In My Prayers

Last week when we did the "Tasty" challenge at Operation Write Home Stars & Stamps Tammy guided me to the free digi's tab in the side bar of that blog.  That's where I found this adorable little boy saying his prayers.  The site is called Sliekje's Digi Stamps and you just aren't going to believe this... all of her digital images are FREE, she's quite an artist too!  

I thought he was so cute, he's colored with Copic markers, I decided he should have blond hair the first time I colored him.  He looks a little like my youngest son.  That's how his sweater ended up orange, Michael's favorite color is orange.   The "in my prayers" is a stamp from There She Goes and I used my wonderful friend Susan's Stampin Up! Top Note die to cut him out and for a shadow as well.  The patterned paper is Basic Grey Ambrosia.  I've had that paper pad for a couple of years now and it's finally starting to look used!   I made a total of 3 cards using him, they basically the same (Basic Grey Ambrosia paper) but his hair color changes each time.  Have a good day - happy stamping!
