Art Impressions Challenge - Fabulous Brads, Eyelets and Gems

For the current Art Impressions Blog challenge they are doing a cool product swap with  Eyelet Outlet.  I designed a fishing scene that I believe captures the sport. :o)


 I stamped the main image from the Catching Zs Set (Sku#4161) and masked him using both tape (larger areas) and liquid (very small ares). Next, I stamped the Creek (Sku#i1492) and Sm. Forest (Sku#E692) in the background.   For the trees way off in the distance, I used a paper towel to mask and stamped the top port of the forest set. Before removing the liquid mask, I dabbed a tissue over it to remove the ink and the pulled it off - to start it, I used an adhesive remover.


Next, I added color with Copic Markers.  I added grass from the WC Foliage Set (Sku#4051). I stamped a little pot from the WC Series 6 Set 2 (Sku#3498) for the fish to sit in.



I laid the Trout & Bass Brads on top of the little scene and thought about placement and where I needed to put the holes for the brads. I used a push pen to make the holes so I could see exactly where I was putting them. I added the sentiment from the Z's set. For final touches,  I used a glitter pen to add a little sparkle in the water, a glaze pen to highlight the little worms eyes, and a multiliner pen to create a slash from the fish jumping to get the worm.
