Flourishes Timeless Tuesday: Father's Day!

Good Morning Flourishes Friends!! This week our hostess Heather and she is challenging us to: Create a Father's Day Card or Project! 
 It's that time of year where we get to honor the men in our lives who put up with our crafting passion and hand over their wallets to pay for our craft supplies! And this is where we get to challenge ourselves to create a masculine card! 


My husband grew up fishing with his Dad in Montreal, so I decided to make a card that would remind him of those memories. They would catch Perch, Northern, and Small Mouth Bass. But Chris's favorite fish he was only able to catch twice was a Trout. So I decided this card was going to feature the beautiful colors of a Trout :)

 I used Flourishes "What A Catch" that I stamped out on Flourishes "Classic White Cardstock". I colored the fish image in with watercolors, then cut it out with my craft knife, and popped it up on popdots. The splashing water was colored in with the following Copic Collections:
