Fishin' Birthday - Stampin' Up! Gone Fishing

   Happy Testosterone Tuesday!  I've got a clean and simple masculine card to share today and while I know for sure women go fishing too I'm sticking with the theme and considering this one a guy birthday card.  The theme prompt is from Addicted to CAS so thanks to them for helping me add to my paltry guy card selection.

 I started this one with a Basic White thick card base.  Then using the long wave die from the Ocean Friends die set I cut 2 layers from the Let's Go Fishing DSP which sadly is retired but I'm hoarding for all the anglers in my family! I popped the bottom layer of DSP on dimensionals so the card isn't really as flat as it looks in the photo.

  Next I stamped the bobber and die cut it and then punched a tiny hole in the top and tied a length of linen thread through it.  I tucked the bobber under the edge of the popped up DSP and then looped the linen thread up the card front using a bit of glue where it's looped to secure it.  

  I left the thread long to the inside of the card and added a stamped and die cut fish to the other end.  I tried to get a picture but I just couldn't get it to come out well enough to share but it's there!

  The sentiment from Saying Hey is stamped in Misty Moonlight above the water.

  Thanks for looking! Did you stamp today?
