Happy Saturday evening to you.
I hope everyone is ok and your weekend is going well.
Tonight’s little card is another one made with the “Sandy Toes and Salty Kisses” new rubber stamp from Crafty Individuals.
I thought it would be fun to add little shoes/socks to this little character.
I stamped the beach hunts and then masked them off with some paper so that I could colour the background. The background was coloured using Distress inks and a foam pads in a similar way to a previous card here.
I coloured the beach huts with some water colour crayons.
To seal all of the inks I gave the piece a quick spray of fixative and then a coat of mod podge. I stamped the little boy image and added the lines for the socks/shoes, coloured it, cut it out and then attached the piece using foam pads.
The base of the focal piece is water colour paper/card. When I had finished it and added a coat of Mod Podge I did think maybe something similar could be used for a home decor project maybe for a child’s play room or nursery.

Thank you for looking
Take care,

Aw he’s just so cute Flo.
Lots of work has gone into the end result, and the end result is incredible. I agree, it would be a lovely framed art piece for a little boys room or playroom, or even some artwork for a seaside holiday home.
A work of heart Florence and I love it.

You did a great job with the shoes & socks – I had to look back at the first example to see what he looked like barefooted! Very sweet.
