Hi everyone. I am back today with a second page for Try It On Tuesday's latest challenge. There's still another week to share your masculine art with us for the It's A Man's World challenge.
My page today is for the guys who love to go fishing, or angling as it is called in some places.
Of course there are ladies who like to fish also, but sorry if you are one of them, today's page is for the men.
The design team hopes to see you over at our challenge at Try It On Tuesday.
I made my background with a Fred Mullet fish stamp and some blue spray ink. The man with his giant fish is one of my favorite stamps. My dad loved to fish, and he had this sign that said "All fishermen are liars, except you and me. And sometimes I am not so sure about you." This stamp reminds me of that sign because some fishermen are known to exaggerate the sizes of their catches.
And I am also going to link my page to Halle's challenge at Art Journal Journey This month we're being asked to create pages with Words to Live By.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Wonderful page, love the blue 'water' background. Have a great day, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteLove all the different fish you added to the page. Perfect! I do enjoy fishing although its been a lot of years. I grew up fishing but hubby prefers indoor hobbies so I do often get the chance.
ReplyDeleteThanks for another great addition to Words to love by!
A super page Erika! xx
ReplyDeletePhew! I had to come back to your blog because it wasn't allowing me to comment :-(
ReplyDeleteGreat page with great ideas behind it. My Dad was a fisherman when he was younger and I know people who fish as much as they possibly can, so very masculine, even if women like fishing, too :-) In fact, I used to fish with Dad and brothers when younger and had my own rod - can't imagine anything more boring now...I need to be reading if I'm not doing.
Lovely blues and fab words :-)

I love this page! The spattered blues goes great with the fish swimming all around. The man with the huge fish made me laugh. I am not a fishing person, I just like to eat them
ReplyDeleteAMAZING is this page , thank your for joining Art Journal Journey again with this super page, happy Tiot.Heatwave here and I am avoiding the pc.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful page Erika, the blues in the background look super and so do those fantastic fish stamps. It is a good quote and I also think fishermen anywhere in the world are inclined to say the fish they caught or the ones that got away looked much larger.

Such a fabulous page! The fishing theme is perfect and the stamp is such fun, catching a fish as big as me would make me smile, well as you know I'm not that tall I guess this fish may even be bigger than me ...lol 😉. A great addition to our It's a man's world challenge. Enjoy your week! Jo x
ReplyDeleteI love both the wonderful blues and texture in the background and great images! If my dad was still alive I would want to get this for him!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful blue for the water, an amazing background! I love your fishes, the jumping ones especially, and the fisherman with his BIG fish! The quote is perfect!
ReplyDeleteWish you a happy day! Hugs-Rike
Love your background! And yes, that is a great stamp of the fisherman and what fabulous words you tell us about with memories of your dad.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Neet xx
