Create this cute fishing vest with the Gone Fishing Bundle by Stampin' Up! Video Tutorial by Laura Milligan, Id Rather Bee Stampin (3)

On a recent vacation to Traverse City, Michigan, some of our family took a fishing trip out onto Grand Traverse Bay. My niece Katie “won” the day by catching a 16 pound fish!!! True story!!! I thought it would be fun to send Katie a Congratulations card on her big catch and created this card for her! Since it was for my niece, I decided to go with a pink vest – complete with blingy buttons!! Why not!!?

I had so much fun creating this card and wanted to share it on my Facebook Live! Don’t think of the Gone Fishing Bundle as just for men – clearly there are women who love to fish as well!

Here’s the recording of the card on made on yesterday’s Facebook Live. You will be able to see the measurements for the cards as you watch along on the video recording.

It was fun to add some fish and bobbers and lures to the fishing vest pockets! The pocketed were created with the Nested Essentials dies. I loved that they had “stitching” around them – just like a real pocket would!

Measurements:
Card base – 8 ½” x 5 ½”, scored at 2 1/8” on each edge of the long side
Basic White: 4” x 5 ¼” inside panel
To create collar – make a small pencil mark at 1” and 1 ½” – refer to recording to see how to do this

Hope you enjoy this card!
