For the MMTPT challenge, Sabrina gave us these inspiring thoughts:
"The last two years were certainly challenging for everybody, but quite aside from that in our own daily lives we all have challenges that we face, whether big or small. And we overcome them by taking each day one day at a time, one step at a time, putting our best foot forward."
I immediately thought of this stamp which I have always loved. The challenged involved steps or shoes so I wanted it to be special and lovingly worn shoes. I found this lovely tutorial - the music is so soothing:
My shoes are no anywhere as pretty as the the shoes Maria did, but I still love them.
I have many friends and loved ones who suffer from anxiety, PTSD, or various forms of depression or extreme pain. Even one step is hard some days. Theirs is the journey of a thousand miles.

Double - no TRIPLE WOW my friend!! This is a fabulous painting!! The wear and shadowy smudges really embody that long, long journey from the first step to where any of us are currently.

Nancy these are stunning ballet slippers, they look like mine I had when I was 15. Mine were the same color. Congratulations for being a CAS favorite and one of the 2022 favorites. Super fabulous.
