So it's the day when Erika of Snappy Crafts blog invites us to link up with her, showing an old craft project which doesn't have to be a card.
Mine today is a card I made a couple of years ago using a Woodware fish stamp.
After stamping I did some tangling and shading and outlined the image with a promarker pen.
I added a little colour to the tail and outside of the card with distress ink and mounted onto an embossed background.
If you join in with Erika and leave a comment she'll visit you in return.
I recently bought the six new stamp sets by Leonie Pujol. My EZ mount arrived a couple of days ago so I'm off to mount up my rubber stamps. It's a job I hate almost as much as ironing.
But tomorrow I'm off to Coleman's warehouse demo day with a friend so I'm looking forward to that. I hope you enjoy your weekend whatever you have planned.

That's a great tangling fish you've made there, and a fabulous birthday card for the guys!
Thank you all for your lovely comments. I realise I should call it tangling but to enter it into the challenge it had to be something beginning with "Z" . Barb
A super oldie share Barb, your fish is fabulous.
Have a lovely weekend.

A gorgeous card Barb, love the fish.
Hello there, Barb! I'm finally back in blogland! Thank you for your kind words on my blog! Your card is awesome! I am always amazed at zentangling - I have never tried it! Your fish looks amazing! I don't enjoy mounting stamps either, especially cutting around the image. I'm always trying to cut close but I'm afraid that I'll nick the image itself. Hope you have a great weekend!
Fancy fish is right! This is really beautiful, Barb!
A fab design, Barb - love the tangling. Thanx for playing along at Cardz 4 Guyz.

Hi Barb,
playing catch up with my comments yet again.
My word this is so gorgeous, and such a work of art.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
I adore this tangled fish Barb and the bit of colour you have given it is just perfect with that soft embossed background. x
ooh great tangling - love it, that stamps lends itself to it so well too. I hate mounting stamps too!
Yep... I hate Ez Mount, too. It takes forever to get the residue off my scissors.
I'm sure Sarn loves this beauty of a tangle. x
I really like this fish Barb. I love your how you've zentangled it and it's just perfect in black and white :) X
