Scrap My Scraps Challenge III Reveal: Jenn Embry

{This is a scheduled post while I am away from the computer enjoying time with my family – parents, sibs, nieces and nephews. Enjoy!}
We’re back again for our 5th reveal!
Here’s a reminder of the “guidelines”/deets:
Scrap My Scraps Round 3 Details:
You will receive an envelope with several images and sentiments stamped onto white cardstock and a list of printed guidelines.  You may use ANY papers and embellishments from any company, but you must use the images in the envelope.   Everyone will receive exactly the same images and sentiments.

Your mission is to create a piece of artwork using ALL of these guidelines:
1)  Use at least TWO of the images (MUST use the large image included)
2)  Use at least ONE sentiment.
3)  Incorporate stitching of some sort.
4)  Incorporate additional decorative fibers (non paper).
5)  Use 1-2 pieces of METAL.
6)  Make it POP.. use some dimensional adhesives (pop dots, tabs, foam tape, etc).
7)  Have FUUUUN!!!!

Today’s Scrap My Scraps reveal is Jenn Embry from Mission Ink Possible. I love the stitching and “ticket punched” corners on the main image.  Jenn even carried over an additional image and sentiment to the inside of the card.  She also used one of my favorite CTMH paper packs. LOVE IT!
From Jenn:
Card Details:
Images colored using Prismacolor pencils and gamsol technique. The sunglasses & bobber, and stuff hanging out of the fish's mouth are accented with liquid glass.  I tried using white glitter on his teeth to make them sparkly white...but I'm not really pleased with how that turned out. My daughter says he looks like he's wearing braces. LOL!  Stitching done with DMC embroidery floss.     Paper pack is CTMH Rustic Trail, along with Cocoa CS and Dutch Blue Textured CS for the card base. Card is 6x6.     I used Cocoa & Olive inks.  Inside sentiment is punched out using an SU punch.
