This is my card for todayÂ’s Teapot Tuesday challenge. This card is for 10YO Colton who lives in West Virginia.
WouldnÂ’t you know it? Of all the stamp sets and single stamps in my collection, I did not have a suitable fishing image and not one strawberry! :-0
I found both images out on the internet. I colored the main image with pencils but I printed the strawberry in color and cut it out. Instead of brads, I decided to punch holes in the black layer with my crop-a-dile and then put some Crystal Effects in the holes.

Well, look at you Jillobyn! Coming to the teaparty with the perfect card for the challenge with nary a suitable stamp in your collection! You improvised well! Tee hee! I love that big ole snarley tree root! It takes all kinds of sittin' places to make a good fishin' hole! The background you chose is perfect for a rustic fishing hole! You did good!
