FRIDAY

Today's card is a fun, manly card for any occasion with a few tips on how to make it with some paper saving techniques.

When you cut out the green grass, cut it out of the middle of your Old Olive layer.  Your Old Olive layer gets covered up so you wont see the hole it creates, but you won't have to use another piece of Old Olive scrap.

When you cut your Stitched Rectangle Framelits lay the small one inside the larger one and cut both out at the same time.  This will give you the "frame" you need for the card.

Then when you cut out the small rectangle to be used for the message, cut it out of the inside piece you got when cutting the frame.  Once again this saves you using other scraps.

Supplies:

Very Vanilla, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, /soft Suede cardstock

Stamps: Best Catch (with thinlits), Crackle Paint Background, small stamp of your choice for message

Ink:  Soft Suede, Early Espresso for message

Dimensionals

Stampin' Blends, Wink of Stella

I used a a long retired punch to make the top of the cattails.

I love how the fish fins pop up in this set!
