RIVER MONSTERS ~ Fish on! |
A prize will be awarded to one participant whose TV-themed creation tickles the Bacon Bits’ fancy in a hammin’ jammin’ way! Another prize will be awarded randomly to a hopper who comments on all the blogs along the way. The winners will be announced on the Hoedown blog, as well as on the Hambo company blog, Talk to the Ham, on Wednesday, May 23.
Can you guess my TV-themed creation?!? It's RIVER MONSTERS!! My kids LOVE that show! Well, they pretty much love anything on Animal Planet and to tell you the truth, I don't mind watching Jeremy Wade. I really dig his accent and admire any man who can handle a 100lb fish with his bare hands. For my card, I used Fisherman. I paper pieced his boat, hat and fish. The rest is colored with Prisma Color pencils. I used some monofilament from which to hang the fish. It extends all the way down the pole. I'm afraid it is so thin that you probably can't see it, but it does make for a nice effect on the card in person... and shh, don't tell my husband I plundered his tackle box! Father's Day is coming up, and this image is perfect for the occasion.
If you get lost along the way, here is the entire list of hoppers.

Well, I"m now thinking that a Hambo monster needs to be at the end of that line! haha...glad it's not...for the sake of the fisherman!!
Well, a show that's new to me! I will have to check it out, especially if it has a host that's a dish. Great coloring and I love the papers that you chose. Wonderful masculine card!

I can't believe that for all the channel surfing I do, I've never watched that show -- not even a few minutes of it. I'll have to make it a point now, because your description of Jeremy has piqued my interest! LOL What an awesome card -- the popped up fish looks great, as does the paper-piecing!
Love this masculine card! Never saw the show, but that won't be true for long. Jeremy, huh??!
What a great card, your coloring and paper piecing are fabulous!

Hi Beverly! I wonder if the Nielsen Ratings folks will notice a big jump in adult female viewers of "River Monsters", lol lol! Your card is so very cute; I love each detail and don't know which one to single out! Great!
I am not familiar with the show (no kiddies), but this card is awesome. Such a great image. Love how you made the river and the use of the paper is great.
