Got any fishermen in your life? This would make a great masculine birthday or Father's day card. If the man in your life isn't into fishing, be sure to check out his friends, like the Hockey Beaver and the Basketball Beaver. They'd make great masculine cards too! I like that these images are versatile--cute enough for us girls to color and create cards with, yet masculine enough for men and boys to receive them too!
This Fishing Beaver image was fun and easy to color! I colored him with Prismacolor Pencils and blended the colors with Gamsol. I also used a stipple brush and creamy brown ink to shade in the background around the image. The little bit of red you see peeking out of the corners are actually photo corners tucked under the mat.
I added Diamond Glaze to his tackle box to give it that metal look. I love making things on my cards look realistic!
Hope you've enjoyed this one as much as I have!
