The sketch:
My creation:
I have had this card in my head for quite a while now and finally stamped it out! :) I love those cute little fish stamps from Endless Creations! And I thought all of the layers in the sketch were perfect for creating the water and sky!
I drew the wavy layers freehand and then distressed them to add interest. At first I had a black line drawn for the fishing line, but it just seemed too harsh. So, I decided to cover it with floss. I kind of like the texture that it adds, and it's definitely a lot softer than the solid black line.
What do you think?
Oh...and one last thing before I go...the hummingbirds have returned to the mountains! YAY! Maybe SPRING has finally arrived!
Thanks for stopping by!!! Have a wonderful day!

Ooo! Too cute! And you're right about the fishing line. Plus, it ties to the color of the little fishies perfectly :).
Aah! I wish we could get the hummingbirds to visit our neck of the woods. We've tried the color red, specific hummingbird favorite plants, and feeders. We miss seeing so many, when we lived in Colorado years ago :(.
Glad to hear you got something from your head to paper the way you like it, hardly happens for me! Great card, cool colors, love the orange against the blue. And that little hummingbird is amazing-the picture and the bird itself!
Love this creative card!! I like how you created the water! Great card all around!! Super cute Hummingbird!!! I love Spring in Colorado!
What a great sentiment! So sweet! Such a creative idea. I just love humming birds, especially when you can hear their wings going a mile a minute!
How adorable is this???!!! LOVE the fish and LOVE the sentiment! Very COOL card!
Fabulous job on the sketch! Such a creative idea!

So cute! Thanks for playing with us in the EBTKS Challange! :)
vuoi dire che la foto l'hai scattata tu... io adoro i colibri scusa se ti scrivo in italiano ma credo che tradurre con google, rende tutto più complicato per te... ;-)
Grazie per la tua comprensione....
