“Gus Fishing” Birthday Card





I just have to say Gus is one of my favorite Bugaboo stamps.  He is just so funny and perfect for men’s cards.  I tried to picture all the glossy accents I used but some did not show up.  I have it on all the beer bottles, the chip bag, bottle section of the tackle box, motor in the water, his glasses and the mid line on the boat.  I also doodled all the dots.  I tried to keep them even but you can see they did not all come out the way I wanted.   Better luck next time I guess.  

I used in this project:

Bugaboo – “Gus Fishing & Gus Fishing Sentiment” images
Glossy Accents
Glitter Gel Pen

I would like to enter my project in the following challenges:
