Hi Everyone,
I'm showing off another fun card made with my DRS Designs stamps. I just love this little guy with his prize catch...He looks so proud! The stamp is very apporpriately named Proud Catch Fisherman and I thought I would pair it with the sentiment Happy Retirement. What better time to pursue those favorite hobbies but when you have all the time in the world, right?
DRS Designs has all kinds of great background stamps too, so you never have to scramble for patterned paper, you can always make your own, just like I did here. I used the Interlocking Circles because I thought they kinda looked like bubbles in the water.
I gave the fish a googly eye and added some twine and buttons. Those are my go to embellishments for guy cards ;)
Have you been playing along with the Stamp A Day Give Away at the DRS Designs blog this month? You only have until the end of June, so drop by the blog today and check out my card featured over there. Oh, and have you seen their new releases for summer? You can check them out right here...So cute!
Have a great day!

Love the googly eye Karin, brilliant card.
That background paper does look like bubbles and I love your image, great coloring! Cute little buttons too, nice embellishment but not too girly.
