This is my card for today's IC425 challenge. Audrie took us to the Integrity Graphics site for inspiration. I just loved the journals on this site and am going to order a couple of them.
I chose this journal as my inspiration. I knew I had some dsp that had the gradient look of this journal. I am using SU's "venetian romance" collection. This piece is a crisp cantaloupe color.
I needed a sympathy card so that's the route I took with my card. My stamp is from OurDaily Bread Designs "never give up" set. I stamped the cross and flourish directly on my dsp. I then stamped the cross again on baked brown sugar cardstock and cut out with the matching die.
On my background brown sugar layer, I used the SU "tulip" ef. The sentiment is from the PTI set "round and round" and I stamped on a Spellbinders pennant flag.

Gorgeous, Mary! Your avant-garde paper and cross work so perfectly together, while your textured border softens the look beautifully. Wonderful sympathy card - so sorry that you need it.
