BBTB2 A Child's Year Fishing Boy

Happy Monday!  It's a new week and a new challenge at BBTB2.  Design Team member extraordinaire Miss Shelly picked our challenge this week and asked us to use the Fishing Boy from A Child's Year cartridge.  I had some fishing pictures that I wanted to scrap of my grandkids that I just came across the other day.  So I put them aside just for this challenge.  The funny part is, I finished my LO and went to get the pics and couldn't find them.  So much for keeping them in a safe place until I need them.  I guess I should write down where that safe place is so I don't forget.  I know there here somewhere!!!  I used a few cuts from the Camp Out cartridge to make this little scene.  The cabin is cut at 4", the trees at 4", the frames for my photos at 5" and the water for the fishing hole at 2".  The cuts I used from the Child's Year cartridge are the grass (cut at 2"), the fish (cut at 1") and the boys are cut at 4".  I used the flip function key to get the boys facing in the opposite direction.  My title was cut from the Old West cartridge at 2".  I used this title because that is what my grandson was screaming when he caught the fish. Now I do have to tell you that the fish I cut at 1" isn't much smaller than the fish my grandson caught.  It looked more like a minnow, but he was excited.   I'm excited to see what kind of design's our players can come up with for this cut.  If I hadn't had those fishing pictures I'm not sure what I would have come up with.  It would have been a real "challenge".
