Yesterday was World Card Making Day and I just had to make one creation in the wee hours of the day in its honor. I participated in the Inspiration challenge over at SC. It was the 200th challenge!!! Stef chose a wonderful site for us to be inspired by and I chose this scarf with Rasberry tones as my inspiration. http://shopkirdevries.com/alena-henn...rry-scarf.html
When I saw the scarf, I immediately thought of BG Indian Summer Paper so I went with it. Although I do not really enjoy making sympathy cards, I seem to have a lot to make lately. Atleast Our Daily Bread Designs has a new release with some very nice verses and sentiments which are perfect for when you don't know what to say. I used the sets With Heartfelt Sympathy and With Deepest Sympathy.
Stamps: Our Daily Bread Designs: With Heartfelt Sympathy, With Deepest Sympathy
Paper: Rose Red, Bazzill Bitter Chocolate, BG Indian Summer
Accessories: Labels 4 dies from Spellbinders, Ribbon Tags Trio Spellbinders, lace from Joann's, EK Moracco Lace Punch, Hero Arts Pearls
I can't wait to see what everyone else created yesterday for the day!! Have a great rest of your weekend.
