This week's destination for our Teapot Tuesday cards is Brampton, Ontario. Our cards are going to Kim, cousin of Split Coast Stamper and Teapotter Virgo05. Kim is chairman of the Ford Local 584. His favorite foods are steak and crab legs. Thus the '57 T-Bird and the crabs at Joe's Steak House. I got the '57 T-Bird stamp some time ago, because that is my DH's all time favorite car. The crabs at Joe's was my DH's idea, based on an old, old ad that went somthing like "I got crabs at Joe's Bait Shop."
Cut out Tim Holtz's Rickety Shack die, then drew all the details with a Copic multiliner pen, and colored with Copics and silver gel pen. Colored with Copics and silver gel pen the T-Bird and cut out. Stamped the palm trees, ferns, grass and pebbles, then colored the ocean and stamped a bit of Craft White on it. Also colored the sand and driveway with Copics. Sponged the sky. Made the 2 signs - hand lettered - colored With Copics. Stamped Woodstock, colored with Copics and cut out. Colored with Copics behind where the windows in the shack will go and stamped and colored the crabs. Glued on the signs, shack, T-Bird and Woodstock.
