Someone noticed that I was I was amazed I didn't have a "Thankful" in my collection when I uploaded a couple of all-purpose Thanksgiving cards last November. And she sent the stamp and die set from IO (and the wonderful stencil, I love umbrellas). So this was a thank-you. When I saw the stencil I knew I wanted to use Tim's "Mary Poppins" - I know she's not, but so many people see her as that. I first stencilled in assorted DOX colours, and then I removed the stencil, inked it with one of the grey DOX inks and put it back in place, then ran through the Big Shot for added texture and to help transfer the grey ink. (Stencil Embossing Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers ). I added some grey card scored to create a sidewalk, and the Gate Keeper gates cut from black card. Pieced "Mary" together, and added a little lucky black cat to fill up the space. Ideally I guess it should have been a chalk drawing!!
Added the die-cut sentiment (silver glitter shadowed with black) and stamped the sentiment. Thank you!!
