Ready To Fish

I have had this layout laying around for quite a while and all I needed to do was add the journaling. I submitted this to Sketch Support as part of my Design Team application for the 2012 year.

I used a new fishing/camping collection from Paper Loft. The colours are my favourites and I love the rustic feel of the line. I used a combination of stickers and hand cut die-cuts from the papers to create my title. If found a set of SVG files from SVG Cuts that included the fishing hat and the trees.

There were some really awesome images that I could cut out from the paper that I used as embellishments too.

I added stitching to the die-cut trees and I used a check mark stamp to check off the list of fishing supplies.

I used my new favourite font to do my journaling and then cut it into strips. I also added some hand stitching over the fishing line to make it pop a bit more.

I remember this day well. I pulled the boys out of school in June and we headed off to visit my mom and dad at their trailer on Bellwood Lake. We hung out for the day and stayed for dinner. Can't wait for summer to arrive again.
