SC198 Footprints in the Sand


Happy Day!!!

WOW - I didn't think I could get creative on the SC198 Challenge - I have tried this Sketch on 2 different cards - which they end up in the trash can - until I've tried this card. Maybe flipping the Sketch helped a bit....

I used the gorgeous *Footprint in the Sand* Set from *Our Daily Bread Designs*.

Once again - I've tried to keep my design very simple and focus mainly on this beautiful image. I love this Set so much - to me it speak volume - I know that my Savior is walking with me every day and for some reason every time I see this Set - I have this warm feeling coming over me...knowing he is right beside me!!! I know you all probably think I'm silly, but I can't help how I feel!!!

Anyway - I have used only two colors on this card - Kiwi Kiss and Whisper White. Hope you like it??? I didn't have a chance to stamp the inside of the card - which I will, but I really need to be going......

If you like - come back later and I'll have a *SURPRISE* waiting!!!

Silke, I knew you could turn this sketch into a beautiful card!! I love the monochromatic look. You chose a wonderful stamp set to work with.

And no, I don't think you are silly at all. I feel the same way. Isn't it wonderful to have the peace that HE is besides us always?
