Footprints in the Sand

Hello again.... I absolutely love this Stamp from Our Daily Bread Designs - called Footprints. This is one of my favourite verses/sentiments... I made this card for two challenges - today's colour challenge - at Splitcoast Stampers #CC277 - Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay, Dusty Durango and neutrals of choice. Plus today's Mothermarks - Teapot Tuesday challenge MMTPT100 - "My oh My - it's Kahuna Kai". I didn't have any of those colours - so I used More Mustard, Taken with Teal, Really Rust and black as my neutral. I stamped the image twice onto Bristol Vellum using Stampin Up craft black ink and clear embossed images. I cut out the sand portion of one image and water coloured both using Stampin up Reinkers. Framed the card and sewed edges. I sewed only three sides of the popped up sand image. Tied string around the card. I am so very pleased with how this turned out. I will be sending this off to Elaine - a fellow stamper and teaparter - who has had some serious surgery.. She loves the beach but has never been to a beach... Some of the Teapotter ladies will be sending cards to Elaine - to help cheer her up.

Thanks for stopping by,
Happy stamping and creating...

Hugs... Pat

ODBD - Footprints in the Sand

I absolutely love this Stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs... "Footprints". I just bought this set from a garage sale being held at Crafty Capers. I stamped the image with Stampin Up Craft Black ink on water colour paper and clear embossed. Sponged on the sky using SU Soft Sky. Water coloured the ferns with Old Olive, the foot prints with River Rock and Close to Cocoa. Sponged River Rock and Close to Cocoa over the sand. Sponged edges of watercolour paper with Versafine Black ink. Mated image with a textured light brown and black. Sewed edges.
I just love how this turned out...

Thanks for stopping in..
