Pea Pod Boats

Published by Shel9999 at 7:36 am under My Designs, Whipper Snapper

I have another sample today using Anna Wight’s Bundle of Joy by Whipper Snapper Designs.  I have so enjoyed this set!  (And now I am totally prepared should I *ever* need a baby card!)

Congratulations

PP2

My first intention was to use a red patterned paper here.  It had little dots of light blue, dark blue, green…really cute “little boy” paper.  But I couldn’t get it to work so instead I used the back sides of the two papers, this light blue and green, and I decided to make my own patterns.  The stars and boats were stamped with Celery ink, the white dots and sails colored in with a white gel pen.

The entire focal image is paper-pieced.  I stamped the the image onto the block of white, then onto the blue, green and vanilla (for the faces) paper.

I’m off to get my tea now before my face slams into my keyboard.  I stayed up late to watch the Celebrity Apprentice finale.  I was so disappointed with the outcome.  But what a great show that turned out to be!

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a fantastic Friday! :)
