Fishing!

Today's card features a Penny Black stamp called 'Fishing!'. I stamped it on to watercolour paper, added a sentiment using stamps from the 'Birthday Buddies' set by Paper Smooches, then coloured the image using watercolour pencils. For the background, I used snippets of papers from the 'Prince Charming' pad by Michaels (found at TKMaxx), distressing the edges and adding faux stitching my CutterBee Bug and a black gel pen, then matting them on to some kraft card. I added the image on top, then placed it all on to a white card blank.
