Friendship Smiles

Hi Everyone!
Time for a new challenge at Tuesday Throwdown!!
I am currently on a little blogging/crafting break for a few months, so this post is scheduled.  Hopefully it pops up correctly!

Our fun new challenge is Friendship!  I love making friend cards.  Never a lack of needing those!
Our awesome sponsor is MyGrafico and they have provided us with the cutest images to use!

This card was way too much fun to make!  I decided to try something a little different with my embossing paste..I added sand to it!!  I wanted the dino's to be walking on dirt but couldn't think of a good way to do it.  Browsing around my room I saw my containers of colored crafty sand from a previous project with my husband and the idea clicked!

I mixed a little bit of the embossing paste with a little bit of sand and then added a drop of brown ink to give it a little color.  Smeared that along my distressed sky and let it sit for a bit while I colored the dinos with my pencils.

Once the sand had dried a little, I pressed some glitter into it so that the sand sparkled, and stamped a few footprints.  So cool!!

To finish it all off, I printed off a sentiment onto vellum and clear heat embossed it.  And white embossed some stars in the sky.  Really love this card!!
