I made this card for a friend for her dad's birthday. He goes fishing much more with his son now that his wife died last year.
All of the stamps are Stampscapes except the gulls which are Coronado Island. The colors are blended with cosmetic sponges. You probably can't tell, but I attached a real fish hook (that I filed off the barbs) to the side on the twine & fibers. Highlights were added with a white gel pen.

Another beautiful stampscapes scene! Great coloring and I love the addition of a real fishing hook. I'm sure that will be appreciated by the 'fisherman'.
