I made this card today for the color challenge to use Basic Gray, Crushed Curry and Bravo Burgundy.
I also used the sketch over at Cristian Paper Crafts Blog!
I have to tell you, I have been shying away from Crushed Curry. It's just not one of my favorites! I cuttlebugged it and sponged it so that helped it appeal to me a little better!!! I also used two sets that were released yesterday from Our Daily Bread designs called Sing for Joy and You Will Find Refuge. Notice how the sentiment fits nicely inside the Spellbinders oval!!!
The background music is the
Amazing Grace Hymn stamp from ODBd!
I think the little Hope charm is a good match for this sentiment, don't you?
Something else, I don't have the in-color ink pads, so to sponge the curry color,
I scribbled the marker onto an acrylic block to pick up the ink for sponging!!!
Here are the supplies I used for this card:
