Hi everyone, took me all day but I finally got a card made for Steph's inspiration challenge! Thank you Denise for a very interesting site. This is my inpiration; http://www.wallpapercollective.com/p...al/bark-5.html
I used a piece of Kraft and with a T.H. handle and sponge applicator and swiped DI black soot across the cardstock. I stamped the fern, cut it out with a Spellbinder, sponged with DI antique linen while still in die. I added a green panel to the black card base. Mounted the fern image on my bark panel, added some twine and two buttons. Popped up on the green. Added the sentiment. TFL
Hugs Linda

Linda, what a beautiful CAS sympathy card. Sometimes simple is best and I think this is one of those times. Love the shimmer of your back panel. The touch of light spring green is an uplifting choice. Very elegant.

Oh, Linda, what a gorgeous bg you've created. I have no idea what a TH handle is, but you sure know how to use it. It's so soft and subtle; just fabulous with your image. Wow, now this is absolutley what I'm talkin' about.
