Hi friends! Today's IC373 is from a cute Etsy site, OctoPurse. While I didn't draw my inspiration from just one purse, I did find a definite trend in colors! Using purses like this: http://www.etsy.com/listing/98860140...ork-in-orange?, and this: http://www.etsy.com/listing/10703653...int-in-peachy? I realized that oranges and grays are big right now! With those colors in mind, I created this card which gives you a sneak peek at a set to be released Feb 1 by Our Daily Bread designs called "Chalkboard-Hymns". Instead of stamping the sentiment like a chalkboard I heat embossed it using clear ep on Colorbox Pigment Ink. The linen is a larger tag I cut eown, and the base is Groovy Guava, with the dp being MME Bramble Rose. The seam binding is hug snug gray, the wood button is Prima, and the crocheted flower is hand made.
Thanks so much for looking.

Grace, this is such a sweet and special design. You are so creative in using this wonderful chalkboard hymn stamp in the orange/gray color combination - simply STUNNING. This one gave me goosebumps of joy !! Hugs!
