Father's Day Card by Sara Cook

Hi everyone.  I have a Father's Day card featuring the Freshwater Fish 3D Embossing Folder and Cutting dies.  Does anyone else have a collection of alcohol ink backgrounds that need using?  I did so I turned them into fish.  If not perfect project to practice some background. Check out the instructions below.

Fish:

Look into your stash for 2 alcohol ink backgrounds that are at least A2 size.  The exact color doesn't matter.  Die cut a lighter one from the largest fish die from Freshwater Fish 3D Embossing Folder and Cutting dies and then emboss using matching folder.   I added color using Distress Crayons Pocus Pocus, Bubbling Cauldron, and brushed Pewter.  Rub with your finger. Use a black gel pen on the eye.

Background:

Die cut the Jumbled Line Collage die from another, darker, alcohol background.  Save all the die cut pieces and adhere to a black panel 4"x5 1/4". 

Sentiment:

Die cut DAD using the Wooden Alpha die set from White Woodgrain Paper.  Rub on Distress Brushed Pewter all over the letters.

Assembly:

Cut White Woodgrain Paper to A2 size.  Adhere the background and then the DAD to the bottom of the fish.  Adhere to a white A2 card base.
