This is for Anita’s Teapotters Challenge – Take a book. She wanted to know what we like to read. I am inspired by stories of how people get through difficult circumstances and overcome hardships, with their faith in God, prayer, the help of family & friends and their determination. I haven’t made a card in a few weeks; I felt like a beginner! I used a very old SU stamp set (1993) that has a wooden shelf and little stamps to put on the shelf, along with some sentiments (32 total). It was the only set I could think of with books. I colored the images with watercolor pencils which I haven’t used for a while and used an aqua painter pen. I layered on Brushed Gold (retired) and Merry Merlot, used Mulberry paper under that and put all on a Confetti White (retired) card base combining the old with the new. The sentiment is heat embossed in gold to go with the gold layer and ribbon. It went nicely the theme of the challenge. Scored some lines on the left side like the edge of a book. Glad to participate in a challenge today. TFL
