Welcome
I wanted a fishing theme for this card as it was destined for a keen fisherman.

The image was from... I went to look for this and found a lot of my files have corrupted and I am not sure, but think it came from Graphics Fairy, as she has a good selection of Retro images on her site.

The image was coloured with chalks/pastels, the edges distressed and sponged with Tea Dye DI.

The image panel was mounted over some T.H. Embossed Kraft card, and finished with a sentiment tag and fish charm, before being mounted on the blue base.
