Tuesday, January 11, 2011




Good Tuesday evening - on the news tonight they said that Florida was the only state without snow - even Hawaii had snow in some mountains. It snowed lightly all last night and today - so the sidewalks and driveway need to be cleared - I did clear the sidewalks when I got home and now I am watching UW Madison basketball game - go Badgers. After the game I will head outdoors and finish up my driveway. The joy of living in a snow state.

The card I am sharing tonight is for my son in law Chris - he has a long battle with cancer before him so I wanted to add a smile to his day. Chris likes to fish and he has a wonderful sense of humor so I know he will appreciate the little pun also. The fish is a digi from I Brake for Digis - I just printed it on my base paper - I just lined three of them up and then I printed them on a contrast color and cut them out. I really like the way it turned out. I added some Stickles to the bubbles. I based the card design on the weekly sketch from The Sweet Stop.

You need to come back tomorrow night and see "A Birthday Fish" - the versatility of digis - the different sizes you can make them.

Everyone have a wonderful evening.

I just love your fish card.The papers look like you distress them which I think looks awesome with the image and the papers you have used!

I love your fish card. It's sure to bring a smile to your son-in-law. I'll keep him in my prayers as he battles cancer.

I saw your cards on the OWH blog today and they're terrific.

We don't have any snow here in Florida, but it is cold for us. It's supposed to be in the 30's tonight. Not Florida weather.
