This LO was for week 3 of the Decathlon. Our challenge was to use dye in our LO. I dyed the strips of paper on the top and bottom of the page using 4 different shades of Ranger Distressing inks...some were crumpled and inked, then sprayed. Some were soaked and then inked. Some were other combinations of the above! I sewed these pieces together scrappy-quilt style. I also used dyed paper as the photo mat and put some dyed paper through the printer for the quote box.


I used fishing swivels for the hinges and accents on the quote box.


Quote Reads:


Gone Fishin'
When I go fishing
I'm always wishing
Some fish will be my prize;
But while I'm fishing
The fish are wishing
Otherwise.
And all the wishes
of all the fishes
Seem always to come true;
So all my wishes
to catch some fishes
Never do.


When the picture is flipped up, it reveals four more pics of my dad fishing, a homemade coaster and journaling:
"For 21 years now, Dad has made his yearly treks to Canada, to his special fishing spot --Bear Lake. He looks forward to that trip more than anything else!
