For today's TPT challenge - I haven't just made it to the teaparty this week but it's still even Tuesday!! October was a mad month here ;-(.
While I was wondering this morning what stamps I could use, I was planning to use Snoopy fishing on the dock - but then I thought I hardly ever use this set. It's a bit too cute to be really suitable for a manly card, but there are no frills, so I hope it counts. I may get another more suitable card made tomorrow, we'll see...Charlene, maybe you could let me know what you think?
A2 base, watercolour paper.
Stampendous Birch Buddies, lots of masking, colouring with distress inks. Edges sponged and distressed.
Liquid Pearls on the toadstool.
Sentiment from ODBD

Hey there Sabrina! Oh! Oh! I do love this card! It is precious...and as much as I would have loved to see snoopy fishing on a dock...this card is just as lovely....a wonderful little outdoorsey scene for Bob. I think you did good.....it's all about Bob's love for the outdoors and you pretty much aced that!

Oh Sabrina - this is fabulous! It's not too cute or unmanly! I love it and so will my dad! What a cool scene with the birch trees! Thank you so much for making this for him and just a side note, as I'm not sure if you would remember that my dad is actually from Belfast, NI. He moved to Canada when he was about 15 but still has relatives there. He will love your card and think it's very cool to see the Belfast postmark! Going into my favs!
