I made this card for my Mom who told me yesterday she had decided to start painting again. She hasn't painted for several years but has been thinking about it for quite some time. She has joined a group at our local COA and already made her way to the craft store to buy all her supplies for the first session on Monday. I bought her a canvas and will give her this card to show my support. I chose the Shell Tone palette as my inspiration. We live close to the shore and my Mom loves the beach.
I created my color swatches by using white felt scraps I had laying around. Cut small rectangles and using markers I colored them and then smushed them on the card stock and pulled them off to the side. TFL!

This is not only clever but what a perfect card for the occasion! Thanks for the idea of felt scraps to stamp with. I love the effect you achieved! Best of luck to your mom too!
