Hi, everyone! This week's Inspiration Challenge is to find inspiration from Cox and Cox....I thought that this rug was so cool, with the blended colors and copper colored fringe. For my card, I began by copper embossing the Grunge Cross onto white cardstock. (Though this stamp set and coordinating die are retired from Our Daily Bread designs, I will not get rid of them since they are some of my faves for masculine cards.) I normally would have created the Wrinkle Free Distress background first and then added the copper embossing, but I am so happy that I did the embossing first. Once the inks (navy, green, brown) were smeared and spritzed onto a craft sheet, the raised embossing on the cardstock limited the saturation of the colors. I love how it turned out!! The inked panel was matted in white to balance the un-inked portions of the panel. A separate cross was copper embossed, inked in the same manner, then cut out with the coordinating die and popped up with foam tape. Brass brads and a metallic copper layer, along with a navy card base, rounded out the design. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

So much to love on this card. I love the copper cross....copper is a fave of mine. Your background and layers look wonderful. I love that sentiment, also.
