IODT Thursday - Fall Fishing

It's my turn to host Impression Obsession's DT Thursday - if you came over from the IO blog, thanks for popping over to see me! It's FALL, and I'm so happy to be living in a place with four seasons... when we lived overseas I really missed the beauty of the fall season.

I have quite a few fishing themed stamps in my latest stamp release, and I wanted to share this set, which has a fun layering background. I love the older books that are printed with just 3 ink colors, and this yellow-orange-brown combo feels very familiar. My scene is done with Distress inks.

Here's the stamp set I used:

Serene Scene

The backgrounds are ATC size, and can layer together or be used separately to reflect any season you wish! The silhouettes are perfect for scenes, too. The fisherman there is based on this photo of my grandfather. Fishing was one of his great loves.

Here's another photo of him, just for fun - and that baby is my mom! :)

Here's a closer look at the focal panel of my card - I used my Zig markers to add a little palette blended shading to the foreground. The background was embossed and then sanded lightly to reveal the core of the paper.

Thank you for visiting today  - and happy fall!!
