Seize the Birthday #315

Hello Fellow Crafters!  Seize the Birthday has just posted our latest Topping and it's a good one.  Shirley is our host and she's chosen Splish/Splash.  What makes this extra special is that she's offering us many freedoms of choice.  Pool, Ocean, Beverages, Messy Inking, etc.  I love it! 

I will admit to sneaking a peek into the DT gallery ahead of time to get a feel for the direction everyone took.  Always wanting to be a bit different, I chose a fishing theme that allowed me to combine two awesome die sets from two different companies.  

I haven't given my postcard die background enough love so that's where I started.  I did some light inking to give it a bit of depth, die cut the fishing gear in white and then colored them with Catherine Pooler dye inks.  After that it was just a matter of arranging them and stamping the sentiment.  I really love the versatility of her Topping!

Supplies:

Spellbinders - Fairways and Fish Tales die set

Cottage Cutz - Fishing Gear die set

Clearly Besotted - Sentimental Type stamp set

Waffle Flower Crafts - Postage Collage die and stencil

I invite you to visit our blog for a variety of splashy goodness and do hope you're inspired to play along!

Thanks so much for visiting!
