Greetings MFT Friends and Fans!! So happy to be with you on another wonderful Teaser day!! Today it's all about the fabulous 'a la mode' sweeties!! There are two amazing sets being shown today. I am showing a set called "It's Getting Deep". I have a dear friend who, when times are tough, will use the expression "You have to dig deep" and for me it's about soul searching and finding the courage to deal with whatever may come your way.
Here is my tribute to my darling friend who is always there for me.
I started by inking my sweet ALM in Momento ink and coloring her skin and hair in with my Copics. I then paper pieced her outfit and shovel. I used silver embossing powder to coat the shovel to make it look a bit more realistic. I love how it shines once it's heated and melted! I couldn't quite figure out how I wanted to do the 'dirt' so I ran out to my kiddies sandbox and scooped up a teaspoon of very clean sand. I used my quickie glue pen to hold it in place temporarily and then secured the sand in place with a nice thick coating of Glossy Accents. It looks SO fun!!
I used my new MFT Oval STAX 1 & 2 to cut her out and matte her. I clipped a small piece of the dirt mound off when cutting her out so I simply tucked it back under like a puzzle piece and adhered it with a bit of Glossy Accents.
All papers are MME - Miss Caroline - Dilly Dally 6x6 pack. LOVE!!!
For the interior, I used the recently released Mix and Match Banners set, cutting one of each using the scraps that I had on my table. I stitched the outside edge and stamped my sentiment and outline image in SU! Cherry Cobbler ink.
I do hope you are enjoying these Teaser days as much as I am!! I will see you all again tomorrow for another amazing day of Teasers!!
Many Crafty Hugs!
(and thank you, again, for the amazing words of encouragement you have been leaving me every day!!)
