Hello Crafters! Thank you for joining me today. Perhaps you would like to see a Father’s Day card I made using the Gone Fishing bundle.
A Challenge:
The Card:
As seen in the picture above, I turned the sketch from the portrait to the landscape position. As I have been told, “A sketch is a suggestion, not a commandment!” And, with Father’s Day coming up, maybe you want inspiration to make a card for the occasion. I used two stamp sets to make this card: Beside Me and Gone Fishing. Let’s look at some of the specifics.
Details of the Father’s Day Fishing Card:
The Measurements:
- Card Base – Misty Moonlight cardstock (CS) – 8.5″ x 5.5″, scored and folded at 4.25″
- Layer 1 – Misty Moonlight CS – 5.5″ x 4.25″, embossed with the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder.
- Layer 2 – Very Vanilla CS – 5 1/8″ x 3′
- Layer 3 – Let’s Go Fishing DSP – (2) 0.5″ x 4″, cut a slant on each end, as shown.
- Layer 4 – Misty Moonlight CS – 2-5/16″ x 1-1/16″

- Layer 6 – Very Vanilla CS – 2.5″ x 1.5″, stamped and die-cut with Gone Fishing die.
- Inside Layer – Very Vanilla CS – 5.25″ x 4″
