Today's Colors: Dapper Denim, Tangerine Tango, Sahara Sand. Dessert: Soft Suede.
Teapot Challenge: Let's Frame It. I used the Double Matted Frames Tutorial.
I need to replenish my sympathy stash and fell in love with these colors and the teapot challenge. I started by making the frame and using the IBBG stamp on the bottom to represent sand. The sand panel was sponged on all edges and circle. I cut the WC paper using the larger circle, then stamped my images on it and water colored using blender pens and ink pads. I used the aqua painter for the water. Sponged the sand and suede on the sentiment circle then added a twine bow with a sticky dot and popped up on fun foam. Thanks for stopping in! ~Roberta
*I will send a card from my stash to Lillian~

What a fabulous praying for you/sympathy card this is Roberta. I just adore cards like this that have what I call a "quiet beauty" to them - they just speak to the heart somehow. Your coloring, shading and framing are simply flawless my friend. What a great card this is for both challenges. Hugs! ~Karen.
