye and the wave border is the EK success dot and scroll punched layered.
I gave the card a 5mm spine this was necessary with the layered image inside the card.

Its rare for me to decorate the whole of the inside. I did wonder if it would fit a challenge and I found one, Totally Papercrafts are looking for Mens cards so this pretty much tick that box.
 Hope he received the card cos I know my niece is on FB and my post pops up on there.

Kathleen said...

Well what can I say about this that hasn't already been said, nothing, just that I agree with everything.
I will have to get these images even if it is only for my BIL, who fishes, for his 65th birthday card and the comment on the second image would be 'it's payback time'
Couldn't comment yesterday as both mail and blogger were playing up.
