Here Fishy, Fishy…A Father’s Day Card

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s June 2025 release of ten new dies and five new clear stamps. For this bobbing fishing lure Father’s Day card I used several of the new sets including: Fishing Lure Charms, Whirly Wheel and Curved Edges.


Watch the process video to see how I made this card.

Cardbase: An 5.5×8.5-inch sheet of light weight white cardstock was scored and folded into a side-fold 4.5×5.5 size card. Watch the video above to see how I cut the half circle into the card.

Rippled Background Panel: Uses a 4.25×5.5-inch lightweight cardstock panel. (Could be cut down to 3.75×5-inches.) Cut seven 2-inch wide strips of patterned paper with the cloud die from the Curved Edges die set. Ink the edges with brown ink. Glue on as instructed in video above.

Bobbing Fishing Lure: Cut one large fish lure and one tiny circle eye piece from white cardstock using the Fishing Lure Charms die set. Cut two double hooks from silver. Color and assemble fishing as shown on packaging.

Whirly Wheel: Cut one wheel and one large thermometer from sturdy green cardstock using the Whirly Wheel die set. Using stencil feature, ink on arrows on wheel. Assemble wheel as shown in video above.

Sentiments: All the sentiments were stamped using Karen Burniston’s Fishing stamp set with dark brown ink.

Envelope: The card fits into an A2 (4.25x 5.5-inches) size envelope with a die-cut fishing lure from the Fishing Lure Charms glued to the back flap.
