Fishing Rules

4/30/21 Spotlight Winner at A Perfect Time To Craft Open Challenge!

Hi everyone! I hope you’ve had a great week and will be doing something fun (and safe) this weekend! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you. I really appreciate your support! I’m happy to be back on the Eyelet Outlet blog today with another awesome DT inspiration project! I created a fun hybrid Father’s Day card featuring a slew of awesome brads and of course some washi tape!

I cut a standard A2 size side-folding card base from CutCardStock Curious Metallic Night cardstock. I cut a background panel from CutCardStock Sandcastle cardstock and covered it with Sky Washi Tape-Wide and Water Washi Tape, then printed the Fishing Rules digital image on CutCardStock Brown Bag Kraft cardstock, fussy cut it and adhered it to the background panel. I hand-drew the sign post with a black Pigma Micron pen, as the post was not included with the digital image. I tore a scrap of brown bag kraft cardstock to create a sand dune, and added Fishing Lure Brads, a Fishing Pole Brad, Trout and Bass Brads, a Wine Brad (don’t laugh – I didn’t have the beer brads yet and the wine bottle looked like it could pass for a beer bottle, lol, but I have linked to the beer brads!), a Seagull Brad and Shell Brads to create my little beach scene.

I cut the inside panel from CutCardStock Sandcastle cardstock and embellished it with a strip of CutCardStock Brown Bag Kraft cardstock, a narrow strip of the sandcastle cardstock for a tone-on-tone effect, and a narrow strip of CutCardStock Curious Metallic Night cardstock. I stamped the sentiment in black ink on a scrap of the sandcastle cardstock, cut it with a stitched rectangle die and layered it on a slightly larger black cardstock die cut, and then layered the panel on the twine cardstock.

And one more look… I chuckled the entire time I was creating this! Absolutely love how it turned out! ;)
