Here are  two more A2 size cards I made when my sister was up late last year, using the Best Catch Stamp Set and coordinating Catch of the Day Dies from Stampin' Up!.  Her grandson is an avid fisherman.

For this first card the top mat was cut from Crumb Cake CS.  The bottom mat was cut from So Saffron CS.

I stamped various shapes from the Catch of the Day Stamp Set onto the top mat using Crumb Cake Ink to create a background.  Then I stamped one each of the fish, hat, hook, and fishing basket using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on Whisper White CS.  They were all colored using the So Saffron and Crumb Cake Stampin' Blend sets.

The sentiment is from the same set and was stamped using Crumb Cake ink on Whisper White CS, and was layered onto a scalloped circle of  Soft Suede CS and was popped up with Dimensionals. Both pieces we cut using the Layering Circles Framelits Dies.

The fish was popped up onto an oval cut from So Saffron CS, which I layered onto a scalloped oval of Soft Suede CS, both of these pieces were cut using the Layering Oval Framelits Dies.

The hook and hat were attached to the top mat using Tape Runner, the basket was popped up with Dimensionals.

The finished top mat was attached to the bottom mat and then to a White Card Base using Tape Runner.

For this second card the fish and basket were stamped on Whisper White CS using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored using Night of Navy and Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends. The basket was cut out with the coordinating Catch of the Day dies.

The sentiment was stamped using Smoky Slate Ink on Whisper White CS and layered onto an scalloped circle cut from Smoky Slate CS.  The dies were from the Layering Circle Framelits set.

The bottom mat was cut from Smoky Slate CS.  The top mat was cut from a piece of the Twinkle Twinkle DSP.

The basket and sentiment were popped up with Dimensionals.  The fish was cut using the square Stitched Shape Framelits and was attached to the top mat using Tape Runner.

The finished top mat was attached to the bottom mat and then to a White Card Base using Tape Runner.

I finished the card using a few sequins, as shown.
